In order to achieve this you need to re-template the chart. The standard chart template is as follows:

This details the location of the plot area, title, legend etc... It also included a hard-coded margin around the plot area, so you cannot achieve what you are after by simply styling the chart. If you just want a chart area and nothing else, you can simplify the chart template as follows:

xmlns:chartingprimitives="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.Charting.Primitives;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.Toolkit"


  
    
    
    
      
      
      
    
    
      
        
          
            
              
              
            
          
        
      
    
  

This will remove the padding that you are seeing.
