Stour Road, Chartham

A delightful chalet bungalow located in a peaceful cul-de-sac in the heart of Chartham, close to the village green, shop and mainline train station. The village has a wonderful sense of community, with fantastic amenities including two doctor`s surgeries, an active church and village hall, which has a regular timetable of classes and events to get involved in, which include pilates and coffee mornings.

The property occupies a good-sized corner plot and has a gate to the rear, leading to a garage and off-road parking. The current owners have made vast improvements to the property, including a new kitchen, new bathroom, a complete re-design of the garden and they have built a large garden room, which would make the perfect work from home space.

The front door is to the side of the property and opens into porch, leading to a spacious entrance hall, which is nicely decorated with wooden panelling. You then have a door to the left, which leads to a double bedroom and a door to the right which leads to a utility room with a WC. If someone wished, the utility room could be converted into a downstairs bathroom/wet room. A door then opens into a spacious lounge/diner which has an open-plan feel but has been skilfully sectioned into living and dining areas. The chimney breast has been tastefully decorated with natural wooden panelling and features a wall-mounted electric fire. The lounge has a pleasant outlook to the garden and there are french doors opening out.

A door from the lounge then opens into the kitchen, which overlooks the garden. The kitchen is beautifully appointed, and has a range of contemporary grey-gloss units and marble-effect worktop. There is plenty of storage and there is an integrated double-oven and dishwasher.

Upstairs, you will find two double bedrooms both of which have lovely views of fields to the rear, and a family bathroom. The bathroom is stylish and has a large bath with a shower over. There is storage in the eaves and a generous cupboard off the landing.

OUTSIDE:

The current owners have re-designed the garden, creating a wonderful low-maintenance outdoor space which has a south-westerly aspect. Raised wooden sleepers separate the patio area, an ideal space for alfresco dining, and there is a covered store for bins and recycling. There is a shingle area, where the current owners have a hot tub which could stay further to negotiation. There is another section which has been fenced off, which is laid to lawn and has raised wooden flowerbeds, currently full of colourful flowers.

There is a large garden room which has an attractive grey cladded façade and french doors. This room is has been insulated, and has electric heating and a good amount of power points. For anyone who works from home, this would make an ideal office space, separate from the main house, or a hobby/games room. The pool table shown in the photos can also stay, further to negotiation. A gate to the side of the house provides access into the garden and there are double wooden gates to the rear providing access to the garage which measures 16`4 x 8`8, and off-road parking in front. The garage has power to it and it has its own fuse box.
