This extensively renovated four-bedroom detached home sits on 0.38 acres of versatile grounds on the edge of Broad Oak, a peaceful rural setting a few miles from Canterbury. The ground floor’s open-plan family room with high ceilings, skylight, bespoke quartz kitchen island and retractable bi-fold doors creates a bright sociable hub that flows to a large patio and countryside views. Underfloor heating and porcelain tiles add contemporary comfort; the property extends to over 2,500 sq ft including a generous master suite with dressing room, ensuite and a Juliet balcony.
A converted outbuilding provides self-contained accommodation with kitchenette, bathroom and bedroom, offering potential as a guest annexe or holiday let subject to any required planning permission. The gated gravel drive provides secure off-street parking for multiple cars and low-maintenance planted grounds around the house. Local amenities, good schools and fast rail links from Canterbury make this appealing for commuting families seeking rural life with city access.
Known negatives are factual and important: the property’s EPC is rated D and heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, which may concern buyers prioritising low running costs or gas connections. Broadband speeds are reported slow in the area. The annexe was formed from a garage and would need formal approval for permanent residential use if that is required. Overall, the house is newly renovated to a high standard but buyers should consider energy performance and connectivity when budgeting.
This home suits buyers who want immediate, high-spec family living in a tranquil countryside location with flexible accommodation for guests or income potential. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, craftsmanship and the plot’s privacy and outlook.
