An impressive detached family home in a prime Canterbury location

This attractive family home provides bright and spacious accommodation, combining traditional proportions with a contemporary open-plan layout. The accommodation is arranged over two generous, light-filled floors and features attractive neutral décor throughout.

The ground floor is centred around an impressive 32 ft open-plan kitchen, breakfast and family area, forming the heart of the home. The kitchen is well appointed with sleek, high-gloss units, a large central island, integrated appliances and a vaulted ceiling section with multiple skylights. Bi-fold doors allow for an abundance of natural light and open onto the rear terrace.

Complementing this space are two further reception rooms: a generous drawing room and a separate sitting room, both featuring fireplaces. The sitting room benefits from an elegant bay window, while the drawing room has direct access to the family area and opens to the rear garden via French doors. Practical requirements are well catered for, with a large utility room, a dedicated boiler room, a walk-in pantry and a cloakroom.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite offers a dressing room, an en suite shower room and French doors opening to a Juliet balcony overlooking the rear garden. There are three further bedrooms, one of which benefits from en suite facilities, while another features a front-facing bay window. A family bathroom with a separate bathtub and walk-in shower completes the accommodation.

This property has 0.28 acres of land.

To the front, a wide block-paved driveway provides ample off-street parking.

The rear garden is of generous size, divided into two sections by a mature hedge and covered seating area. The first section comprises a broad stone patio adjoining the house and an area of level lawn beyond, featuring mature trees and bordered by established hedging and fencing. A gateway leads to the rear orchard area. The grounds also include two sheds and a store.
