***guide price - £700,000 - £800,000*** Built in 1919, this detached Edwardian residence predates much of the post-war development to the north of Canterbury and occupies an enviable position, still benefiting from partial Cathedral views and an exceptional sense of privacy.

Set well back from the road and screened by mature trees, the property is discreetly nestled within its plot, giving little indication from the roadside of the substantial family home beyond.

The house itself makes an impressive statement, showcasing the bold architectural character so typical of the Edwardian period. Extending to over 2,000 sq.

Ft., the layout is both practical and versatile, with high ceilings and large windows enhancing the natural light and sense of space throughout the generously proportioned rooms.

Many original features remain, including a functioning electrical servant bell system, an appealing reminder of the property’s heritage.

The accommodation offers excellent flexibility, with the option to utilise up to six bedrooms or to configure part of the space as a home office or studio.

The ground floor comprises a spacious open plan living and dining room, a kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining pantry and utility room, a separate family room, and a cloakroom.

On the first floor there are four well-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, while a more recent loft conversion provides two additional bedrooms and a further bathroom on the second floor.

The south-facing gardens lie to the front yet remain wonderfully private, rich with wildlife and landscaped with mature trees, shrubs, areas of lawn, and planted borders.

A terrace adjoins the house, offering an attractive seating area with a sunny aspect. The property also includes a double garage and hardstanding, offering off-street parking for up to four vehicles.

This highly sought-after part of Canterbury provides excellent connectivity, with the high-speed rail link, offering journeys to London in under an hour, within walking distance, and convenient access to the A2/M2 corridor.

Families will also appreciate the proximity to several outstanding schools, including Blean and St Peter’s primary schools, as well as a selection of respected public schools.
