Practical family layout with parking and a private garden near transport links.
Chain free freehold property
Guide price £280,000–£300,000. This end-of-terrace home on Blackthorn Road offers practical family living across three bedrooms and two reception rooms. The layout is flexible — a bright lounge and separate dining room suit family life or home-working, while a modern kitchen opens onto a private rear garden with a raised deck for outdoor use. A ground-floor cloakroom and ensuite WC off the master add everyday convenience.
Outside, the property benefits from off-street tandem parking for two cars and a small but usable rear garden. Constructed around 1996–2002, the house has double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. It is chain free and held on freehold title, making a straightforward purchase for owner-occupiers or investors seeking a ready-to-move-in rental asset.
Important practical points: the overall footprint is modest (about 728 sq ft) and the plot is small, so outdoor space and internal storage are limited compared with larger family homes. Local recorded crime is above average for the area — prospective buyers should consider this when viewing. The house sits in a quiet residential development with good transport links: Sturry station is close and regular bus routes connect to Canterbury and the coast. Local schools, including a nearby secondary and primary options rated Good-to-Outstanding, make the location suitable for families.
This is a straightforward, modern home that will suit a small family, first-time buyer moving up, or investor wanting a low-maintenance property in a commuter-friendly location. Expect modest running costs (mains gas heating, double glazing) but limited expansion potential due to plot size.
