Description

A striking home combining a Grade II listed thatched barn and cottage set in a peaceful location Thatch is a charming and unique home, being a remarkable combination of spectacular volume under the stunning structure of a converted barn with the comfortable accommodation in the remainder of the property. Grade II listed, Thatch has been thoughtfully refurbished using wonderful natural materials and with great attention to detail and quality. The front door opens to a lobby leading to the two wings of the house. The kitchen is a beautifully fitted space with hand-made oak units under striking granite worksurfaces. The practical, U-shaped layout with a breakfast bar makes for a very workable space and there is still plenty of room for a table. Adjoining is a good-sized utility room with a cloakroom, where a door provides everyday access. At the end of this wing is the principal bedroom with windows looking to the garden, an en suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes providing a dressing area. Stairs rise to the first floor where two further bedrooms share an en suite bathroom with bath and separate shower. The fourth bedroom is set to the opposite end of the house adjacent to a cloakroom. The main reception space occupies the converted barn, which is a breathtaking space. Unspoilt or interfered with, the beautiful structure of the honey-coloured beams is laid bare to be admired. Areas of the space are divided by low ragstone plinths and majestic timbers - defined by timber and limestone floors - to make it a useable and practical space. Steps up from the lower level dining area lead to a bright space in front of the old cart bay, with a wall of tall windows giving lovely views over the garden and French doors opening to the outside. The sitting/family space is centred on a large fireplace housing a wood-burning stove. This property has 1 acres of land. Outside Thatch is tucked away in a peaceful location within a conservation area, close to the quintessentially English village green of Little Chart. The house sits at the end of a private road where a driveway leads to plenty of parking in front of the house and garage. This excellent building provides a double garage with a room above. Currently used for storage, it would lend itself well to conversion into an annexe or home office, subject to obtaining any necessary consents. The gardens provide a lovely setting for the house. Lawns stretch away from the house interspersed with mature trees and bordered by established hedges. Close to the house a ragstone wall surrounds what could be either a charming sunken garden or a fabulous pond. Situation Picturesque Little Chart benefits from a range of amenities in nearby Pluckley and Tenterden, with more comprehensive facilities in Ashford and Canterbury. There is an array of schools in both state and private sectors. The M20 provides excellent road access. Ashford International offers services to London St Pancras from around 36 minutes. Pluckley station connects to Ashford International and offers services to Charing Cross (from 76 mins). The area has good access to the Continent. Directions From the M20 (Junction 9): Exit and continue on the A20 for 2.8 miles then turn left onto Station Road. Proceed for 1.8 miles then turn right onto Ram Lane. You will find the property after around 0.2 mile.
