House For Sale £700,000
Property Description: Guide Price £700,000 - £750,000. This wonderful eco-friendly family home is situated in a popular cul-de-sac on the south side of Canterbury close to the city centre, local transport links and great schools. It is perfectly located for everything a growing family could want and has beautiful countryside views to the rear. The house has been renovated and extended to an extremely high standard with wooden flooring throughout and Passivhaus technology which aims to reduce the need to heat the building to such an extent that you do not need a conventional heating system. Fifteen solar panels on the south-facing roof generate both electricity and hot water, dramatically reducing energy costs. The property is also triple-glazed throughout, contributing to its rare EPC A rating and making this an incredibly comfortable home to live in all year round.
The property is light and airy throughout with a stunning cedar clad rear extension which houses the open plan kitchen/living/dining room. This really is the hub of the home with a beautifully fitted Scandinavian kitchen which has an AEG induction hob and electric oven, integrated dishwasher and space for a fridge freezer. There is plenty of space for a dining table and a French door opens onto the decking area. Off the kitchen there is a separate utility room with access to a cloakroom and store cupboard. The huge living space is just fabulous for a growing family and is flooded with light from the roof lantern, the floor to ceiling windows on both sides and the sliding doors opening onto the garden. There is also a handy storage room for coats and shoes. There is a further reception room to the front of the house with a lovely bay window, currently used as a flexible home workspace.
Upstairs there are three great sized double bedrooms and a further single bedroom. Two of the double bedrooms have picturesque views across the rear countryside, and one has its own en-suite shower room. The family bathroom has built in vanity units with twin sinks and mirrored storage cabinets above. The bathtub has a glass screen with a fitted shower.
Outside: The property has a single garage but it is partly used to house the tech for the solar panels so is currently used for storage only. There is parking available on the driveway. The front garden is seeded as a wildflower meadow, and the generous south-facing rear garden has a raised decked area to take in those wonderful views on those sunny summer evenings. The rest of the garden is mainly lawn with a variety of mature trees and shrubs, and is currently managed with wildlife and biodiversity in mind.
