Canterbury Road, Bilting TN25

Canterbury Road, Bilting

Property Description: Guide Price £850,000 - £875,000. Set within approximately 0.62 acres in the semi-rural hamlet of Bilting, this beautifully refurbished chalet bungalow has been designed to make the most of its generous gardens and far-reaching countryside views. The result is a light, contemporary home with flexible accommodation, an impressive open-plan living space and a wonderful connection between the house and its surroundings.

The sense of space begins in the entrance hall, where a vaulted ceiling, rooflights and galleried first-floor landing create an impressive introduction to the house. From here, the accommodation flows through to the principal living areas, with natural light and views of the garden recurring throughout.

At the heart of the home is the substantial open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. Extending to over 36ft, this is a superb everyday living and entertaining space, with a luxury fitted kitchen arranged around a large central island and integrated appliances. There is ample room for a dining table alongside a relaxed seating area, while a wide run of bi-fold doors open directly onto the terrace and garden beyond. A separate living room provides a quieter retreat and takes in the outlook across the surrounding countryside. There is also a study, ideal for those working from home, together with a utility room.

The flexible layout includes a double bedroom on the ground floor alongside a separate shower room, making this particularly useful for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to 3 further bedrooms. The principal bedroom is especially generous at over 21ft in length and has its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.

Outside: Outside is every bit as important as the accommodation. The established gardens extend to approximately 0.62 acres and have clearly been carefully tended, with sweeping lawns, mature trees, shaped shrubs and well-stocked beds creating interest throughout the plot. A large terrace immediately behind the house provides plenty of room for outdoor dining and entertaining, with the open countryside beyond forming an impressive backdrop. There is a workshop/shed at the end of the garden.

To the front, a generous driveway provides parking and turning space for several vehicles and leads to the attached double garage, which has power and lighting. The size of the plot may also provide scope to further extend the property to the side or above the garage, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Location: Bilting is a small rural hamlet set between Canterbury and Ashford, surrounded by attractive Kent countryside yet particularly well placed for accessing both. Canterbury provides an excellent choice of highly regarded state and independent schools, together with the city’s extensive shopping, leisure and cultural amenities. Canterbury West station also runs direct High Speed services to London St Pancras, with journeys taking approximately 55 minutes. In the opposite direction, Ashford provides further shopping and leisure facilities, as well as William Harvey Hospital in Willesborough. Ashford International is another major advantage for commuters, with direct High Speed services reaching London St Pancras in approximately 38 minutes. The position therefore works particularly well for those looking for a countryside home while retaining convenient access to two of Kent’s principal centres, a broad choice of schooling and some of the county’s fastest rail connections into London.
