Description

A beautifully presented former school which has been thoughtfully converted and extended to create a wonderful family home in this much sought after village, offered for sale with no forward chain.

The front door opens to the entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading to the ground floor bedrooms. These are in the original school and feature large picture windows and original features such as the original school tiled floor. One of the bedrooms is currently used as a dressing room. From the hall there is a modern downstairs shower room with a walk in shower, w.c and a wash hand basin.

The thoughtfully designed home office leads through to the impressive kitchen/dining room which has a high vaulted ceiling with Velux windows which flood the room with natural light. The kitchen is fitted with a good range of modern gloss units under solid wood worktops. There is a central island with a breakfast bar area and a full range of integrated appliances. The dining room has French doors which lead out to a covered veranda, a fantastic space for summer BBQs.

Upstairs comprises the impressive master bedroom suite with its large bedroom and luxurious en-suite bathroom with free standing bath, walk in shower, vanity units and an impressive high vaulted ceiling with Velux windows. It is thought this space could be reconfigured to create an additional upstairs bedroom if required.

Outside, the house is set back from the lane and is approached by a gravel drive through electric gates. There is a large mature front garden with a variety of established trees and shrubs and plenty of off road parking.

There is a fantastic Mediterranean style patio accessed from the kitchen, this is a great, secluded space for summer al fresco dining.

Most of the garden lies to the rear and is fence enclosed with a variety of mature trees. There is a lovely outlook over woodland beyond the garden.

Westbere is a small, peaceful village located just northeast of Canterbury. Set along the River Stour, it offers a rural, tranquil atmosphere with traditional Kentish cottages and scenic views. The village has historical roots dating back to Saxon times, and the nearby Westbere Lakes, now a nature reserve, provide a lovely spot for walking and birdwatching. With its charming 12th-century church and popular village pub serving gastro style cuisine, the village has a wonderful community.

There is excellent access to Canterbury with the Cathedral city being just over three miles away. Canterbury is a historic city, renowned for its rich cultural heritage and stunning architecture. The city is most famous for Canterbury Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a key pilgrimage destination, which forms the heart of the city. Canterbury's charming streets are lined with medieval buildings, quaint shops and cosy cafes, creating a vibrant yet peaceful atmosphere. Educationally, Canterbury is very well provided for with an excellent choice of schools for all ages and abilities in the state and private sectors and there are two universities.
