Summary - 14 DRYING SHED LANE CT1 2FR
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Ideal commuter pad minutes from Canterbury West and East stations.
Open-plan living with balcony and modern fitted kitchen
Set within the popular Old Tannery development just inside Canterbury’s city walls, this two-bedroom apartment offers a contemporary, low-maintenance home for first-time buyers or commuting professionals. The open-plan living area opens onto a balcony, and the fitted kitchen includes a fridge/freezer, washing machine, hob and oven — all arranged for practical everyday use. The main bedroom benefits from an en suite shower, while a second bedroom doubles as a guest room or home office.
Practical positives include an allocated off-street parking space beneath the block, communal gated gardens with a children’s play area, and secure nearby bicycle storage. Rail commuters will value the short walk to both Canterbury East and West stations with direct links to London and high-speed services to St Pancras.
Buyers should be aware this is a leasehold apartment with 104 years remaining, an annual service charge of £2,413.91 and ground rent of £391.07. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which can raise running costs. The property sits in an area classed with higher crime statistics and a medium flood risk; prospective purchasers should factor these into insurance and safety considerations.
Overall, the flat is a well-presented, contemporary option for someone who prioritises location, easy upkeep and transport links, but it carries predictable leasehold costs and higher-than-average local safety and environmental risks that warrant due diligence.
