Located in the very heart of Canterbury, The Coach House presents a rare opportunity to acquire a charming and versatile property, currently operating as a successful boutique guesthouse. Offering seven individually arranged guest rooms, a mix of comfortable doubles and family rooms, some with private ensuite facilities, the property blends period character with commercial potential in one of the city's most desirable locations.

Guests are welcomed into a communal lounge and dining area, with a compact but functional shared kitchen serving the property. To the rear, a communal garden provides valuable outdoor space for relaxation, a sought-after feature in this central setting.

Additional facilities include a useful basement cellar, providing staff accommodation alongside extensive storage and service areas, enhancing the property’s operational efficiency.
Outside, four dedicated parking spaces to the front of the property offer significant convenience for guests, an uncommon asset in this prime urban location.

Situated within easy walking distance of Canterbury’s historic cathedral precincts, pedestrianised shopping streets, and popular restaurants, The Coach House enjoys excellent connectivity for both tourists and business visitors. Canterbury West station, providing high-speed rail links to London, is within close proximity, while excellent road access opens up the surrounding Kent countryside and coastal towns.

Importantly, the property offers considerable potential for alternative use or development. Subject to the necessary planning consents, The Coach House could be reconfigured back into a single residential dwelling or redeveloped into multiple apartments, capitalising on the generous plot and central setting. The property was originally two residential buildings, which could likely be reinstated with planning permissions. The substantial basement and existing configuration provide flexibility for imaginative reworking, presenting the opportunity for significant uplift in value. Whether maintained as a profitable guesthouse or redeveloped for residential use, this is a property offering genuine scope for substantial returns. *Open to different financing options*
A distinctive and rarely available proposition in the heart of Canterbury.
