About this listing

This is one of my favourite spots in the countryside. Wonderful views and within walking distance of the village train station and a popular vineyard. -- Greg Wood, Director #TheGardenOfEngland Pett House being located within the Kent Downs National Landscape (formerly AONB) and just to the south of the North Downs Way National Trail (including the Pilgrims' Way). A substantial detached bungalow in an enviable rural setting, close to the village of Charing, enjoying stunning views and grounds extending to approximately ¾ of an acre. Being sold with no onward chain. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a large, individually designed private detached single storey property set in a very spacious plot in an exceptional location. This is the first time that the property has been on the market since it was designed and commissioned to be built by the previous owners in 1969. It provides comfortable living accommodation thoughtfully arranged to take maximum advantage of the magnificent south-facing far-reaching views across the gardens and adjoining farmland from the principal living spaces and bedroom. The property also benefits from an integral annexe at the far end of the accommodation, providing the potential for semi-independent living if required. Alternatively, the space could be readily incorporated back into the main accommodation, subject to any necessary works. The bungalow would benefit from some improvement and updating, whilst offering excellent potential for further enhancement and alteration, subject to the necessary planning consents. The property has been well maintained over the years, with a useful maintenance history available from the current owners. Colt Houses have undertaken a number of works and improvements over the past several years, providing a helpful record of the property's ongoing maintenance. Outside, a sweeping driveway leads to a generous parking area combined with a garage, car port and workshop. The plot wraps around the property and is a particularly attractive feature, with an immensely appealing front garden commanding the best of the property's views. To the rear, a patio leads onto a further lawn and an upper terrace, which was formerly home to a grass tennis court and offers an excellent opportunity for a variety of uses. Location Tucked away along a peaceful lane just half a mile from Charing’s village centre, this property enjoys lovely views over paddocks and open countryside. The village offers a mix of local shops, a restaurant, churches, a primary school, and a doctor’s surgery, with the historic Pilgrims' Way nearby which provides ready access to miles of scenic walks through the Kent countryside. Transport connections are excellent, with Charing station providing services to London Victoria and Ashford International. The M20 is easily reached via Junctions 8 and 9, while Ashford, just 5 miles away, offers a wider range of amenities and the high-speed train to London St Pancras in only 37 minutes.
