Description
Property Description: Guide Price £700,000 - £750,000. Built by David Wilson Homes in 2016 and owned by the same family from new, this substantial detached home occupies a particularly appealing position within a small development of just 61 properties in the village of Charing. Its generous established garden, outlook towards the meadow and detached double garage give it a sense of space that is not always associated with a modern development, while the village centre, primary school and railway station are all close by.
Carefully maintained and upgraded over the years, the property has over 1,750 square feet of accommodation, complemented by a substantial detached double garage, providing over 2,200 square feet in total.
A wide entrance hall sets the tone for a particularly well-balanced ground floor. The principal living room is positioned to the rear, with French doors opening directly onto the garden. This is a comfortable separate reception room, particularly suited to quieter evenings away from the more sociable kitchen and dining space.
The kitchen/dining room is one of the defining areas of the house. Fitted by Nolte, the contemporary cabinetry is complemented by an extensive range of integrated appliances including AEG ovens and six-burner gas hob, Bosch dishwasher, integrated fridge/freezer and wine cooler. There is plenty of space for a substantial dining table, while a broad run of glazed doors opens onto the extended terrace and frames the garden beyond. Heat-reflective integrated blinds have also been fitted to the kitchen glazing. A separate utility room continues the same cabinetry and flooring as the kitchen, keeping laundry and household appliances neatly away from the main living space.
There are two further reception rooms on the ground floor. The front room, with its bay sash window and shutters, provides a more formal dining or sitting room, while the separate study/snug gives the house valuable flexibility for working from home, hobbies or a quieter family room. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly light with windows on three sides and views towards the meadow, together with fitted wardrobes that were updated in 2026. Its en-suite has both a bath and separate shower, while the second bedroom also has its own en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms share the family bathroom. The quality of the bathrooms is consistent throughout, with Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware, contemporary fitted storage and extensive tiling. Sash windows and fitted shutters feature throughout much of the house, adding a more considered finish.
Outside: the rear garden is arguably one of the home's strongest features. Established planting has matured beautifully around a broad lawn, creating colour and structure while retaining plenty of usable space for children and family life. An extended paved terrace immediately behind the house provides a generous setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, with the garden opening towards the meadow at the rear. Despite its size, there remains scope to explore extending the house further to the rear without sacrificing the majority of the garden, subject of course to the necessary consents. Parking is particularly generous with a gated driveway providing space for up to four cars which leads to the detached double garage, which has power, lighting and useful loft storage.
Location: Charing is a small but lively village in the Ashford District of Kent, situated at the foot of the North Downs. The village is sited on the Pilgrims' Way from London to Canterbury and is still surrounded by farmland, but the good transport links have also led to the area becoming a popular commuter village. Charing station has connecting services to London St Pancras via Ashford International in 37 minutes or London Victoria station in approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes. The village has a strong community life and the locals organise regular fairs, community and charity events. On the High Street you will find two corner shops, a micropub and a butcher. Charing CQC Outstanding rated GP Surgery and chemist are less than 0.4 miles from the property and Charing Church of England Primary School is also just 0.4 miles away. Charing's most famous building is the Archbishop's Palace, which lies by the church and was an ancient possession of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The market town of Ashford is just a short drive away where there are excellent shopping opportunities with the McArthur Glen designer outlet. Supermarkets include a Waitrose and a large Sainsbury's.
