About this property

The Old Forge is a rare and enchanting period home, rich in character and full of quirky historic detail, from exposed beams and mellow brickwork to the original horse shoes that honour its past life as the village forge.

This chain free property offers remarkable versatility, beginning with a spacious front reception room / additional bedroom, once a shop floor, complete with its own entrance and large window that fills the space with natural light. A generous hallway leads to the recently fitted kitchen and through to a wonderfully atmospheric rear reception room, featuring a mezzanine level, timber beams, a newly installed shower room, and direct access to the garden.

Upstairs, two double bedrooms are complemented by a family bathroom and an additional flexible room ideal as a dressing room, nursery, office, bedroom or snug. The broad landing provides a charming reading nook, adding yet another layer of character. Outside, a good sized garden and valuable rear parking for multiple vehicles complete this unique offering.

Set in the sought after village of Ash, the home enjoys excellent local amenities including reputable schools, pubs, shops and everyday conveniences. Strong transport links connect easily to Canterbury, Sandwich, Thanet and Wingham, while the surrounding orchards and rolling countryside provide a beautiful backdrop to this distinctive and versatile historic home.
