Lancaster Road, Canterbury

GUIDE PRICE: £275,000 - £295,000

A delightful period home within a short walk of the City Centre, offered to the market with no forward chain. The property has plenty of character, with lovely original floorboards throughout and stripped wooden doors, and it has the added benefit of a garage to the rear which you can access via Lime Kiln Road.

This charming home is set over two floors, offering spacious accommodation throughout. The front door opens to an entrance hallway, with a door to the left opening to a bright living room to the front with a large bay window. The hallway continues through to a second reception room to the rear, which has a sliding door opening to the kitchen and then on to the bathroom. The kitchen is galley-style, with solid wood shelving giving it a charming, rustic look.

Upstairs, you will find two large double bedrooms, both of which have some built-in storage. There is an incredibly useful additional room off the back bedroom, which could be used as an office or dressing room. It is also common in this style of house that this room is made into a lovely en-suite bathroom.

The property benefits from double glazing throughout and has an EPC rating C.

Outside, there is a paved rear garden offering a low-maintenance space. It would be easy to fill this space with bright potted plants. There is a gate to the rear, which takes out to Lime Kiln Road where you can access the garage. The garage is a useful storage space, and it would house a small car but if it was not needed, someone could potentially replace with a car port or create a larger garden.
