Ashleigh Gardens, Blue Bell Hill, Chatham, ME5 9GF

Tucked away on a private gated road in the sought-after village setting of Blue Bell Hill, this three double bedroom end of terrace home delivers the sort of day-to-day ease that is hard to find, quiet, secure and private, with countryside walks on your doorstep and the A2 and M2 close by when you need them. Built in 2008 and beautifully looked after, the property has been a loved home for the current owners for the past seven years, with thoughtful touches that make modern living simple, including a Hypervolt EV charger neatly installed to the side of the house with a 10m cable.

Step inside and you are welcomed by an inviting entrance hall, a practical space that sets the tone straight away. To one side sits the kitchen, smartly fitted with warm timber-style cabinetry, generous worktops and under-cupboard lighting, with a gas hob and extractor, plenty of prep space and an easy flow that suits everything from quick midweek dinners to slower weekend breakfasts.

To the rear, the living and dining room is a bright, generous space with room for a proper dining table as well as a relaxing lounge area. French doors lead you through into the conservatory, a brilliant extension of the living space that works beautifully as a playroom, a calm reading corner, a home office, or simply a place to sit with a coffee and watch the garden change through the seasons. From here you step out to the west-facing rear garden, around 30 feet in length, private and not overlooked, a wonderful spot for afternoon sun that lingers into the evening. A decked area is ideal for summer meals and drinks, the lawn beyond offers space for children and pets, and the side access is a real bonus for bikes, bins and muddy boots. There is also a ground floor WC off the hallway, perfect when friends are round or family life is in full swing.

Up on the first floor, two genuine double bedrooms provide flexibility for growing families, guests, or working from home, served by a well-presented family bathroom. The top floor is a real highlight, a dedicated main bedroom suite with ensuite facilities and an exceptional amount of storage, with four separate eaves storage areas and a huge loft space that is part boarded, giving you that rare feeling of having somewhere for everything, without needing to sacrifice living space.

Outside, the private road setting brings a reassuring sense of calm, and the driveway to the front provides off-road parking, making arriving home effortless. Whether you are heading out for a woodland walk, enjoying the village atmosphere, or nipping straight onto the A2 or M2 for commuting, this is a home that offers space, privacy and convenience in equal measure, and one that feels ready to enjoy from day one.

What the owners say...

"I guess we loved the security of the private road, it feels safe. We loved the three double bedrooms so that no one had to compromise with a box room and the en suite in our room at the top of the house gave us a luxurious hotel feel"
