Summary - London Road, Canterbury, Kent, CT2 CT2 8LR
2 bed 2 bath Terraced
Large central home with loft potential, garden and rare off‑street parking.
Grade II listed former inn, built c.1540, lots of historic character
Set across 1,447 sq ft, this Grade II listed former inn offers exceptional central Canterbury presence and substantial upside for a buyer prepared to renovate. The house sits directly on London Road, moments from Canterbury West station, the city centre and local schools — a practical base for professionals, students or an investor seeking rented income.
The property retains many period features and a generous garden plus off-street parking accessed from Whitstable Road (space described for multiple vehicles). Internally the layout provides two large double bedrooms, two bathrooms, cellar storage and an extensive loft/attic void that could deliver significant additional accommodation subject to survey, permissions and upgrade.
Important practical points: the listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate building work and approvals. The loft and some internal finishes require substantial repair and modernisation. The property fronts directly onto the pavement with a very small plot at the front and shows cosmetic wear to render and joinery — realistic refurbishment costs should be factored in.
For an investor or buyer who values location and historic character, this house combines clear potential with immediate practical benefits (station links, parking, garden). If you want a central Canterbury property with scope to add value, this offers a rare canvas — but plan on listed-consent processes and significant refurbishment work.
