Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 1920s detached family home
  • Totally refurbished with new kitchen and bathrooms
  • Incredible main bedroom suite with balcony
  • Nestling in 0.81 acres of secluded grounds
  • Gated in and out driveway and double garage
  • Easy access to local shops, pubs and train station
Nestling in 0.81 acres of secluded grounds is this delightful detached family home originally built in the 1920s. It has been totally refurbished and includes air conditioning, contemporary bathrooms, a modern kitchen and breakfast area and an oak framed porch. The house is approached via two sets of five bar gates opening onto an in-and-out driveway for off road parking, bordered by shrubs and trees leading to the double garage and the porch.

There is a spacious hall with a cloakroom, coat cupboard and porcelain floor tiles that continue into the light and bright, dual aspect kitchen and breakfast area. This includes a range cooker and bespoke units housing integrated appliances, French doors to the terrace and a door to the garage with automatic remote control doors, an electric car charging point and access to the utility room. The dual aspect dining area has bay windows and French doors to the garden and a very wide archway to the dual aspect lounge with its modern raised log burner and two sets of French doors to the garden.

The landing leads to the contemporary family bathroom and three double bedrooms including the impressive main suite. This has a seating area, French doors to the private balcony with wrought iron railings, a wall of mirrored cupboards and fitted bedroom furniture, a trendy en suite shower room and a door to a single bedroom that can also be independently accessed from the divided staircase.

Outside the Indian sandstone terrace leads to an original veranda and has steps down to the lawn, interspersed with impressive trees and shrubs. There is a greenhouse, log store, garden shed and a large workshop/storage facility backing onto the spacious summerhouse that includes lighting, electrics and a decked terrace so could become an office/studio.

What the Owner says:
“This has been a wonderful family home for over 9 years and the location is ideal, but it is time to downsize. We are close to Sturry with its local amenities, a primary school rated Outstanding by Ofsted, Kings Junior school and a station with the high speed train to London. Fordwich includes an excellent pub/eaterie and the Michelin Star Fordwich Arms, while Canterbury with its historic buildings, shops, restaurants, Outstanding grammar schools and private schools, universities, retail parks, theatres and cinemas is easily accessible. Local sports facilities include golf and cricket clubs, fishing and sailing."

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on August 8, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on August 8, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
