De-L'angle Row, Chartham CT4

Set within the Chartham conservation area, 4 De-l’Angle Row is a characterful period cottage with a genuine connection to the village’s industrial past. De-l’Angle Row is understood to have been created as homes for working families associated with Chartham Paper Mill, part of the long-established mill heritage that helped shape the village.

Today, the cottage offers approximately 1,000.9 sq ft of adaptable accommodation arranged across three floors. It has been thoughtfully evolved for modern living while retaining its character and sense of place.

The ground floor is centred around a generous, open-plan living space. The former wall between the living and dining rooms has been removed, creating a more sociable setting for everyday life, entertaining and family time. The fitted kitchen sits alongside, while the living room enjoys a westerly outlook across the individually owned green garden to the front and the attractive period homes beyond.

A programme of works in 2002 introduced a rear dormer window, an additional bathroom and the open-plan ground-floor configuration. Further improvements include double glazing installed around 2020 and a gas boiler replaced in June 2022.

The first floor offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an en-suite to the principal bedroom. The principal bedroom also benefits from the westerly aspect across the front green. A further bedroom occupies the second floor, where exposed beams add a distinctive period touch and east-facing views look towards Chartham’s recreation ground.

Outside, the property benefits from two off-road parking spaces. To the rear is a terrace, shed and useful outside utility space. The large individually owned green garden to the front is an especially appealing and unusual feature for a village-centre cottage, providing a pleasing outlook as well as valuable outdoor space.

Chartham combines a close-knit village atmosphere with practical everyday connections. The station, recreation ground, village hall, convenience shop, post office and the River Stour walks are nearby, while regular buses run along Ashford Road. St Mary’s Church, a Grade I listed landmark whose present building dates largely from the late 13th century, is part of the historic village setting. Canterbury is approximately three miles away, with Ashford also readily accessible for wider rail connections to London.

The owner’s view of life in Chartham

“For 24 years my cottage has been the peaceful anchor of a deeply fulfilling life. Outside my door, the village beats as a vibrant hub of community, where familiar faces and local warmth makes every day feel connected. Yet, the wider world always remains within easy reach of my doorstep; whether the commute by train, the regular buses, or the quiet freedom of the cycle path to the City and beyond.”
