4 bed detached house for sale

Ham Lane, Charlton Kings GL52

Old Ham Farm is a distinguished Grade II Listed home that strikes a careful balance between heritage architecture and refined, contemporary living. In 2000, the house underwent a significant and respectful restoration, combining the integrity of the original structure with a considered, high-quality extension. The result is a deeply comfortable, beautifully detailed home of over 3,000 square feet, where every aspect of modern life has been carefully accounted for without compromising on the character of the building.

Old Ham Farm sits centrally within its gardens, which have been carefully planted and maintained to provide year-round structure, colour and privacy.

A Cohesive Layout, Rich in Detail

A wide entrance lobby leads into a broad and welcoming central hallway, complete with flagstone floors and a large inglenook fireplace — creating a natural flow between the kitchen, reception rooms, and dining space. This hall forms the spine of the house and is substantial enough to double as a formal dining space or additional reception room.

The kitchen, positioned to the rear of the house, is practical and characterful. Fitted with bespoke painted units, granite worktops and a classic Aga and an island, the double doors open onto a south-facing paved terrace giving that indoors meets outdoors vibe. This link to the garden makes the kitchen ideally placed for summer entertaining.

Adjoining the kitchen is a formal dining room with sash windows and high Regency ceilings — an elegant space with a calm, balanced feel. On the opposite side of the hallway lies the principal reception area, cleverly designed as two interconnecting rooms.

And so to Bed Three Charming Bedrooms, All En Suite

The principal bedroom suite has a vaulted ceiling - its en-suite bathroom is generous and well appointed, with a freestanding bath, walk-in shower, and twin basins.

The two additional bedrooms — both doubles — are located in the older and Regency sections of the house. One, a particularly atmospheric room with exposed beams, features a few steps down to its en-suite shower room. The other is bright and spacious and benefits from high ceilings and sash windows, again with its own private bathroom.

The Annexe and Outbuildings

The annexe provides self-contained accommodation comprising a double bedroom, shower room, and fully-equipped kitchen and sitting room. It is ideal for guests, family, or as a short-term let (a use it has fulfilled successfully in the past).

Gardens and Grounds

The gardens at Old Ham Farm are integral to its character and have been thoughtfully designed to surround and soften the house.

These gardens have been developed with an understanding of the property’s setting and offer visual interest, biodiversity and privacy without being overly demanding in their upkeep.

The total plot, including house, annexe, garages and gardens, is in the region of 0.7 acres.
