Harkness Drive, Canterbury, Kent

Meadow House is a splendid, detached family home, offering over 1,800 sq ft of attractive accommodation, with neutral décor, wooden flooring, and high-quality modern fittings, including being recently fitted with advanced electric heating throughout.

On the ground floor there are three comfortable and well-appointed reception rooms. These include the useful private study at the front, which provides an ideal space for home working. There is also a well-proportioned sitting room, which has a wood-burning stove and stretches from the front to the rear of the ground floor, with a window at the front and French doors opening to the garden at the rear.

Double doors connect the sitting room to the other main living and entertaining space on the lower level, which is the kitchen and dining room. There is ample room for a family dining table, while the kitchen itself has stylish modern fitted units to base and wall level, integrated appliances and under-cabinet and skirting lighting.

The adjoining utility room offers further space for home storage and appliances, as well as access to the rear garden and the integrated garage.

Upstairs there are five double bedrooms, four of which overlook the private rear garden. These include the generous principal bedroom, which has a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. All four further bedrooms also benefit from built-in storage. Additionally, the first-floor landing leads to the family bathroom, as well as to a shower room, both of which have WCs.

The newly laid driveway to the front provides parking space for two or more vehicles, with further parking available on street along Harkness Drive.

The integrated garage offers additional parking or storage and workshop space. The garage also provides the potential for conversion into living accommodation if desired, subject to any necessary consents.

There is a large area of south-facing lawn at the front of the house, with the rear garden featuring further lawns and two patio seating areas, enclosed by high hedgerows with woodland beyond, for a sense of peace and seclusion. The garden also includes a timber-framed summer house/garden office.

The property is located in a peaceful and sought-after residential area close to the city centre, ideally positioned to enjoy all that Canterbury has to offer.

The historic city of Canterbury provides a wealth of recreational, cultural and everyday amenities including supermarkets, a broad range of high street and eclectic shops and a plethora of restaurants and public houses, together with a choice of well-regarded schools in both the state and independent sectors.
