2 bed Flat For Sale £220,000
Old Dover Road, Canterbury CT1

Sally Hatcher Estates are pleased to offer you the opportunity of purchasing this light, bright and recently redecorated two bedroom apartment that is on the penultimate floor within this attractive and imposing period town house located on the sought-after Old Dover Road. As you step through the main entrance door into the hallway you are greeted by original features of this grand building, such as the cornice moldings and a very impressive staircase.

Renovated in recent years, to include a new quality kitchen and bathroom, the first thing that you notice is the light and airy feel of the apartment, which in part is due to the fact that it is treble aspect. The high ceilings, skirting boards, 6-pane sash windows and the period fireplace, with a marble surround, reflect the grandeur of bygone times and yet there is a modern twist to the theme within the apartment which keeps it contemporary to include the recent redecoration works, stainless steel cover plates and downlighters. Canterbury’s many attractions are just a short walk from the apartment and in fact you can be within the City Walls in less than 10 minutes. The city effortlessly combines its unesco World Heritage Site status with a lively shopping, bar and restaurant scene, along with its first-rate schools, colleges and universities. Rail connections include High Speed 1 services to London St Pancras International from Canterbury West Station. Convenient local road connections mean that Ashford International station, the Eurotunnel and the UK motorway network can all be easily reached. Estate Agents often quote that the 3 things that sell a property are ‘location, location and location’ and when considering that this apartment has everything that Canterbury has to offer on its doorstep and it is highly likely that this adage will prove to be the case. To sum up, an exceptional apartment in a fantastic location close to the city centre.
