Property description
This is your chance to own a slice of Faversham history! One of the oldest medieval roads in Britain, Abbey Street is highly sought after in this area. This house, formally two cottages, is believed to form part of the inner gatehouse to Faversham Abbey that dates back to the mid 1100s.
The ground floor of this charming home is predominantly built of stone, with some flint and brickwork, and the upper storeys are weather boarded under a traditional Kent peg-tiled roof.
The interior of the property shows a wealth of character, with many original features including an unusual central staircase. The lounge area has an attractive fireplace with a wood burning stove which will help to create a cosy atmosphere during the winter months. There is a door from here into the walled garden, with its mature trees and borders, and a hot tub for extra relaxation.
The dining area, which also has a wood burner, and the kitchen are designed to make entertaining easy as the cook can remain involved in the conversation all the time. The 4 bedrooms are arranged over 2 floors and have many appealing features including fireplaces and ceiling beams.
This would be an ideal property for those looking for a characterful home with a rich history. Abbey Street is only a short stroll away from the town centre with its variety of shops, bars and restaurants. There are colourful and vibrant markets 3 days a week, and many local events.
