About
This well presented two bedroom end of terrace home offers the perfect combination of character, modern improvements and a highly convenient location, all within easy walking distance of Canterbury city centre.
Lovingly updated by the current owners since purchasing the property in 2022, the home has undergone significant improvements including a brand new roof, a newly rendered and repainted exterior, and redecoration throughout, creating a property that is ready to move straight into.
The ground floor offers a practical and inviting layout, beginning with a comfortable front lounge that provides the perfect place to relax.
Beyond this is a separate dining room, ideal for family meals or entertaining friends, before leading through to the kitchen at the rear, with doors that open directly onto the garden, allowing the living space to flow seamlessly outdoors during the warmer months.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two well proportioned double bedrooms, both offering excellent natural light and plenty of space for furniture.
A generous family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.
Outside, the sunny rear garden provides an excellent space to enjoy outdoor dining or simply unwind, while side access adds further practicality for bikes, bins or garden equipment.
As an end of terrace home, the property also benefits from additional privacy and a more open feel.
The location is equally appealing, positioned within easy reach of Canterbury's historic city centre, offering an excellent selection of shops, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities.
Both Canterbury East and Canterbury West railway stations are within walking distance, providing regular services, including high-speed links to London, making this an excellent choice for commuters.
