Ellen Close, Charing, Ashford, TN27

"I think the position of this modern house really does gives it the edge. It is the largest of the two storey five bedroom style houses on this popular development in Charing and has the bonus of a double carport as well as the double garage". - Philip Jarvis, Director.

Although built nearly twenty years ago, this house still retains a modern feel and offers well proportioned and arranged accommodation, ideal for a growing family or purchaser looking for space.

A particular feature of this house is the position within Ellen Close. It is found towards the bottom of the Development with an open aspect to one side of the front over a green space and a generous westerly facing garden to the rear.

The accommodation is arranged downstairs with a large reception hall and cloakroom. There is a sitting room overlooking the garden and a large separate dining room which the current owners use as a second sitting room. There is also a well fitted and extensive kitchen with a breakfast room area and useful utility room. The large study overlooking the front of the house completes the ground floor.

Upstairs there are five bedrooms. The master bedroom is 18ft long and has three double and a single built in wardrobe cupboard to one wall plus an ensuite shower room. The second bedroom also has an ensuite shower room and there are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The mature rear garden measures 50ft by 75ft with an extensive brick block patio area. The garden is laid mainly to lawn with a rose garden to one side. Within the garden is a large wooden summerhouse. The summerhouse is ideal for relaxing in or as alternative home office.

In addition to the double garage to one side of the home is a double carport which in effect with the wide brick block driveway creates eight parking spaces.

Charing is an ever popular village offering a wide range of amenities to include two village shops, a public library and Charing medical practice and pharmacy. Within walking distance, there is a primary school along with a railway station providing access to London Victoria and Ashford International station and then to London St Pancras via the High Speed service. Junction eight of the M20 motorway is approximately ten miles away providing access to London by road.
