* EPC ordered *
A splendid 1930's semi-detached home with driveway parking and a garage, offered to the market with no forward chain. Situated in a highly desirable and exceptionally peaceful cul-de-sac in South Canterbury, this treasured family home enjoys prime location for access to both Langton Grammar Schools and St. Anselm's. It is an area popular with medical professionals, due to the close proximity of both the Kent & Canterbury Hospital and the Chaucer Hospital, both of which are a very short walk away.
The front door opens into an entrance hall with hardwood flooring, which has been laid throughout most of the ground floor. A door to the left opens into a delightful sitting room which enjoys plenty of natural sunlight which pours in from the beautiful bay window. An open fireplace and picture rails give the room that 1930's character, a snug space to enjoy cosying up in front of the television on a cold winters evening. The hallway then continues, with another door to the left opening into a dining room, which also has a feature fireplace and a set of French doors into the garden room to the rear.
Through to the kitchen, which has a range of wooden cabinets giving it a rustic, country cottage' feel. There is an integrated oven with an electric hob and space for a dishwasher and washing machine under the cabinets. There is also enough space for a small dining table however, we imagine that in time, new owners will want to look at knocking through to the dining room, to create a larger open-plan kitchen/diner. They may even want to take it a step further and extend to the rear to create an even larger space, an option which the current owner would look at doing if she were staying. The property offers an excellent opportunity for someone to put their own stamp on it. A door from the kitchen leads out to the garden room, a pleasant area to sit and relax looking out to the garden. This would also be a great area for those who have dogs! You also have an internal door from the kitchen into the garage which is a good size and has power and lighting.
Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms, two of which are doubles and a family bathroom which features a bath with a shower over. The main bedroom, situated at the front has a lovely bay window.
Outside:
To the rear, you will find a generous garden which really is a blank canvas for someone to create their own ideal space! Whether you are a gardener who wants to fill it with gorgeous plants and veg, or you may love to host and want an easy, low-maintenance garden with a large area for BBQs and summer parties, it is such a versatile space. The garden enjoys plenty of privacy with just a single-storey hospital building to the rear.
Location:
The property is situated on Canterbury's desirable south side, popular amongst families due to the close proximity of both Langton Grammar Schools and St. Anselm's Catholic School. Both of the Langton Schools are within a 10-minute walk of the property, and you have some good primary schools in the area and in the nearby villages including Bridge. It is within a short walk of both the Kent & Canterbury and Chaucer Hospitals, as well as the famous Spitfire Cricket Ground, where you can take in a cricket match or enjoy the amenities at the grounds, including a Sainsbury's Local and a lovely independent café, which serves artisan coffee and delicious lunches.
The area of South Canterbury offers quick access into the City Centre but enjoys a quieter residential feel, with easy access to the beautiful countryside and villages surrounding Canterbury, with nearby villages including Bridge and Bekesbourne.
It is quick to get onto the A2 commuter route from here, and there is a bus stop a short walk away, where you can catch buses into the City Centre and the coastal market town of Hythe. Canterbury has two mainline train stations, with the West Station offering the high-speed service to London St. Pancras.
