House For Sale £650,000
This superb property has been beautifully extended and modernised to become a virtually brand new chalet bungalow. From the moment you turn into the impressive block paved outer driveway, flanked by slate tiled walls and raised shrub beds, you know this property has been updated to the highest standard. This feeling is emphasized even further once you park on the grey pebble frontage and see the property for the first time. Whether it is the pale walls and attractive cladding, the anthracite grey windows or the modern front door, there is something to admire wherever you look.
Once inside there is a feeling of light and space that flows throughout the ground floor, enhanced by the spacious open plan hall leading to the beautifully designed kitchen/breakfast room and the semi open plan dining room, with hard wearing wood effect tiled flooring that covers much of the ground floor. The modern kitchen/breakfast room has white units housing a variety of appliances, while the adjacent fitted utility room includes space for a large fridge freezer and washing facilities. The kitchen also incorporates a peninsula breakfast bar as well as sliding doors to an Indian sandstone terrace.
The dining room includes a large bay and the sitting room has a charming picture window overlooking the garden while the large porch has a built in coat and shoe cupboard. Also on the ground floor is a shower room and a double and single bedroom/study. There is a large understairs cupboard and an adorable inset pet bed. Halfway up the stairs is a wide shelving area and off the landing there is the family bathroom and three double bedrooms. Including the master with its en suite double shower and large dressing room. There is a boarded attic that provides additional storage facilities.
The outer pebbled frontage can accommodate about five or six cars while through the wooden gates there is room for a couple more vehicles on the inner driveway that leads to the double garage. From the terrace there are steps up to a lawn with shrub borders and a raised rear shrub bed.
What the Owner says:
"We have thoroughly enjoyed designing and creating this wonderful chalet bungalow. When we bought it as a detached two bedroom single storey property we knew it would be an excellent renovation and extension project as it is in such a great location. We really like this side of Canterbury as there is not so much traffic but we are close to all the amenities and can get on the A2 for London or Dover in about a minute. The property is just across the road from a large park and we can walk to Morrisons and Aldi and the surrounding retail park shops, while Wincheap provides a variety of individual shops, food outlets and pubs. There is the river Stour nearby and lovely places to walk the dogs.
We are on a bus route so are not far from the centre of Canterbury centre. It is a wonderful city with a wide variety of historic unesco heritage site buildings, high street stores and individual shops, numerous restaurants, bars and the cinema as well as the Marlowe and Gulbenkian theatres and two stations including Canterbury West with the high speed train to St Pancras that will get you to London in less than an hour. There are also excellent grammar and private schools, three universities and a further education college and plenty of opportunities for sporting enthusiasts with the Kent cricket ground nearby as well as a golf club, sports club and swimming pool".
