House For Sale £550,000
Situated in the favoured St Dunstan’s area of the city, and on a street scene of similarly appealing historic buildings, Westgate Cottage is an attractive, timber-framed, black and white fronted cottage, believed to date from the 16th century. A comprehensive programme of refurbishment has seen the evolution of this home into a stylish dwelling where modern updates blend harmoniously with period features.
On the ground floor, the two front aspect reception rooms comprise a family room with brick-built fireplace and alcove shelving, and a sitting room with an impressive fireplace focal point creating a comfortable space in which to relax. The adjoining, dining area is the perfect spot for entertaining guests, with wall recesses cleverly repurposed to provide storage for logs. There is Phillips smart lighting throughout.
The kitchen is filled with natural light courtesy of a glass-roofed extension and glazed bi-fold doors, which open to the rear garden; the fittings are a blend of dark and light coloured cabinetry creating a striking, modern ambience, with Miele appliances. A breakfast bar between the kitchen and the conservatory offers a setting for informal dining and at the far side of this sunny room is an ultra-modern shower room.
There are three first floor bedrooms, two with the original fireplaces, together with a generous bathroom with bath tub and separate shower cubicle, and featuring contemporary wall panelling, with Grohe fittings. Two ladders give access to the attic rooms.
The city offers a wealth of cultural and leisure amenities, including the Marlowe Theatre, bars and fine restaurants, a major shopping centre, as well as many individual shops. Canterbury cathedral dates back to the 6th century and is considered one of the most impressive and well-known places of worship in the world. Excellent schools in both the private and state sectors, include King’s School, St Edmund’s School and the Simon Langton grammar schools.
Communication links are well-provided with the nearby A2 giving direct access to the motorway network, linking the M2 and M20. The city also offers a High-Speed commute from Canterbury West station into London, with other services to London Victoria and Charing Cross from Canterbury East.
Opportunities for outdoor activities such as walking, cycling and horse riding are available on the Kent Downs (aonb), which is renowned for its stunning landscape.
The rear garden has been designed to create a modern, outdoor room, with a terrace of paving adjoining the cottage which links seamlessly to the flooring in the conservatory. A decked platform within the paving, with built-in seating, offers an area to relax, dine and entertain whilst enjoying the south-westerly aspect.
Brick walls form the boundary on two sides and there is a lawned area which leads to a further raised deck at the far end of the garden, which frames a mature tree.
