Beautifully Updated Three Bedroom 1930s Detached Home With Garage And South Facing Garden

Situated on Canterbury’s desirable south side, this beautifully updated three bedroom detached home offers a blend of character, modern style, and practical family living. Set within walking distance of both Langton Grammar Schools, local shops, hospitals, and the city centre, it provides a perfect balance of convenience and tranquillity for families or professionals.

The property boasts excellent kerb appeal, with an attractive front garden and elevated position giving it a welcoming presence. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully renovated with a focus on modern comfort and minimalistic style. The lounge is filled with natural light from a large bay window, offering a spacious area for relaxation or entertaining. A versatile reception room, currently used as a home office, could equally serve as a second sitting room or play area.

The kitchen/diner is a standout feature, recently replaced with a sleek, fully integrated design. It comes complete with a fridge, freezer, washing machine, oven, and gas hob, alongside ample matte-white cabinetry with black hardware. The room flows seamlessly into a second reception area (renovated conservatory with newly insulated roof and new carpet), separated by French doors, providing flexibility for dining and family living.

Upstairs, the property offers two double bedrooms, including a principal room with fitted wardrobes and a charming bay window, plus a third well sized single bedroom currently with a small double bed. The bathroom has been stylishly modernised with contemporary tiling, a bath and shower combination, new sink, and a convenient built in storage cupboard. New carpets throughout the bedrooms, landing, and staircase enhance the fresh, move-in ready feel.

Externally, the south facing rear garden is a highlight, featuring a sandstone patio, mature shrubs, raised flower beds, and built in seating, perfect for alfresco dining and relaxation. A large shed with electricity provides extra storage. To the front, a generously sized garage has been fitted with shelving and offers parking for a vehicle, bicycle, and additional storage space.

The home previously had approved planning for extensions, offering future owners the potential to further personalise the property. Located within a quiet residential area, yet close to Canterbury’s amenities, the A2 commuter route, and high speed train links, this home is ideal for families seeking space, style, and convenience in a sought after location.
