Cookham Farm is located on the outskirts of the beautiful village of Chelsfield. It is a smallholding on the southern side of Skeet Hill Lane and occupies a south-facing site of close to 6 acres. The smallholding lies within the Green Belt.
The main dwelling is a three bedroom detached Cottage which was built shortly after World War 1.
The accommodation in the Cottage comprises hallway, lounge/dining room, galley kitchen, ground floor bathroom, separate WC on the stairway landing and three bedrooms, all with views out to the open countryside on the first floor.
To the east of the Cottage is a detached Annexe which could be used as a self contained unit but may be possible to split and use as a dance studio/gym and accommodation. The Annexe includes a large Reception Room and second Reception Room, both could be split and used as a dance studio. There is a fitted Kitchen, Bedroom, Bathroom, Storage Room and Loft. A large deck on the east of the Annexe looks out over open country and is a perfect spot to relax in the evening.
Additional outbuildings include a large Open Barn, a Pole Barn, a double garage and the footings and structure of large greenhouses previously forming a market gardening business. All the buildings enjoy views across open countryside.
The nearest rail station is Chelsfield, which is in Zone 6 and offers a fast route of just 18mins to London Bridge, then on to Waterloo East and Charing Cross. Chelsfield rail station and Orpington town centre are both 6 mins away, with an array of amenities including a superstore, Walnuts Leisure Centre, Odeon cinema and the mainline Orpington rail station also with links to London. There is also ready access to Junction 4 of the M25, less than 3 miles away, accessing major road networks plus Gatwick and Heathrow airports.
The property is serviced by mains electricity and water and cesspit drainage. Both the Cottage and the Annexe benefit from solar panels.
The paddocks and land would suit equestrian use or offer grazing for a variety of livestock.
