House For Sale £550,000
One Of A Kind | Stunning Views | Cottage Style | Very spacious | Lovely Family Home |
Miles and Barr are delighted to bring to the market this fabulous family home in Harbledown, which is a highly sought after hamlet where Kent’s beautiful Downs meet the edge of the magnificent City of Canterbury.
The property consists of two late 18th century cottages, both extended at the rear over both floors. One staircase was removed when the houses were made into one in 2001. This created fabulously spacious and flexible living accommodation; perfect for a family and for working from home.
The low maintenance user friendly outside social spaces make the most of the inspirational views and idyllic setting of the ancient trackway The Mint, which provides rear access to the property. The Mint is neighboured by sweeping fields of fruit, hops and vines and the historic Norman Chapel of St Nicholas founded in 1087.
The property’s ground floor comprises of a study, reception room, lounge, dining room and a large kitchen with a brilliant Britannia range cooker that is staying at the property. To the first floor you will find the family bathroom and four bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite. There is also a spacious landing that is ideal for another home working desk.
The amazing character of the property is matched by the beauty, convenience and accessibility of the location.
The home has been created and continuously improved with care and thoughtfulness by the current owners over four decades. It is lovely.
Please call Miles and Barr as the sole agent to arrange all viewings.
The property is situated within the city of Canterbury, being within easy access of the High Street and all its amenities. These include an excellent modern shopping centre, the University of Kent, Canterbury Christ Church University and other colleges, together with an excellent choice of schools in both the public and private sectors. In addition to the High Street is the Kings Mile, which is a lovely mall of boutique style shops, cafes, eateries and public houses. The property is only a mile from Canterbury Cathedral Precincts and the Cathedral comes into view only moments after walking out of The Mint.
