Full Property Description
A very well presented four bedroom detached family home set back from the road within beautiful gardens in a highly convenient position opposite Blean Primary School.
The light, airy triple aspect sitting room has wonderful views over the front and rear gardens and a pretty fireplace with wood burning stove. The dining room overlooks the front, has an open fire and leads through to the study. To the rear is the kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory, cloakroom and large utility room/walk in larder.
Upstairs are four good size double bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom 1 has an en-suite bathroom and dressing area.
The property is set back from the road behind its manicured front garden and driveway which offers plenty of off road parking and a detached garage. Most of the garden lies to the rear, measures approx. 153’ x 79’ and is mainly laid to lawn with a variety of established trees, shrubs, a pond and vegetable beds. There is a patio with room for a dining table and chairs, a greenhouse, vegetable beds and plenty of space at the side. The rear garden faces south-west and backs onto the RSPB Blean Woods. The overall plot size is 0.42 acres. The gardens are a real feature of the property and have clearly been a labour of love for the current owner.
The property is directly opposite the sought-after Blean Primary School, currently rated ‘Outstanding’ by OFSTED. The University of Kent, St Edmund’s and Kent College are all within easy walking distance. The Cathedral City of Canterbury is just 1.2 miles away, with a huge range of shopping and leisure facilities including many restaurants, bars and cafés. Educationally, Canterbury is well provided for with three universities and a huge choice of schools for all ages and abilities in the state and private sectors.
The north side of the city has easy access to Canterbury West railway station with its high-speed service to London in just 56 minutes, the A2 close by and a regular bus service.
