A Stylish, Contemporary Home in an Idyllic Setting
A beautifully presented modern family home backing onto fields which has recently been constructed to a high standard with a fine specification, situated well back from the road in the popular North Downs village of Challock with good access to many destinations.
Completed in 2018, Rock Cottage is an attractive, modern home with brick and tile-hung elevations, a clay-tiled roof, and charming architectural details, including a semi-octagonal breakfast room with red brick quoins and a timber-framed porch.
Inside, the layout is both practical and inviting. The spacious entrance hall leads to a cloakroom, study, and the heart of the home: a beautifully appointed kitchen/dining room. Featuring granite worktops and soft-close units, the kitchen includes integrated NEFF appliances (double oven, induction hob, warming drawer), a Smeg sink with boiling tap, and a full suite of integrated fridge, freezer, and dishwasher. French doors in the bright dining area open directly to the garden. The utility room includes granite counters, a fitted washer and dryer.
The sitting room features a solid-fuel stove and bi-fold doors to the rear terrace.
There are four double bedrooms, including one on the ground floor with its own en-suite—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs, the main bedroom enjoys far-reaching countryside views and a private en-suite bathroom. Two further double bedrooms share a well-appointed family bathroom.
Set in the charming village of Challock, within the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Rock Cottage enjoys easy access to Ashford, Canterbury, and excellent transport links. Ashford International offers high-speed rail to London in just 37 minutes, while the M20 and nearby A-roads ensure fast road connections.
The property is approached via a shared driveway leading to a private gravel drive and a timber-framed double garage with one open bay. A paved path leads around to the enclosed rear garden, which features a lawn, large patio terrace—ideal for outdoor living, established flower beds and further patio sited to enjoy the evening sun.
