Description

This detached Edwardian house, set in 1.1 acres of grounds, has been untouched for 70 years and is located just a stone's throw from Sturry station. The property, which has original features, needs complete refurbishment but offers a rare development opportunity. The house has a porch with stained glass insets, a study with half-height panelling, a dual-aspect sitting room, and a kitchen with a pantry and conservatory. The first floor has four double bedrooms, and the second floor has two large attic stores and two vaulted attic rooms. The gardens, which include mature trees, shrubs, and a 'secret garden', need TLC, but also offer potential for development. The property has numerous outbuildings, including a greenhouse, and is situated in a Conservation Area where planning permission could be sought to develop the footprint of some of the outbuildings. Sturry village offers a range of amenities, and nearby Canterbury has a rich history, excellent schools, and cultural attractions.
