Broad Street is a captivating period property, brimming with character and full of delightful surprises.
From the outside, the cottage presents a quaint and traditional façade, but upon entering, the expansive space unfolds with generously sized rooms spread across multiple levels. The current owners have carried out extensive renovations, blending modern comforts with period charm.
The front of the house features a cosy snug, complete with a charming benched bay window and attractive exposed beams. This leads to the spacious sitting room, which boasts a wood-burning stove set in the original inglenook fireplace and views over the peaceful rear garden. A long inner hallway connects to the dining room, ideal for both formal and informal dining, and offers easy access to the bright and airy kitchen. Completing the ground floor is a convenient utility area and an adjoining bathroom.
On the first floor, four bedrooms offer versatile space to suit family needs or guest accommodation. A second bathroom and a separate WC provide additional convenience. The principal bedroom is a true highlight, featuring exposed beams and an impressive oversized sash window with views over the garden. The first-floor landing also provides ample storage space.
A separate staircase leads to a charming second-floor bedroom, also with exposed beams, ideal as either a cosy bedroom or a peaceful office space.
The rear garden enjoys sunlight throughout the day, with a large side terrace perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. A path winds through lush lawns and mature planting beds, leading to a second garden area filled with shrubs and cottage-style plants, creating a serene oasis. A brick outbuilding provides handy garden storage at the rear.
A garage, located in a private block behind Dean Court, is just a short distance from the house.
Situated in an enviable location near Canterbury’s iconic cathedral, the property is perfectly positioned to enjoy all the city’s cultural, recreational, and sporting amenities. The area also boasts excellent educational options, including the renowned King’s School, just a few metres away.
