Black Griffin Lane, Canterbury, Kent, CT1

This charming two bedroom Victorian terraced home offers well balanced accommodation, character features and a low maintenance sunny garden, making it an ideal purchase for first time buyers, investors or those looking to enjoy period living with modern touches.

The property is approached via a gated front garden, providing an attractive entrance and a degree of privacy from the street. Internally, the home has been thoughtfully arranged to create a practical and sociable layout across two floors.

On the ground floor, the accommodation begins with a welcoming lounge positioned at the front of the property, offering a cosy yet comfortable living space. This area flows through into a dining space, with the wall opened up to create a more open plan feel, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining guests.

To the rear of the property is the kitchen, which has recently been redecorated to provide a fresh and updated finish. The kitchen benefits from newly fitted beechwood worktops along with painted units, creating a clean and modern look while maintaining a practical workspace with good storage and preparation areas. You will also find a separate utility room, a particularly useful addition that provides additional storage and laundry space, helping to keep the main kitchen area uncluttered and functional.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises two well proportioned double bedrooms, both offering comfortable accommodation with space for furnishings and storage. These rooms are served by a large, modern family bathroom which has been finished to a good standard, providing both style and practicality.

Externally, the rear garden has been designed for ease of maintenance and enjoys a sunny aspect. The space is predominantly block paved with attractive flower beds adding colour and character, making it an ideal area for relaxing or entertaining during the warmer months.

To the front, the gated garden enhances the overall kerb appeal while offering a pleasant outdoor space and added privacy.
