St. Martin's Hill, Canterbury, Kent

Part of this Grade II listed property dates back to Tudor times with later Georgian additions including the symmetrically positioned multi-pane sash windows, Kent peg tiled roof and panelled front door. This opens into a porch that leads to the hall with period floorboards, the original staircase, access to a cloakroom and a large walk-in cupboard. The country style kitchen/breakfast room is in the original part of the house and includes terracotta floor tiles, an exposed ceiling beam, units with stand-alone appliances, space for a table and chairs and access to the terrace, a large boot room that could be a utility room and a small courtyard area. There is a dual aspect morning room with a central beam, multi-pane French doors to the terrace and a door to the dining room with a cast iron fireplace and open fire, while the cosy sitting room includes a ceiling beam, a magnificent inglenook fireplace with a log burner and built in cupboards.

On the half landing there is a feature brick wall and wall beams up the stairs to the first floor that includes the family bathroom and three double bedrooms as well as the bright lounge with its tiled fireplace, arched recess and cupboards. The second floor has painted floorboards and two double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and a loft space that could become a shower room. The spacious terrace has an area designed for outdoor entertaining and steps up to a secluded patio and a lawn bordered by flower and shrub beds backing onto a brick wall. As well as a garage you can also obtain a resident's parking permit.
