Church Hill, Harbledown, Canterbury

This beautifully presented two bedroom period end of terrace cottage has been sympathetically modernised by the current owners to create a charming & characterful home. The cottage was once a village bakery and so is much larger than others in the terrace and benefits from a spacious kitchen/breakfast at the rear and a useful cellar.

Steps lead up from Church Hill to The Mint where you will find The Old Bakery as the first cottage you come to. The front door opens to the sitting room/dining room which is tastefully decorated using Farrow & Ball paint and wallpaper which was carefully matched to some which was found during the renovation works. Exposed timbers divide the space and a hatch in the floor of the dining area leads to the cellar which provides excellent additional storage space.

The rear lobby connects the dining room to the kitchen/breakfast room and provides a utility space. The kitchen/breakfast room has ample space for a dining table and has a range of wall and base units, an integrated electric oven & gas hob, a cupboard housing the gas combi boiler and spaces for a fridge/freezer & dishwasher. From here another inner lobby leads to the recently fitted bathroom with a roll top bath and separate cloakroom.

Upstairs, the landing leads to the two bedrooms with bedroom one having a lovely outlook over the village and bedroom two with wonderful views over the rooftops towards rolling countryside.

Outside, there is a front garden which slopes away from the house. Most of the garden lies to the rear and measures approximately 22’ x 12’. A shared path defines the boundary between The Old Bakery and the cottage next door which leads to a delightful part walled courtyard seating area with space for a table and chairs which has been cleverly planted with raised beds.
There is free on street parking in the village.
