Great Chart, Ashford

Capturing the perfect balance between semi rural living and being well positioned for easy access to both Ashford and Tenterden and it's transport links. 'There's more than meets the eye'' is an expression that is sometimes over used when it comes to property, but we feel it couldn't be truer here. Nestled away within a quiet residential lane, lies this unique home, standing proudly boasting over 4,000 sq ft of accommodation over two generous floors. A extremely well designed five / six bedroom, Grade II listed detached, former school that has been lovingly converted and restored over the years that has created what we feel to be a real one off family home; boasting large generous plot, a detached garage as well as ample parking; offering picturesque views that surround it.
This wonderful detached period home, built in the mid 1800's as a village school for the Godinton Estate. A charming blend of Ragstone walls and a Kent peg piled roof with Dutch gable ends. Originally, the building was home to the headmasters quarters and provided one bedroom and a further classroom for the children, the school was extended in the late 1900's to add a further educational space, following it's extension there had been a small parcel of land, donated by the village to the school, which is the war memorial you see from the front elevation following World War 1, a gesture to those that had served and lost their lives serving for their country. It is thought that the school had closed in the late 1990's when it was sold for re-development use, the current owners have lovingly restored and converted over a period of 24 months, the works completed spans from a a complete rework of the internal layout, to a re-laid roof, the installation of a second floor above where the two classrooms were located and offering a stylish reception room, yet still in-keeping with the tradition of the beautiful building.
