Whitstable Road, Canterbury, CT2

A delightful and unique, grade two listed cottage located in the heart of historic, lively and vibrant St. Dunstan`s. Bursting with character, this wonderful home embodies the City`s charm and spirit and is ideal for those wanting to be close to the High Street, fantastic restaurants, and the West Station, ideal for commuters.

This lovely home has been significantly improved by the current owners and is tastefully decorated throughout, combining striking blue tones with neutral colours, enhancing the property`s character. The front door opens into a spacious living room, featuring a white exposed beam ceiling and a large sash window to the front which allows plenty of natural light in. A door then opens into a kitchen which has a range of matching wall and base units with recently installed oak worktops. An opening lead into a wonderful sunroom, providing additional living space. It`s a warm and peaceful room to relax in or it could be used as a dining room to compliment its location next to the kitchen.

Stairs rise from the living room to the first floor where you will find a large double bedroom with built-in storage and hanging space, and a beautifully designed bathroom. The warm stone coloured floor tiles contrast nicely with the striking blue metro wall tiles. The bathroom has a bath with a shower over and glass screen as well as a WC, vanity unit and wash basin and a Victorian style towel rail. The bedroom has a large sash window to the front, allowing a lovely view of the beautiful St. Dunstan`s Church opposite.

A staircase at the end of the landing takes you up to the top floor which opens into a uniquely laid out bedroom. This is a charming room in the roof`s eaves with exposed beams, level change, and dual aspect with windows to the front and back. It is currently being used as a nursery but has previously been used as a snug and guest room.

Outside, steps lead up to a small but well-designed outdoor space which has artificial grass and flower beds bordering. It is the perfect low-maintenance space to relax and enjoy the sunshine, ideal for enjoying alfresco drinks in the summer. There is a gate providing rear access via an alleyway to a side street, which allows you to take your bins out, or bring large items into the property.

There is no allocated parking with the property however, there is on-street parking on roads close by. Residents will need to get a permit from the council, and depending on zone, will cost approximately ?65 per year.

LOCATION:

This unique home is in the heart of St. Dunstan`s, a desirable neighbourhood with a lively atmosphere, brimming with restaurants, quaint pubs and coffee shops. The West Station is an 8-minute walk away and from here, you will be able to hop on the high speed which gets you into London in 54 mins, or the coast in under 30 mins. The famous Goods Shed is just next to the station, where you can browse fresh, local produce including delectable cheeses, meats and wines and grab a bite to eat at one of their eateries.

Home to the stunning Westgate Gardens, St. Dunstan`s also has a quieter and peaceful side, and you could spend hours` getting lost in a good book on one of its many benches, feeding the ducks on the River Stour and watching the river punts slowly drift by.

With all of Canterbury`s treasured landmarks, including the stunning Cathedral and Marlowe Theatre, within walking distance to the property, we believe that this would also make a lucrative holiday let investment.
