Iliffe and Iliffe are delighted to bring to market this spacious three-bedroom Victorian home on one of Faversham’s most desirable streets. Beautifully presented throughout, blending period features with contemporary enhancements, this stylish, well-proportioned family home has everything to offer a new owner. The property is ideally situated in the quiet setting of Norman Road, just a short stroll from both Faversham’s town centre and the mainline railway station with fast links to London.

On entering the property through the stained glass period front door, you are greeted by the welcoming entrance hall with exposed original floorboards. To the left, the generous living room boasts a large bay window which floods the room with natural light. The room also features exposed floorboards, and original built-in cupboards on either side of the stylish log burner which is perfect for those cooler days and nights. The well-proportioned dining room, with its exposed floorboards and original built-in storage, is a light-filled family space with a decorative Victorian fireplace and a large window. The dining room opens onto the beautifully extended contemporary kitchen, with its reflective white surfaces creating a sense of space and light. The tasteful design of the kitchen will appeal to culinary enthusiasts, with clever drawer-based storage, a large pantry cupboard, integrated eye-level double oven and microwave, and extensive Corian countertops. Bi-fold doors bring the delightful garden and kitchen together, with space to create a second breakfast/dining area if desired.  Off the kitchen, there is a cloakroom.

Stairs lead from the dining room down to the basement, which has been fully tanked and converted into a versatile room, currently set up as a guest bedroom. It could also be used as a home office, games room, studio, cinema room or playroom.

The first floor of the property, also with exposed floorboards, has two large double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The sunny and light larger bedroom is a spacious south-facing room, with built in cupboards. The second double bedroom is generously sized and has retained an original Victorian fireplace which adds character. The family bathroom has been thoughtfully designed to complement the age of the property, with a free-standing roll-top bath, a large walk-in shower and a traditional column radiator.

Stairs lead from the first floor landing to a cleverly designed converted loft, flooded with light from a large Velux window that also offers views across Faversham’s skyline. Perfect for guests, a teenager, or even as a master bedroom, this private, peaceful room has extensive eaves storage and an en-suite with lavatory and wash basin.

Outside, the delightful rear garden is accessed through the bi-fold kitchen doors. With original brick walls, a wide patio, lawn and established beds, the garden offers year-round enjoyment with a beautiful magnolia tree, scented climbing roses and a magnificent clematis. At the end of the garden there is a summerhouse, currently used as a home gym, that could easily be used as a home office or studio. There is a gate providing access to Saxon Road.

Faversham’s bustling, historic town centre is a four minute walk from Norman Road. Faversham mainline railway station is six minutes on foot or two minutes by car, with services to London St Pancras, Canon Street and Victoria stations taking just over an hour.

Faversham town centre is full of independent retailers, coffee shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as a popular market held three days a week. Held under the iconic Guildhall; Faversham Market is believed to be the oldest in Kent, having been recorded in the Domesday book in 1086.

Faversham is steeped in history with its oldest building dating back to 1234. A lot of Faversham’s character comes from its charming architecture with buildings surviving from the medieval, Georgian and Victorian periods, through to the present day. The town is also home to Britain’s oldest brewery – Shepherd Neame.

The town contains several both ‘Good’ and ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted rated schools at both primary and secondary level.
