This beautiful detached 1930’s property comes to the market located in an ideal position on St Dunstans Terrace, one of Canterbury’s most prestigious and sought after residential streets. It is a short walk to Canterbury West train station with its high speed rail link to London St Pancras. With the vibrant and historic city centre just a 5-minute walk away the property offers priceless off-street parking to the front and well presented, flexible living space both internally and externally with the wonderful addition of integrated annexe that provides the property with a contained living space.
The ground floor living accommodation includes a bay fronted study which can easily be used as an additional bedroom and a fantastic open plan kitchen-diner. The kitchen-diner itself provides a wonderful communal feel to the property with both the dining and kitchen area seamlessly joining with a lounge area that boasts a wood burner to give that cosy element to the property. The kitchen worktops and units are all made of sustainable materials and there are double doors to the rear of this room that provide access out to the beautiful, mosaic patio area. Those doors and each of the windows to the rear of the property on both floors are all Crittall and provide the property with plenty of character. The integral annexe really separates the property from its competition. It has provided the current owners with an additional income at times and is ideal for those who may want a contained space for an elderly family member or guests. It has its own double bedroom, kitchen area and bathroom as well as access both from within the house and to the side of the property. The ground floor also provides a WC which has handy integral storage and there is also additional under-stair storage.
The first floor offers four double bedrooms with the master bedroom benefitting from the previous extension to the property. This gives the room a huge space with plenty of space for furniture and with the dual aspect windows it also benefits both from plenty of natural light as well as the elevated views over the beautiful rear garden and the surrounding trees from the neighbouring properties. The family bathroom is a modern fitted room with a bathtub and overhead shower and the loft is a large half boarded space that along with the landing cupboard, also provides that additional and useful storage. The property benefits from gas central heating with a Nest control system, and has been extensively renovated by the current owners, including complete rewiring of the house.
The south west facing rear garden is secluded, beautifully presented and a family sized space that boasts a large open lawn, a gorgeous mosaic patio area and a children’s play area to the very rear of the garden. Clearly maintained and enjoyed by the current owners the garden is another real feature of the property with access to the garden on both sides of the house.
St Dunstans Terrace is renowned as one of the city’s most sought after residential streets, with a variety of different style properties and a location that sits just in the cusp of this historic city. Canterbury West mainline station is just a short walk from the property and provides a frequent high-speed service into London St Pancras in under the hour mark. There are an array of local amenities, cafés, restaurants and well regarded schools in addition to what the city centre itself provides. With world class leisure and shopping facilities the property also sits a 5 minute drive away from the A2 and the coastal town of Whitstable is just a 15 minute drive away.
With the house beautifully maintained and presented and with extended living space and an integral annexe that provides the market with something different, this property and its stunning location are a must-see.
