A striking pair of double-fronted period townhouse and garden with excellent potential
Kenya Court is a handsome pair of brick-built period townhouses with bright bay windows and an array of original character features including high corniced ceilings, bay and sash windows and feature fireplaces.
The property is currently being utilised as eight separate apartments, offering a wealth of investment and renovation potential for split accommodation, or for conversion into a larger family home (subject to any necessary consents) totalling over 4,500 sq ft in all.
With mirrored accommodation, the property is entered via steps up to one of the two airy reception halls leading to turned stairways to the first floor and access to the lower ground level.
On the lower ground is a bedroom with integrated storage to the front bay aspect, followed by a family bathroom, kitchen and sitting room with views to the peaceful garden. The lower ground hallway also gives access to the south-westerly facing terrace and garden.
On the ground floor are front-facing principal bedrooms, each with bay windows and built-in wardrobes; beyond are further reception rooms, kitchens and fitted bathrooms.
The first and second floors house two adaptable bedrooms/reception rooms with built-in storage and both with additional family bathrooms and kitchens, enjoying elevated views to the front and rear.
Outside
The property has a slightly set back position with a low-level brick-built wall enclosing a low-maintenance front terrace and a walkway on either side to the private rear garden.
Enjoying a warm south-westerly aspect and enclosed via original brick walls and fencing, the rear garden has dappled shade via surrounding mature trees, bamboo and established shrub borders, with a large section of lush level lawn and a sun terrace ideal for al fresco dining.
Situation
The property is located just north of the historic city of Canterbury, with its wealth of recreational, cultural and everyday amenities including supermarkets, shops and restaurants. Nearby Barton Wood and Blean Forest are ideal for walking and cycling. Several notable educational facilities include The Kings School, St Edmunds School and The University of Kent.
The A2 and M2 offer convenient road links, with a High-Speed train service to London St Pancras from Canterbury West with journey times of under an hour.
