Property Description: Situated on a private road, off the popular New Dover Road is this wonderful four bedroom family home set over three floors. Just half a mile from the city centre, this is an exclusive location yet easily accessible for all the local amenities, schools and commuting. The property is just one of four houses on a gated development tucked away at the end of a pretty tree lined private road.

The property has a light and airy feel throughout with a bright modern interior and is deceptively spacious with several reception rooms, allowing space for all the family. The entrance hall has a utility/cloakroom and double doors opening into the living room which has a lovely bay window and a feature stone fireplace with a gas fire. A small study is located off the living room and has French doors opening onto the garden. The dining room can also be accessed from the living room and provides a wonderful space for a potential play room/TV room and has French doors opening onto the garden. The contemporary kitchen/breakfast room is double aspect with French doors opening onto the patio. The kitchen has a great range of storage with a water softener/waste disposal, AEG oven and combi oven with microwave, AEG induction hob and extractor unit, integrated Whirlpool dishwasher, a large Electrolux fridge and a separate large Hotpoint freezer. There is also a great island with bar stools, perfect for entertaining or breakfast time.

On the first floor there are two great sized double bedrooms, both of which have their own fully tiled modern ensuite bathrooms with shower and separate bath and a dressing room. On the top floor there are a further two double bedrooms which share a shower room.

Outside: The development is entered via an electric gate onto a gravel square. The property has a single garage with an electric door and additional parking space to the front. There is also parking for one car to the front of the house and rear gate access. The rear garden is private and secluded with a raised decked area to take in the sunshine on those sunny summer evenings. There is a further paved seating area and a lovely lawn with a shed for storage.

Location: Portland Square is set back from New Dover Road at the end of its own tree lined gated driveway just half a mile from the town centre. For those in need of retail therapy Canterbury hosts an array of shops and boutiques, along with fine dining and restaurants serving dishes from across the globe. The Kent County Cricket ground and the Kent & Canterbury hospital are less than a mile away. For those wishing to commute, Canterbury West & Canterbury East train stations are 1.1 and 0.7 miles away.
