The Gate House is an attractive, four-bedroom detached family home located in a small, exclusive development in South Canterbury, within walking distance to the City Centre and close to excellent secondary schools and the Kent & Canterbury Hospital. The property was built in 2003 by the reputable builders, Berkley Homes, and offers spacious accommodation which has been designed with modern family life in mind.

The downstairs living accommodation is spacious, with the layout flowing nicely. The heart of the home is the wonderful kitchen/family room, which is perfect for socialising and entertaining. Double doors from this room lead to a separate reception room, which is a fantastic extension of the living space. The doors can be left open for a more social and open layout or can be closed for an intimate and cosy feel. The kitchen is contemporary, with all-white kitchen cabinets and worktops for a sleek finish. Integrated appliances include an oven with a gas hob, a microwave and washing machine. There is also room for an American-style fridge/freezer and there is a breakfast bar. Also on the ground floor, you will find a WC and an office.

Stairs rise to a spacious landing with doors leading to four bedrooms, three of which are doubles, and a family bathroom. The main bedroom features built-in wardrobes and a large en-suite bathroom.

The current owners have obtained planning permission to build a two-storey extension to the side, which would result in a self-contained annexe on the ground floor, and four bedrooms, two en-suite shower rooms and a family bathroom on the first floor. For those interested, you can use the reference CA/23/00496 to search on the council`s planning portal.

Outside, you will find two separate areas of garden, both of which are low maintenance, perfect for busy families. The first area is laid to artificial lawn, with an attractive brick wall and mature hedges offering security and privacy. The second area is paved, with a decked area to the side with a large summer house. There is also a section of shingle and artificial lawn, where the current owners have a large trampoline for the children. There are gates leading to an allocated parking space and the property also has a garage.

Please be advised that there is a management charge for the development which is £816 per annum.
