Summary - 25 ETHELBERT ROAD CANTERBURY CT1 3ND
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Large south-west garden plot with strong redevelopment potential near Canterbury centre.
Large 2,423 sqft footprint including linked garage
Set on one of Canterbury’s most desirable roads, this substantial 1960s chalet-style detached home sits on a double lateral plot just under 2,500 sqft (including the linked garage). The property offers clear scope for a careful renovation to create a comfortable family home or for more ambitious redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents. The rear garden faces south-west for excellent afternoon and evening sun and measures approximately 112ft, providing space for extension or an additional building plot.
Internally the layout provides four first-floor bedrooms, a ground-floor kitchen, dining room, reception room and a linked attached garage. The footprint is generous with good room proportions, though the interior is tired and in need of refurbishment. Practical considerations include a single bathroom for four bedrooms, double glazing installed before 2002, and an older gas boiler and radiator heating system.
Off-street parking is extensive with a long driveway and a circa 43ft garage. The property is offered freehold and is competitively priced to reflect the renovation requirement. Its location puts city amenities, reputable schools and rail links within easy reach, making it suitable for families seeking a long-term project or developers looking to unlock site potential.
Buyers should note the property requires updating throughout and any redevelopment would need planning permission. Council tax is described as quite expensive, and the presentation will require investment to modernise services and finishes. The plot, size and location, however, create a rare opportunity in Canterbury’s premium address.
