A charming Victorian terraced home with a generous south-east facing garden and the added benefit of an upstairs bathroom, situated in the popular residential area of Wincheap, just a short walk from Canterbury city centre, Kent & Canterbury Hospital and Canterbury East railway station. This lovely property would make an ideal first home and is being offered to the market with no forward chain.
The front door opens into a bright and welcoming sitting room, where a wood-burning stove creates a cosy focal point, complemented by bespoke built-in cupboards and shelving within the chimney recess. Beyond, a separate dining room provides an inviting space for everyday dining and entertaining, with a useful understairs storage cupboard and glazed door opening directly onto the garden. Some neighbouring properties have chosen to reverse the layout, using the rear reception room as the sitting room to take advantage of the garden outlook, offering flexibility to suit different lifestyles.
Leading off the dining room is a bright, well-appointed kitchen, fitted with a range of matching wall and base units providing ample storage and worktop space. There is an integrated oven together with under-counter space for a fridge, freezer and washing machine.
Upstairs, the property offers two bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom. The main bedroom is a generous double room positioned at the front of the house and benefits from a built-in wardrobe with a hanging rail. A pull-down loft ladder provides access to a large boarded loft room with a Velux window, offering excellent storage space. The second bedroom is a comfortable single room, ideal as a child`s bedroom, nursery or home office, and also benefits from built-in storage.
Completing the first floor is a stylish, modern bathroom fitted with a contemporary white suite comprising an L-shaped bath with a rainfall shower over, wash basin and WC.
Outside, the property enjoys a good-sized rear garden with a sunny south-easterly aspect. A decked seating area provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining and leads onto a lawn, creating a lovely space to relax or entertain. The garden also benefits from gated rear access.
