The House
At its heart, this is a home designed for family life. The living spaces flow naturally, creating plenty of opportunities to spend time together while still allowing everyone their own space when needed.
The main sitting room is warm and welcoming, while a separate dining room provides an ideal setting for family meals and entertaining. A substantial additional reception area, currently used as a further lounge and gym, offers exceptional flexibility and could easily adapt to suit a variety of lifestyles and requirements. This area also benefits from its own shower room.
A particular highlight of the property is the versatility of the ground floor accommodation. Glass double doors link the principal reception rooms, allowing them to function either as separate rooms or as one impressive, light-filled living environment extending across the entire ground floor.
The spacious family lounge features three bifold doors opening directly onto the mature garden. During the warmer months, opening the bifold doors and internal glass doors creates a seamless connection between the house and garden, enhancing the sense of space, light and flow throughout the home. The result is an outstanding setting for both everyday family life and larger-scale entertaining.
The kitchen has been designed to balance practicality with style, featuring maple worktops and a range of quality appliances, including a fridge freezer, dishwasher, fan oven and multifunction built-in microwave. It is very much a kitchen designed for everyday family living rather than simply a showpiece.
Beautiful travertine flooring extends throughout the ground floor, bringing warmth, character and continuity to the principal living areas.The principal residence provides four generously proportioned bedrooms, offering an excellent balance of family living and personal space.
Three of the four bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite facilities with the fourth bedroom served by a family shower room.
Occupying the top floor, the principal suite feels like a private retreat, complete with its own en-suite bathroom and contemporary glass-fronted balcony overlooking the mature garden below.
An additional room could serve as a dressing room or study.
The house benefits from modern heating and cooling systems, including ground-floor climate control, which provides efficient heating or cooling depending on the season.

One of the property's features is the integrated two-bedroom annexe.
Connected to the principal residence, while also capable of functioning independently, it offers a level of flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find. The accommodation includes its own kitchen, incorporating a fridge freezer, dishwasher, fan oven and multifunction built-in microwave, together with an open-plan living and dining area, two bedrooms, a shower room and a separate WC.
Ideal for older children, grandparents, guests or multi-generational living, the annexe provides independence without separation and can easily adapt to changing family circumstances.

The garden is a real highlight of the property. Larger than many gardens associated with modern homes, the established plot offers a wonderful sense of privacy and space, with mature planting creating a peaceful backdrop throughout the seasons.
Productive areas, including raised vegetable beds and a large greenhouse, will appeal to keen gardeners, while there is ample space for children to play, summer entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors.
For practical storage, there is a bike shed, garden shed and tool shed, providing excellent space for outdoor equipment, gardening tools and recreational gear.
A detached, fully insulated and double-glazed home office is positioned within the garden, creating an ideal dedicated workspace for remote working, creative pursuits or operating a home business.
The driveway provides off-road parking for up to five vehicles and benefits from an EV charging point.

The Location


Blean is a rare village that offers the best of both worlds. There is a strong sense of community, excellent local amenities and highly regarded schools, while Canterbury, the coast and beautiful countryside are all close at hand.
One of the greatest attractions of living here is the proximity of the ancient Blean Woods. Within minutes of the house are miles of woodland trails, together with a network of single-track mountain bike routes, which can be explored on foot or by bike. This makes the location particularly appealing to walkers, runners, cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts.
For families, the area is especially well regarded for education. The property falls within the catchment area for Canterbury's highly respected grammar schools, including the Simon Langton schools, while independent schools such as St Edmund's, Kent College and The King's School are all easily accessible. Outstanding-rated Blean Primary School is also nearby, whether reached by car or via the scenic National Cycle Route.
Canterbury city centre is only a short drive away, offering an excellent range of shops, restaurants, cultural attractions and high-speed rail services to London.
