House For Sale £550,000
A stunning and uninterrupted countryside view as far as the eye can see is just one of the special attractions of this extended detached family home on the outskirts of Canterbury. If you enjoy rural life but also want to be near the city, this charming property could be top of your list.
Walking through the porch into the spacious open plan living area you can immediately feel the light and airy atmosphere and the delightful mixture of traditional and contemporary with underfloor heating and ceramic tiled flooring. There is a cosy lounge area with an attractive bay window, a dining area and a well fitted kitchen with glossy white units and a lovely red range cooker and a door to the extremely easy to manage good sized garden. A separate sitting room with oak flooring, a coved ceiling, a fireplace incorporating a wood burning and views across the fields also includes a projector and drop down screen for comfortable cinema viewing. Upstairs there is a light and airy family bathroom with a bath and separate shower as well as three double bedrooms with gorgeous views including bedroom one. This has a dressing area with fitted wardrobes and dressing table as well as a stylish en-suite wet room and double glazed doors to a Juliette balcony, so when these are open you can appreciate the views even more. There is a hard wearing resin based terrace outside the house as well as a substantial storage shed and a hot tub for relaxing at the end of a busy day. A pathway, flanked by lawns, leads to another special feature of this property. A large, self-contained cabin incorporating an open plan lounge/ kitchen with storage units and a built in cooker as well as bi folding doors to a decked terrace. There are also two double bedrooms and a double shower room, so makes this an ideal place for older children or as a guest suite or for offices if you want to work from home but not be interrupted by activities in the house. At the front of the property there is hard standing for about five cars and an attractive covered walkway to the entrance.
What the Owner says:
“It was the rural location that originally made us choose this lovely house and we have been delighted to extend it to provide more spacious accommodation and having the cabin has also been a real bonus. At the same time it is only a few minutes' drive to the retail park and supermarket in Wincheap and a short distance to the City centre with its unesco world heritage site historic buildings, high street stores and individual shops, theatres, universities, bars and restaurants as well as two mainline stations and the high speed rail that will get you to London within an hour.
There is also an excellent choice of grammar and private schools. For sporting enthusiasts there is the Roundwood Hall Golf Club along Stone Street or the Canterbury Golf club and Polo Farm Sports club on the outskirts of the city. If you enjoy horses, there is also Bursted Manor riding centre and excellent rides in Lyminge forest while cricket fans can watch their favourite players at the nearby St Lawrence cricket ground, home of Kent County Cricket. If you want to go further afield it is easy to get to the A2 for London or Dover and Folkestone for trips to the Continent.”
