Set back on Prioress Road in Harbledown, this detached three-bedroom house provides a practical base for a family seeking proximity to Canterbury and local schools. The property is freehold, built in the 1980s, and occupies a modest plot with off-street parking and side access to a small gravelled/paved rear garden.
Internally the layout is straightforward: a large, well-lit lounge, separate kitchen and a cloakroom/WC on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a single family bathroom upstairs. At about 829 sq ft the accommodation suits growing families, guests or a home-working arrangement where one bedroom can double as an office.
The house is offered as a renovation project. Cosmetic and fabric repairs are required — paintwork and flooring in the kitchen show wear and some areas need refreshing — so buyers should factor refurbishment costs into any offer. There is scope to improve and reconfigure the interior, and potential to extend subject to the usual planning checks, but no permissions are confirmed.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The location scores for convenience: good transport links, nearby schools rated Good or independent options, shops and local amenities within easy reach. The plot is small and external storage/amenity space is limited; this will suit buyers seeking low-maintenance outside space rather than a large garden.
