3 Bed Semi-detached house For Sale

A beautifully presented and sympathectically extended three bedroom semi-detached cottage with grounds totalling 0.5 acre including paddock, stabling, detached double length garage and additional private off road parking, situated in a semi-rural position on the outskirts of the popular village of Pluckley with outstanding countryside views.

Originally believed to be a farm worker's cottage, this now elegant family home has been extensively updated and improved by the present owner who clearly possesses an eye for detail and style.

The well-planned accommodation comprises an entrance hall, sitting room with feature fireplace, elegant dining room with french doors leading onto the rear patio, downstairs cloakroom, a wonderful Shaker style fitted kitchen with secret hidden utility/pantry area, three double bedrooms and a beautiful four piece bathroom suite with, arguably, one of the best countryside views to be had from a bath!

Outside, there is a private courtyard style patio deck to the rear of the house and a generously proportioned 0.47 acre garden and paddock situated over the lane featuring an L-shaped stable block with power and water and a home office/studio with wonderful views.

There is ample off road parking on a gravelled hardstanding for four to five vehicles along with a detached brick double length garage, which has potential, subject to planning permmision, for conversion.

The property is situated on the outskirts of the very popular village of Pluckley. The village enjoys historic pubs, Church, Post Office & General Stores, butcher's shop, farm shop and a well-respected primary school. The area is rich in natural beauty with an abundance of public footpaths and horse riding routes, providing an amazing playground for the outdoor enthusiast, with country walks directly from the front door.

The larger villages of Charing (2.6 miles) and Headcorn (7.6 miles) offer a wide variety of shopping and leisure options and both benefit from main line railway stations with services to Victoria and Ashford (Charing) and Charing Cross and Ashford (Headcorn). Ashford International Station is 7.6 miles (via A20) to the east of the property with its high speed 37 minute Javelin service to London St Pancras and Eurostar connections to the continent.

For a larger range of shopping, leisure and schooling facilities, the county town of Maidstone is 16 miles to the west and Ashford, 7.5 miles to the east.

Convenient access to the motorway network can be found at junction 9 of the M20, just 6.5 miles away, giving access to London and the Kent coast.

Properties such as this do not often appear on the open market and, as we anticipate a great deal of interest in this particular property, we strongly urge any interested applicants to make immediate arrangements to view.
