3 Bed Terraced House For Sale

It has always been said that location is the key to any property and this charming Grade II Listed Georgian terrace is situated in the heart of Canterbury just a short stroll from the high street. However if you can add character and history, the River Stour wandering past the end of the garden and wonderful views across ‘Solly's Orchard' and parkland, then you have the really do have the whole package. The house is approached along a quiet and peaceful pedestrianised street with a front door that opens directly into the delightfully modern and light L shaped open plan living room with wood flooring that flows through much of the ground floor. There are built-in shelves and a fireplace with a flame effect gas fire providing a warm focal point. This opens into the lounge and beyond a useful study area while the conservatory provides charming views over the garden, the river and Solly's. There is a bright kitchen/breakfast room with an octagonal glazed roof and a fitted banquette seat in the breakfast area while the conveniently designed kitchen includes fitted cupboards, coved ceiling, a built in oven and hob as well as stand-alone appliances. On the first floor landing there is a utility cupboard with stand-alone laundry facilities, a storage cupboard and French doors to a balcony with wonderful views across to Solly's. There is a family bathroom, a walk-in shower room, a single bedroom and two double bedrooms including the principal with delightful views, fitted cupboards and air conditioning. The rear garden has a path flanked by lavender beds and steps down to a gate with access to the river which has never flooded owing to the effective sluice gates. There is also a small lawn and a raised curved patio area ideal for al fresco dining or just sitting and watching the moorhens and ducks or the punts and canoes being paddled down the river. There is also a garage available in a block at the end of the street and, because the house is adjacent to the Stour, you are allowed to moor a canoe or punt on the river.

What the Owner says:
The house has a light and airy atmosphere and delightful views over Solly's Orchard. I also appreciate the kitchen layout and when I close the curtains to the conservatory in the evenings, the sitting area is warm and cosy. As I thought I would be living here for the foreseeable future, I have had the flat roofs over the conservatory and the kitchen replaced but sadly I am having to move for health reasons. The location is wonderful as I can stroll to the city centre in just a few minutes. There are historic buildings, high street stores, individual shops, restaurants and bars as well as two mainline stations, two theatres, three universities and numerous state schools, including three excellent grammar schools and a number of private schools.
