Blean, Canterbury, Kent

This gorgeous, four-bedroom family home is situated on a generous plot within the picturesque village of Blean, just on the outskirts of the Cathedral City of Canterbury and has provided a serene home to the same family for two generations. Being well set back from the road and enjoying a mature, wrap-around garden, this quiet residence has direct access to Blean Woods Nature Reserve - a haven of wildlife that is popular with joggers, dog-walkers and all round nature enthusiasts. The property has well set out and spacious accommodation comprising a primary sitting room with an original log fireplace and wooden beamed ceilings, separate dining room, kitchen and private conservatory. Upstairs there are four good-sized bedrooms, master en-suite, and family bathroom. This generously sized garden features a variety of distinct areas, including seating spots, a vegetable plot, a greenhouse, and both a DIY shed and a storage shed. On top of all this, a sunny garden chalet provides extra space to relax or entertain, making the most of this remarkable outdoor setting with endless potential for outdoor living, gardening, and creative projects. The long driveway provides off street parking for several vehicles and access to the detached garage. Whilst Canterbury's wide array of retail outlets, cinemas, theatres and restaurants is a short drive away, the coastal town of Whitstable is also just a quick drive and boasts award-winning seafood restaurants, trendy bars and barista-run cafes. The wider area also boasts very well-regarded schools, both state and independent, as well as excellent health centres and many amenities besides. Blean village has a small, but handy parade of shops, while the main bus routes into Canterbury and Whitstable are well-served by the local bus service.
