A stunning semi-detached family home which has been beautifully extended, offering a large open plan kitchen/family room with a skylight and bifold doors out to the garden. This striking property is situated in an incredibly desirable cul-de-sac in the St. Stephen`s area of Canterbury, within walking distance to the City Centre, the University of Kent and the West Station where you can catch the high-speed service into London St. Pancras. The road is very peaceful and has a family-friendly, residential feel to it.

This 1930`s bay-fronted home is the epitome of kerb appeal, with a newly laid resin driveway and attractive front garden. It enjoys an elevated position, with a pastel pink coloured door, framed by a beautiful red brick circular porch. The front door opens into an entrance hall, with a door to the left leading down to an office, ideal for those who work from home. This room has had various other uses in the past including a downstairs bedroom. You then have a lovely sitting room which features a large bay window and alcove storage either side of the chimney recess.

Through to the rear of the property, which opens up into a gorgeous open plan kitchen/family room with a skylight and contemporary grey bi-fold doors out to the garden, which match the colour of the kitchen perfectly. The bifolds allow a lovely outlook to the garden and the mature trees at the rear. This wonderful open plan space compliments modern family life and has been skilfully divided into living, dining and kitchen spaces. The living area features a log burning stove and herringbone style flooring flows throughout. There is plenty of space for a large dining table and a breakfast bar for those quicker meals. The kitchen has a range of stylish shaker style cabinets in a bold, dark grey which provide ample storage and integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, double oven and a five-ring gas hob. You also have a unique bi-fold window, which can open up fully which is a well-designed feature.

The kitchen is further complimented by a useful utility room which leads into a WC. In the utility room, you will find additional cabinets, a sink, another built in freezer and an integrated washing machine. There is also a cupboard housing the boiler, which is only a couple of years` old. There is a door from the utility, leading out to the side of the house.

On the first floor, you will find three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom is to the front of the property and has a lovely bay window which has an elevated view over the close. There is a second, good-sized double to the rear and the third bedroom is a single room, perfect for a child. The family bathroom has a large walk-in shower as well as a separate bath.

OUTSIDE:

The property features a wonderful west-facing garden, which enjoys plenty of privacy from the mature trees to the rear. It is a good size, with plenty of space for children to run around and play games yet is manageable for busy households. There is a large patio area with an attractive pergola, the perfect spot to sit and enjoy some dinner alfresco. There is a large shed to the rear of the garden and the current owners have a chicken coop. If you ever dreamt about having freshly laid eggs with your cup of morning coffee, here is your chance!

LOCATION:

Knowing for its excellent schooling and close proximity to the West Station and City Centre, families and commuters flock to the area and there is sense of warm and friendly community spirit. St. Stephen`s Junior School is within a short walk of the property, and you have the Archbishops Secondary School close by, with many other excellent schools in the wider vicinity. The University of Kent is close by and there are many glorious walks and cycling routes around, including the picturesque Crab and Winkle Way to Whitstable
