Description

RESERVE YOUR NEXT CHAPTER WITH THIS THREE-BEDROOM HOUSE PRESENTS AN EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY FOR THOSE SEEKING A PROJECT WITH IMMENSE POTENTIAL. OFFERED TO THE MARKET WITH 'OFFERS OVER' £200,000 AND CRUCIALLY, A CHAIN-FREE PURCHASE, THIS PROPERTY IS IDEAL FOR FIRST-TIME BUYERS, GROWING FAMILIES, OR INVESTORS LOOKING TO ADD SIGNIFICANT VALUE.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a property that, whilst in need of modernisation, boasts a solid foundation and generous proportions. The ground floor features a large lounge/diner, providing an expansive and versatile space perfect for both everyday family life and entertaining guests. This area, with its ample natural light, offers a blank canvas for prospective owners to create a contemporary living environment tailored to their personal taste and requirements. Imagine transforming this space into a vibrant open-plan area, seamlessly connecting living, dining, and perhaps even a modern kitchen, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Ascending to the first floor, you will find three good-sized bedrooms. Each bedroom offers comfortable dimensions, providing ample space for double beds and storage, making them suitable for a family or for those requiring a home office. The layout is practical and functional, and with a thoughtful renovation, these rooms could be transformed into serene and stylish private retreats. A family bathroom serves these bedrooms, and while currently functional, it also presents an opportunity for a complete contemporary overhaul, enhancing both aesthetics and utility.

One of the most compelling aspects of this property is its significant development potential. Situated on a large plot, the exterior offers considerable scope for extension, subject to planning permission, allowing for the creation of additional living space or even an annexe. The generous garden provides a fantastic outdoor area, perfect for landscaping, creating a children's play area, or establishing a tranquil garden oasis. Furthermore, the property benefits from rear access, a highly sought-after feature that adds convenience and flexibility, particularly for potential future developments or for those with multiple vehicles.

Adding to the property's appeal is a variety of outbuildings. These structures offer versatile usage, whether for storage, a workshop, or even conversion into a home office, gym, or studio, again, subject to the necessary permissions. Their presence further underscores the substantial plot size and the myriad possibilities this property holds.

Kent Avenue itself is a well-regarded location within Canterbury, offering a balance of residential tranquillity and convenient access to the city's vibrant amenities. Canterbury boasts a rich history, stunning architecture, and a thriving cultural scene, alongside excellent shopping facilities, renowned educational institutions, and a wide array of restaurants and cafes. Commuters will appreciate the excellent transport links, including two mainline train stations providing services to London, and easy access to major road networks.

This property represents a rare chance to acquire a substantial home in a desirable location, offering a unique blend of character and potential. With its chain-free status, large plot, and scope for modernisation and development, Kent Avenue is more than just a house; it's an opportunity to create a dream home in one of Kent's most iconic cities.

HARRISONS HOMES, A HOUSE IS A BUILDING, A HOME IS A FEELING

We now offer a higher level of certainty to Buyers and Sellers by offering a Reservation Agreement before we remove a property from the market.

Our system stops either party just walking away or attempting to renegotiate the price after an offer is accepted. With our Secure process, once the offer has been agreed, both Buyer and Seller sign a Reservation Agreement, the property is then formally withdrawn from the market and both are bound by the terms within.

If either party withdraw and break the agreement then the innocent party is entitled to a compensation payment which Gazeal guarantee. This gives both parties security and peace of mind that the sale is secure and means that you reduce the risk of fall throughs.

Harrisons Homes – Sales & Lettings across Sittingbourne, Faversham & Isle of Sheppey

Strategic Thinking. Genuine Energy. Results That Deliver.

At Harrisons Homes, we do more than put properties on the market — we maximise outcomes for sellers and landlords alike.

On the sales side, our team of six advanced negotiators focus on one clear goal: securing the very best possible price for your home.

In the last three months alone (June–August 2025), we’ve achieved an average uplift of £14,290 for our sellers, equating to a 5.44% improvement on negotiated offers.

In lettings, we bring the same sharp focus and care to landlords and tenants. Whether you’re looking for straightforward rent collection or full management, our team ensures your investment is protected, your tenants are supported, and compliance is handled with ease.

Why Choose Harrisons Homes?

Sales that Achieve More: We don’t just sell houses — we negotiate harder to secure you the maximum return.

Lettings with Confidence: Clear, compliant, and reliable management for your property portfolio, from single lets to multiple homes.

Trusted Local Experts: Deep knowledge of Sittingbourne, Faversham, and the Isle of Sheppey gives you a real market advantage.

Marketing that Stands Out: High-quality photography, engaging property descriptions, and maximum exposure on Rightmove.

Support Beyond the Move: Straightforward advice, proactive communication, and a team that genuinely cares about your experience.

With Harrisons Homes, you don’t just get your property sold or let — you get a partner committed to achieving the best possible result, every time.

Understanding our customers

Your decision to move is personal to you - you are closing one chapter and starting a new one. There can be lots to consider. We understand the complexities involved and will aid you in any way we can.
