Woodsmith House, Pluckley Road, Ashford, TN27 0AG

Pluckley Road, Charing Property Description: Guide Price £800,000 - £850,000.

Set against an open countryside backdrop on the edge of Charing, Woodsmith House is a substantial five-bedroom detached home where the connection with the garden and surrounding landscape is central to the way the house feels.

Built in 2020 with a 10 year Build Zone warranty from new, and set within approximately 0.2 acres, the property combines generous family accommodation with a beautifully landscaped rear garden and far-reaching views across the adjoining fields.

A gated entrance opens onto a large driveway with parking for several vehicles, while the house itself sits comfortably within its plot.

Inside, the accommodation extends to approximately 2,024 square feet and has been designed with everyday family life in mind, with three distinct reception areas alongside a particularly sociable arrangement of kitchen, living space and orangery.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the ground floor, fitted with contemporary cabinetry and integrated Zanussi appliances including a double oven, a dishwasher and an induction hob.

It opens naturally into the main living room, creating an easy flow between the two spaces, while a separate dining room provides somewhere more defined for mealtimes.

A snug gives the house another useful reception space, whether used as a quieter sitting room, television room or playroom. At the rear, the orangery is one of the defining features of the house.

A large sky lantern draws light through the room, while bi-fold doors can be opened across the rear to bring the terrace and garden into the living space.

With the countryside visible beyond the garden, it is a room that makes the most of the setting throughout the year. Practicality has also been well considered.

A separate utility room keeps the day-to-day workings of the house away from the main living areas and includes a water softener, while there is also a ground floor cloakroom.

Zoned underfloor heating runs throughout the property and the house was constructed to a high thermal standard, reflected in its EPC B rating.

Upstairs are five bedrooms, giving plenty of flexibility for a larger family, guests or home working.

The principal bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.

There is also further potential within the house, with the vendor identifying the loft as a possible opportunity for conversion into additional bedroom and bathroom accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside: The rear garden is a particularly important part of Woodsmith House.

Extending away from the house towards open fields, it has been thoughtfully landscaped with a large terrace for outdoor dining, established planting, trees, decorative lighting and a water feature.

A pathway leads through the garden towards the countryside beyond, creating a strong sense of depth and separation from neighbouring homes.

Two sheds provide useful storage and can be reached via the side access. There is further scope externally too with previous plans were drawn up for a detached garage to the front of the property.
