Description

Situated along the highly sought after Lesley Avenue in South Canterbury, this impressive four bedroom detached family home occupies a generous corner plot, tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. With its attractive 1930s architecture, newly fitted bay windows, spacious accommodation and beautifully established rear garden, the property offers an excellent opportunity for families looking for a home in one of Canterbury's most desirable residential locations.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a spacious entrance hallway providing access to the principal rooms. To the front is an attractive bay fronted lounge, offering a comfortable space for relaxing, with French doors connecting the lounge to the separate dining room which benefits from sliding doors opening directly onto the rear garden.

The modern kitchen features integrated appliances and opens into a generous breakfast room, creating a practical and sociable space for everyday family living. There is also a useful rear vestibule and downstairs WC, which has plumbing for a washing machine. A separate study with fitted desk and storage provides an ideal space for those working from home.

Upstairs, the first floor offers four well proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite shower facilities, alongside a family bathroom and additional separate shower room.

A further feature is the useful loft space, accessed via a pull down ladder. Fully carpeted and benefiting from a skylight window and eaves storage, this provides excellent additional space for storage or occasional use.

Externally, the property really comes into its own. Occupying one of the largest plots along the road, the rear garden is particularly generous, mature and enjoys an excellent degree of privacy, being largely unoverlooked. The garden features an attractive selection of established trees, including magnolia, camellia and maple, along with a lawn and patio area, creating a wonderful setting for outdoor entertaining and family use.

To the front, a block paved driveway provides parking for approximately three vehicles, together with access to the garage.

Lesley Avenue is ideally positioned for access to Kent & Canterbury Hospital, the Simon Langton grammar schools and Canterbury city centre. Canterbury West railway station also offers high-speed services towards London.
