Nelson Gardens, Faversham
An enchanting two-bedroom cottage, creatively extended and significantly enhanced by the current owners, who possess an eye for detail and a passion for renovation. Now offering over 700 sq. ft. of artistically presented living space, the property also features a generous enclosed garden with fruit trees and a hidden alfresco dining area.
Built in 1834 as one of the brick workers' cottages, Nelson Gardens is a row of pretty cottages in a highly sought-after location, peacefully tucked away off Nelson Street and The Mall, just moments from the train station and the medieval town centre.
The cottage exudes character, with exposed brickwork, stripped floors, latch-key doors, and intricate cast-iron fireplaces. These original features blend seamlessly with the modern conveniences introduced during the extensive renovation, where fine materials, elegant décor, and meticulous craftsmanship are evident throughout.
The contemporary kitchen, beautifully designed within the vaulted extension, complements the property perfectly. A luxury bathroom has been repositioned, and no detail has been overlookednew wooden sash windows have been fitted to the front, low-energy lighting has been installed, a brand new Valliant boiler with column radiators and additional roof insulation ensures the cottage remains both charming and exceptionally energy-efficient.
The front door opens into a cosy sitting room, highlighted by a striking fireplace and original alcove cupboards. An inner hallway, with exposed brickwork, leads to the open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, which forms part of the thoughtfully designed extension. Vaulted ceilings with skylights allow natural light to flood the space, while a range of wall and floor units integrates high-end appliances, including a double Neff oven, gas hob, extractor hood, fridge-freezer, and dishwasher. Oak worktops, under-pelmet lighting, and metro-style tiles complete the modern yet timeless look.
The repositioned bathroom features a walk-in shower, WC, and basin, all finished with ceramic tiles. A staircase leads to the cellar, where the exposed brick walls and quirky cupboards add to the character. Currently used as a cinema room, it would also make an excellent home office or playroom.
The stairs, with painted risers and bare wood treads, lead to the first floor, where two generously proportioned bedrooms await.
