Set on a generous plot in Cobham Close, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a spacious family layout and genuine scope to modernise and extend. The property sits about a mile from Canterbury city centre and benefits from fast broadband, good transport links and several highly rated local schools — practical for everyday family life.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a single bedroom with built-in wardrobes; downstairs offers a separate lounge, dining room, utility/WC and a dated 1970s kitchen that needs upgrading. The large, enclosed rear garden of approximately 80 ft, twin sheds (one new), garage and driveway for around four cars are major lifestyle strengths for families who value outdoor space and parking.
The house was built in the mid-20th century and has double glazing installed before 2002, mains gas central heating and cavity walls without added insulation. These features make the home comfortable now but mean there is clear thermal-improvement and modernisation potential — including roof, insulation, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, and possible extension (subject to planning).
This is a freehold, traditional-layout family home in a very affluent area with low flood risk and moderate council tax. Buyers after a ready-to-move-in showhome may prefer something newer; those seeking long-term value, rental potential or the chance to personalise a large-plot property will find strong appeal.
