Whiffens Farm Barns is an exclusive development of four individual barn conversions built to an exacting standard in a secluded courtyard setting, yet located right in the heart of Borough Green. Within easy walking distance are the village’s shops, cafés, and Borough Green & Wrotham station, making this rare combination of tranquillity and convenience all the more appealing. Cob Cottage is a beautifully finished one bedroom end of terrace bungalow. As you enter via the hallway, you are led into the bright and airy living/dining/kitchen room where full width bi-fold doors open to a private patio garden. The open plan two-tone kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances for a sleek, modern feel. The double bedroom provides a comfortable haven, and the large contemporary shower bathroom offers a high standard of finish with both separate bath and shower cubicle. Underfloor heating flows throughout the property, complemented by double glazing, ensuring warmth and energy efficiency all year long. Outside, there is an allocated parking space and additional visitor parking within the development. Adjoining the impressive Grade II listed Whiffens Farmhouse, one of the village’s historic properties, Cob Cottage retains the charm of original barn features combining featheredge cladding, exposed stone and brickwork while offering all the benefits of a modern home. Due to its location it’s perfect as a first home, downsize, or weekend retreat, Cob Cottage combines heritage character with contemporary comfort in one of Kent’s most convenient and charming village settings, a truly rare opportunity not to be missed.
