4 bed detached house for sale

Elliotts Way, Horsted Park, Chatham ME4

Tucked away at the quiet foot of Horsted Park, this striking four double bedroom detached home enjoys a wonderfully private setting and far reaching views over Horsted Valley. Designed with drama and light in mind, the distinctive architecture gives you soaring gables and generous panes of glass, so morning sun pours in and the landscape becomes part of everyday life. Two allocated parking spaces sit next to the house, in addition to plentiful visitor bays within the development.

The approach sets the tone, calm, green and beautifully kept, a world away from the bustle yet moments from everything you need.

Step into a wide, welcoming hallway where you feel immediately that the house has been cherished since its build in 2013. To the front, the contemporary kitchen pairs sleek white cabinetry with warm wood grain and stone worktops, neatly planned around integrated appliances and plenty of storage. It opens through to a fabulous orangery style dining room, a year round entertaining space with glazed roof and full height windows framing the landscaped garden beyond. The line between inside and out blurs perfectly here, friends gather at the table while doors open for summer suppers on the deck, and in cooler months you can linger with the garden still in view.

Flowing around to the rear, the living room stretches the width of the house and faces the valley, a peaceful grown up retreat with French doors to the terrace and space for large sofas. It is the sort of room that changes character with the seasons, bright and airy when the sun is high, cosy and intimate in the evening as the sky fades. A guest cloakroom completes the ground floor.

The first floor opens to an unusually large landing with a picture window that drinks in those valley views, a daily reminder of why this position is so special. Two double bedrooms sit here, one with fitted wardrobes, served by a fresh, tiled family bathroom. Rise again to the top floor and the sense of volume increases, the principal bedroom is a showstopper with dramatic gable windows and bespoke storage, waking up here feels like waking up to the countryside. A smart en suite with walk in shower keeps mornings effortless, and across the landing is another double bedroom with built in storage, ideal as a nursery, guest room or home office.

Outside, the garden has been thoughtfully landscaped for low maintenance enjoyment and privacy, enclosed by handsome brickwork and softened with raised planters. A sweep of artificial lawn keeps things tidy, while broad timber decking creates natural zones for lounging and dining, perfect for barbecues, children’s play and lazy weekend coffees in the sun. With the orangery doors open, the house hosts with ease, birthdays, Christmases and everything in between.

Horsted Park remains one of Chatham’s most sought after addresses, not your typical new build development, but a well planned community with open green spaces, play areas and ample visitor parking, all wrapped in a peaceful setting. From here you are close to local shops and everyday amenities, within reach of multiple school catchments, and perfectly placed for swift access to the A2 and M2 for London, the coast and beyond. At approximately 1,593 square feet, this is a home that balances style with substance, light with comfort, and privacy with convenience, offering a lifestyle that feels relaxed and refined from the moment you arrive. Viewings are strongly recommended to appreciate the outlook, the natural light and the unique design that make this house stand out.
