50 Hopfields Road, Margate
There is something wonderfully special about a traditional timber cottage, particularly when it comes with a pretty garden, a peaceful country outlook and a location as sought-after as Margate. Set on approximately 1,275m² (just under one-third of an acre), 50 Hopfields Road is a charming and inviting property offering a relaxed lifestyle, established gardens and a delightful outlook across the lush green Hopfields, where cows graze peacefully in the surrounding paddocks. Believed to have been built in 1978, the home has a timeless character that feels reminiscent of an earlier era. Its traditional timber construction, central hallway and welcoming proportions create a sense of warmth and simplicity that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
A cottage with character and comfortable living.
Inside, the traditional layout centres around a welcoming hallway connecting three bedrooms, a central bathroom, a comfortable living room and a kitchen complete with pantry storage. Two generously sized bedrooms are positioned at the front of the home, where fencing along the front boundary provides welcome privacy from the road, creating a more secluded and peaceful feel. At the rear, an undercover entertaining area provides a wonderfully versatile extension of the home. With the laundry and a separate toilet conveniently located here, along with an additional room offering potential as a craft room, hobby space or creative retreat, there is plenty of scope to make the property your own.
Pretty gardens, practical spaces and room to explore.
Outside, the well-maintained gardens are a delight, creating a pretty and established setting to enjoy throughout the seasons. Brand-new fences and gates add further appeal, while a selection of sheds, including a garden shed, provides useful storage and workspace options. Adding to the property's practicality are two separate vehicle entrances, one on each side of the cottage, providing convenient access to the land. Whether you need room for additional vehicles, access to the sheds or simply greater flexibility in how you use the grounds, this is a valuable feature. There is also space to explore the possibility of adding a garage or carport, subject to the relevant approvals.

This lovely connection to the countryside creates a wonderful sense of space and tranquillity, while the property's location keeps you connected to the popular Margate community.
