Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Canterbury, CT3 :

Franklyn Cottage dates back to 1752 and has kept much of the charming character typically associated with properties of this age. It sits on a large plot surrounded by countryside and stunning views. The front door opens into the double aspect living room which has original beams and wooden flooring. There is also a log burner set into the large brick fireplace and patio doors that open up onto the garden. Leading off the living room is another reception room/bedroom and the bathroom. The kitchen/diner is large enough to accommodate an eight person dining table without compromising on kitchen space. The kitchen is characterful yet functional and has space for a range cooker, dishwasher and washing machine. Upstairs are two large double bedrooms that have vaulted ceilings and exposed woodwork. Both rooms also have great countryside views. In recent years the property has been extended and the downstairs is currently being used as a utility room and separate games room whilst upstairs leads to a bedroom which has an en suite shower room. This section of the house could work perfectly as a one bedroom annex as it can be shut off from the main house via a door leading off the kitchen.
