It is hard to believe this stunning and beautifully presented detached residence located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac is only about three minutes’ drive from Canterbury West station and not much further to the city centre.

With its cathedral style dormer windows, high chimneystack,  white walls and mellow roof tiles it has immediate external appeal and the appeal continues inside, once you cross the threshold.
