Garage & Driveway | Countryside Views | South Facing Rear Garden |
A three-bedroom detached chalet bungalow situated in the highly sought-after town of Fordwich. Occupying a generous plot with open fields to the rear, this charming character home ticks all the boxes for comfortable countryside living.
The property benefits from period features throughout, including beamed ceilings and feature fireplaces, while also offering modern upgrades such as Rockwool insulation for improved energy efficiency, a full alarm system for added security, and a newly installed electric awning in the rear garden, perfect for enjoying outdoor space in all weather.
The accommodation comprises an entrance porch and hallway, a spacious lounge with feature fireplace, and a kitchen/diner with integrated appliances and views over the rear garden and surrounding countryside. There are three good sized double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a panelled bath, shower attachment, and WC.
To the rear of the property is a bright conservatory with plumbing for a washing machine and space for a freezer, with French doors opening directly onto the garden.
Outside, the front garden offers off-street parking and access to the garage. The large, south facing rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and features a paved patio area, greenhouse, timber shed, timber workshop, and a seating area with pergola. Side access adds to the practicality of the outdoor space.

Location Summary
The village of Fordwich benefits from two very popular country pubs, one being the Fordwich Arms which has recently been awarded a Michelin Star. The cathedral city of Canterbury is within a 10 minute drive and Sturry railway station is a short walk away which links to Canterbury West Station and the High Speed link to London St Pancras. Sturry High Street is within half a mile and offers a range of amenities from hairdresser to local newsagent. One of the real treats of this location is the fabulous countryside walks around Westbere lakes which are ideal for dog walkers or anyone fancying a bit of peace and quiet on a Sunday afternoon.
The property is situated within 4 miles of the city of Canterbury, being within easy access of the High Street and all its amenities. These include an excellent modern shopping centre, the University of Kent, Canterbury Christ Church University and other colleges, together with an excellent choice of schools in both the public and private sectors. In addition to the High Street is the Kings Mile, which is a lovely mall of boutique style shops, cafes, eateries and public houses.
Sporting and recreational opportunities nearby include: golf at Scotland Hills, Canterbury, sailing at Whitstable Yacht Club and Herne Bay, county cricket at Canterbury and day trips to France via Eurotunnel, all within easy access. In addition, the recently refurbished Marlowe Theatre, the spectacular Beaney House of Art & Knowledge and the Gulbenkian (theatre, cinema and café bar) at the University of Kent, all provide a wealth of excellent entertainment in Canterbury.
Canterbury has two mainline railway stations, with Canterbury West offering the high speed service to London (St Pancras 56 mins). The property is also within easy access of the A2 dual carriageway, which in turn links to the Channel Port of Dover and Brenley Corner at Faversham, adjoining the M2 / A299 (Thanet Way) linking London and the coastal towns respectively. Ashford International (15.4 miles, London St Pancras 38 mins).
