About this home

The Property Situated in a highly sought-after residential location in Canterbury, this beautifully extended 1930s detached family home offers an exceptional blend of character, space and modern-day living. Boasting four generous double bedrooms, versatile accommodation, and a private, unoverlooked rear garden, this impressive property is perfectly suited to growing families.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a spacious and inviting entrance hallway which sets the tone for the well-proportioned accommodation throughout. To the front of the property, the elegant lounge features a charming bay window, flooding the room with natural light and creating a warm and relaxing living space.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the kitchen and dining area.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The front offers a driveway providing off-road parking alongside access to the garage. To the rear is a beautifully maintained private garden which enjoys a high degree of seclusion and is not overlooked, offering an ideal setting for family life, outdoor entertaining and relaxation.
