5 bed detached house for sale

Beech Avenue, Canterbury CT4

A substantial five-bedroom detached residence offering almost 2,300 sq. Ft of immaculately presented accommodation, whilst occupying a desirable position with a stunning, well-established, south-facing rear garden.

The property was built in the early 2000s and has remained with one family for the past 20 years, who have lovingly maintained the property to an exceptional standard. The accommodation is generously proportioned and well-configured, offering multiple reception rooms balanced with five double bedrooms and three updated bathrooms.

The house is elevated within Beech Avenue, featuring an attractive front garden and a large, sweeping driveway. The front door opens into an elegant central entrance hall with a cloakroom and stairs to the first floor.

To the rear of the property is a charming open-plan kitchen/dining room, fitted with an array of wall and floor units that integrate many main appliances and are finished with Formica worktops. The space is further enhanced by a breakfast bar and a well-appointed utility room, which has ample space for laundry appliances and provides access to both the garage and the garden.

The living room is complete with a wood-burning stove set into the wall with a stone surround. A double-glazed conservatory complements the living space, accessible via internal French doors.

The ground floor also includes a study and an additional reception room, currently used as a sitting room but equally suited as a playroom.

The south-facing garden is a wonderful asset to this home and is one of the largest plots on this development.
