For Sale5 Bedroom Detached House in St Stephens Road, Canterbury, Kent Ct2 7jw£750,000

We were really taken with the property when we first came to look at it. It is in a very convenient location, close to the city centre, local schools and Canterbury West station where the fast train can whisk you to London in under an hour. At the same time, it is very quiet and peaceful. The house is a bit of ‘Tardis’ as it can come as a surprise to visitors when the see the space available, the size of the rooms and the large garden that close into the city. Ironically, we had just completed all the upgrades to the property we wanted as we thought it would be our ‘forever’ home but a new business opportunity means we need to move although we shall really miss it. During our time here we have installed a new boiler and a Megaflo hot water system to provide high pressure showers, recently repainted the outside of the property, upgraded the kitchen and plumbing, relandscaped the garden and redecorated throughout. Canterbury is such a beautiful place with its historic buildings coupled to its first class shopping facilities as well as wonderful restaurants, pubs and cafes, two theatres and a cinema. It also includes excellent grammar and top class private schools as well as three universities. There is the Kent cricket ground and other sports facilities including golf clubs and it is not far to Dover and Folkestone for trips to the Continent or the beaches at Whitstable, Herne Bay and Thanet.
