Chartham Downs Road, Chartham

A charming three-bedroom end terrace home with stunning, far-reaching views over Chartham Downs, part of the Kent Downs AONB. You will be hard pushed to find such beautiful views to wake up to in the morning and with lovely countryside walks, woodland trails and cycling routes on your doorstep, the area is perfect for those who enjoy nature and outdoor pursuits.

The property benefits from off-road parking, with further parking available for residents and visitors. A particular feature is the substantial timber garden cabin to the side, complete with a kitchenette, wood-burning stove and WC, creating an incredibly versatile additional space.

Set back from the road behind a generous front garden laid to lawn, the house offers characterful accommodation with a distinctly cottage-like feel. High ceilings, sash windows and exposed floorboards are among the features that give the property its charm. There is also excellent potential to further enhance the house; a number of similar properties along the road have been extended to the side, suggesting scope to do the same, subject of course to the necessary planning permissions and consents.

Downstairs, you will find a spacious dual-aspect lounge/diner, with large sash windows either end flooding the room with natural light. Large sash windows at either end flood the room with natural light, while exposed floorboards and a wood-burning stove create a warm and inviting atmosphere, particularly during the colder months.

The galley-style kitchen features characterful quarry-tiled flooring, an integrated oven with gas hob, and space for a range of freestanding appliances, including a fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher.

Completing the ground floor is a modern bathroom, finished with crisp white metro-style tiling and comprising a bath with rainfall shower over, wash basin and WC.

Upstairs are three bedrooms. The main bedroom sits to the front of the property, where a large, double-glazed sash-style window frames the wonderful far-reaching view across the Downs. The room also retains an exposed brick former fireplace, adding an attractive character feature.

The second bedroom is a small double and incorporates useful open hanging space within the chimney recess, while the third is a single bedroom that would also lend itself perfectly to use as a nursery or home office.

OUTSIDE:

The property benefits from a good-sized rear garden, offering a wonderfully leafy and private setting bordered by mature hedging. A raised decked area provides an excellent space for al fresco dining and entertaining, while the central garden is laid to lawn, offering plenty of space for children to play.

To the side of the property is a substantial timber cabin, with French doors opening onto its own raised decked veranda. This is an exceptionally versatile addition to the home and could serve equally well as a dedicated home office, studio, hobby room, playroom or cosy retreat for movie nights in front of the wood-burning stove. The cabin is further enhanced by its own kitchenette and WC.

A gate at the rear of the garden provides access to the cul-de-sac behind, where the property has an allocated parking space. The current owners also park a second vehicle immediately outside their rear gate, while a residents` parking area at the end of the cul-de-sac provides further parking.
