A Fairytale Home in the Heart of Historic Aylesford
Tucked away on the picturesque High Street, this enchanting Grade II Listed cottage is brimming with character and period charm. Believed to date back to the early 1700s – with hints of an even older history revealed in some of its ancient beams – it’s a home steeped in story.
The welcoming sitting room features a working fireplace and leads into a charming library area, perfect for curling up with a good book. A separate dining room with a multi-fuel stove flows through to an extended kitchen/breakfast room, where French doors open onto a quintessential cottage garden. From here, a whimsical drawbridge provides access to the knoll by the river – a rare and magical feature.
Upstairs, a cosy snug with study area sits alongside a generous double bedroom and a beautiful, contemporary bathroom with freestanding bath, remotely controlled shower, and a striking feature window framing views of the river.
The top floor is home to a truly romantic bedroom, complete with vaulted and beamed ceiling, offering captivating views to the rear. There’s also a half cellar, ideal for wine storage.
Combining historic charm with modern comfort, this unique riverside retreat is perfect for those seeking a home with soul – and a touch of fairytale magic.
