#TheGardenOfEngland

An immensely pretty, fully refurbished and extended period home combining original character with modern upgrades. The property retains its red brick façade and Dering windows while benefiting from a complete renovation including rewiring, replumbing, new heating, updated flooring, a new kitchen, cloakroom and bathroom. Walking distance to village train station.

No onward chain.

The entrance hall provides access to a ground-floor cloakroom and under-stairs cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine. A glazed door opens into a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room spanning the rear of the house.
The kitchen is fitted with white cabinetry, oak worktops and integrated appliances including induction hob, oven and dishwasher. A ceramic sink sits beneath an arched window overlooking the garden. Herringbone flooring runs throughout, and the room comfortably accommodates a full dining table. Bi-fold doors and a side door open directly onto the garden, creating strong indoor–outdoor flow.
The front living room features original-style windows and an open fireplace.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with a period fireplace. The bathroom is fitted with a white three-piece suite and roll-top bath with shower over.

Driveway parking is available for multiple vehicles. A side gate leads to a private, enclosed rear garden providing a good-sized outdoor space for seating, entertaining or gardening. A newly constructed wooden cabin provides additional storage or home working accommodation, as required. Location Pluckley is a quintessential Kent village, steeped in history and community spirit. The M20 motorway is easily accessible via Ashford or near Leeds Castle, while Dover is only around 30 miles away – making travel and commuting convenient. Ashford, with its shops, restaurants, and the awardwinning Designer Outlet (designed by Richard Rogers), lies just a few miles away, for all your everyday needs. Pluckley train station provides fast, direct services to Ashford in around 6 minutes, and to London (Charing Cross) in under an hour – with high-speed links via Ashford to St Pancras in just 36 minutes. Pluckley, known for its “chocolate-box” charm, offers a butcher, convenience store, “Good” primary school, and several traditional pubs. The village also boasts deep historical roots: its Grade I–listed Church of St Nicholas dates back to the Anglo Saxon period. The village name appears in the Domesday Book (“Pluchelei”), and the estate was once held by the Dering family, whose architectural signature, rounded “Dering” windows, remains iconic. But perhaps Pluckley’s most intriguing character trait is its reputation as Britain’s most haunted village, with reports of 10–17 ghosts, including the Red Lady, a phantom highwayman, and even a spectral horse-drawn coach. The churchyard, local woods, and old inns all feature in tales of hauntings, making the village a magnet for ghost walks and paranormal explorers. Pluckley remains deeply rooted in its past yet thrives as a tight-knit community. Green spaces, footpaths (including part of the long distance Greensand Way), and community events at the village hall further enrich village life.
