An exceptional Grade II listed period home, rich in character and beautifully positioned within easy walking distance of Canterbury city centre.
Arranged over several intriguing levels, this impressive four-bedroom property offers a wonderful combination of historic charm, generous proportions and versatile living space. Exposed timbers, an imposing Inglenook fireplace and an abundance of original features create a home with genuine atmosphere and individuality.
The accommodation opens into a substantial sitting room, where exposed beams and the magnificent Inglenook fireplace provide an immediate sense of the property's heritage and form a striking focal point to the room.
From here, stairs descend to the spacious kitchen/dining room, fitted with a range of units and offering ample space for a generous dining table – an inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a natural connection between the house and its outside space.
A further basement level is currently utilised for storage but presents exciting potential for those seeking additional flexible accommodation. Subject to any necessary consents, this characterful space could lend itself beautifully to a snug, games room, home office or hobby room.
The upper floors continue the property's distinctive split-level arrangement. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, benefitting from air conditioning and built-in wardrobes, while three further bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family life, guests or working from home. Two family bathrooms serve the upper accommodation.
Outside, the rear garden is a particularly appealing feature, extending to approximately 90ft (27.4m) and providing a substantial outdoor setting rarely found so close to the heart of the city. A paved seating area creates the perfect spot for al fresco dining and summer entertaining, with the remainder of the garden offering plenty of scope for relaxation, planting and family enjoyment.
The property also benefits from gas central heating.
Perfectly placed in the popular Wincheap area of Canterbury, the property enjoys the convenience of city living while remaining within easy reach of everyday amenities. Local shops and facilities are close at hand, including Morrisons supermarket, while Canterbury's historic city centre is within comfortable walking distance.
Canterbury offers an outstanding selection of independent shops, restaurants, cafés and cultural attractions, alongside excellent sporting facilities and a highly regarded choice of schools, colleges and universities.
For commuters, the city is served by two mainline railway stations, with Canterbury West offering High Speed services to London St Pancras in approximately 55 minutes. The A2 provides convenient road connections towards Dover and the M2 for London, while the beautiful East Kent countryside surrounding the city offers an abundance of walking and cycling routes.
A wonderfully individual period home combining remarkable character, generous accommodation and an enviable position within easy reach of Canterbury city centre.
