Freehold
Description
Situated along the well-regarded Rough Common Road near the historic village of Harbledown, this two-bedroom detached bungalow presents a rare opportunity to acquire a generously sized plot in one of Canterbury’s most prized residential locations.
Set back from the road, the property features a spacious driveway with aco channels designed to intercept surface water runoff—an intelligent addition that enhances both practicality and curb appeal. To the rear, a conservatory opens onto a large garden laid to lawn, complete with a patio area ideal for alfresco dining and a handy external shed for storage or workshop use.
Internally, the property would benefit from modernisation, making it a blank canvas for first-time buyers eager to create their ideal home or investors looking for a solid flip-and-ship opportunity. The existing footprint offers excellent potential for reconfiguration or extension (subject to the necessary permissions), maximising the habitable space on this superb plot.
The location is a key feature of this home. Rough Common is a peaceful yet connected community, just under 2 miles from Canterbury City Centre. The property is a short drive, bus ride, or cycle into the heart of the city, where you’ll find a wide selection of shops, cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions including the iconic Canterbury Cathedral.
Locally, Rough Common offers a convenient village store, post office and green spaces including Blean Woods National Nature Reserve, perfect for weekend walks. For families, the area is within the catchment of several highly regarded schools, including Blean Primary School (Ofsted: Outstanding) and Simon Langton Grammar Schools, both just a few minutes away by car. The University of Kent is also within easy reach.
With its large plot, driveway, and scope for enhancement, this bungalow represents a smart purchase in a location renowned for its strong community feel and close proximity to both countryside and city.
Perfect for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking a project in a highly desirable setting. Viewing is highly recommended.
