Roper Road, Canterbury

An attractive end-terrace townhouse, with off-road parking and a garage, located in desirable St. Dunstan's, a stone's throw from the West Station with its high-speed train to London. From here you can take a leisurely stroll into Canterbury's historic centre to take in a show at the famous Marlowe Theatre, have brunch at one of the many delightful local boutique eateries or dine out at award winning restaurants.

This lovely family home is set back from the pavement, behind attractive railings and has a front garden which wraps around the side. Its handsome brick façade and bay window is in keeping with the period properties on the road and although modern inside, it has touches of character which make it feel like a much older home.

The front door opens into an entrance hall, with a door to the left opening into a kitchen before continuing through to a spacious lounge/diner to the rear. The kitchen has an attractive range of matching wall and base units, finished with a high-quality worktop and butler sink. There is an electric oven with a gas hob and an under counter fridge and washing machine. There is also space in the bay window for a small breakfast table. The lounge/diner is a lovely, bright and open space to relax and socialise in, with sliding doors out to the garden and there is a large storage cupboard.

Accommodation is presented over three floors, with two bedrooms on the first floor and the primary bedroom enjoying the second floor to itself. All bedrooms are good sizes and can house double beds and the main bedroom has an en-suite shower room. There is a family bathroom on the first floor also.

Outside, there is a low-maintenance wrap around garden which has an attractive variety of mature shrubs and trees bordering. From the garden, you have convenient access to the garage which has a window and electricity running to it. Although ideal for storage, it could also be made into an office set up for those who work from home.

In addition to your private garden, there is also a communal garden for the residents to use, ideal for picnics with family and friends in the summer months. Residents pay a contribution towards the upkeep of the communal and green spaces which is £74, paid twice yearly.
