3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Pett Hill, Bridge CT4

Pett Hill, Bridge

Property Description: A unique property which was previously part of a larger farm estate and believed to date back to the 17th century. The house has only had three owners and was sold for the first time approximately 36 years ago. The location is convenient for the village and Canterbury, including good primary and secondary schools but yet feels hidden away.

Upon arrival, you are immediately struck by the property's secluded position, tucked away from the main thoroughfare yet accessible. Its location offers the best of both worlds: The peace and quiet of a rural setting combined with the vibrant community and excellent amenities of Bridge village, and the historic allure of Canterbury City Centre just a short drive away. The extensive and sensitive renovation, completed approximately ten years ago, has preserved many original features, imbuing the home with a distinct personality and warmth. Subsequent updates have further enhanced its appeal, ensuring it meets the demands of modern living.

The ground floor offers flexible living spaces, designed to adapt to various lifestyle needs. There are three distinct reception rooms, each offering its own unique ambiance and beautiful views of the surrounding gardens. The cosy snug, complete with a charming log burner, provides a warm and inviting space for relaxation during cooler evenings, perfect for unwinding with a book. A dedicated dining room offers an elegant setting for formal meals and family gatherings, while the spacious living room provides a versatile area for larger social events or simply enjoying the garden views.

On the first floor, you will find three generously proportioned double bedrooms, each offering comfort and privacy. The main bedroom is a true sanctuary, featuring its own dressing room. This versatile space is currently utilised as a home office, providing a quiet and dedicated area for remote work or study. There is also significant potential, subject to planning permission (STPP), to convert this dressing room into a luxurious en-suite bathroom, further enhancing the appeal and convenience. The remaining two double bedrooms are equally spacious and well-appointed and one has fitted wardrobes. There is also a wonderful family bathroom with a freestanding bath.
