Description

Nestled within the historic City walls, this Grade II Listed two-bedroom cottage presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Situated on a tranquil street, it is conveniently located just a short walk from the High Street and all the amenities of the city center. The current layout features an open plan sitting room/dining area, a functional kitchen, and a downstairs bathroom. Upstairs, you will find a landing leading to the front-facing bedroom and a versatile study/bedroom two at the rear, where there is potential to install a staircase to access the loft space, transforming it into additional living quarters – pending planning and listed building consent. Notably, planning permission was granted in September 2022 for an ambitious double-height two-storey rear extension, which opens up further possibilities for enhancing living space; details can be found under reference CA/22/00673 on the Canterbury City Council website. This property combines historical charm with modern potential in an idyllic location that provides easy access to Canterbury Cathedral and fast train services to London St Pancras in just 56 minutes. Despite being centrally located, the cottage offers a serene environment away from urban noise. Additionally, residents can apply for parking permits through Canterbury City Council.
