Step inside 2 Sharnbrook Place

This absolutely stunning contemporary property, built in 2019 to an extremely high standard by renowned developers Pentland Homes, looks as pristine today as it did when it was the showhouse in this quiet enclave of striking modern homes. Although located in a quiet cul-de-sac of just four houses it is only a short walk into Canterbury city centre.

There is a path to the contemporary front door that opens into a spacious welcoming entrance hall with a well-appointed cloakroom, solid wood flooring and underfloor heating that flows throughout most of the ground floor. The superb open plan kitchen has ceramic tiled flooring while the wood floor continues into the light and bright dining area.

In the kitchen there is a large central island breakfast bar as well as a raft of modern flat fronted units with under shelf lighting housing a double self-cleaning oven, a gas hob with an electric extractor fan, an integrated dishwasher, a full height fridge and separate freezer as well as a discreetly hidden washing machine and tumble dryer. The very light and bright dining area includes air conditioning, an impressive lantern window, four bifolding doors and patio doors to the terrace.

If you are looking for a little peace and quiet there is an elegant lounge accessed from the hall via a pair of glazed doors with full height windows providing views across the surrounding orchards. While on the other side of the hall is an excellent study with views over the orchard that is ideal for anyone working from home. It also has a door to the carpeted double garage with electronic doors and a workshop area.

Off the first floor galleried landing there is a contemporary family bathroom with a bath and separate shower as well as four double bedrooms with built in cupboards including a second bedroom with an en suite shower and the first bedroom with an en suite triple shower, an ‘observatory’ style ceiling inset with electric blinds, air conditioning and wonderful views.

The very easy to manage and attractive rear garden has been beautifully designed and landscaped and includes an impressive curved terrace for outdoor entertaining and a curved lawn as well as a useful storage shed with lighting and electrics, a recently installed border fence, shrubs and English Hornbeam trees with charming inset lighting. There is an irrigation system and a back door to the drive where you can park two cars and another door to the front path.

There are TV and phone charging points in most of the rooms, bespoke blinds on all the windows, air conditioning in the principal bedroom and seating/dining areas and steel shutters on the windows in the kitchen and seating areas for security. There is also an alarm system and CCTV, so makes the property extremely safe.

Seller Insight

Whether you are looking for a permanent home or a weekend retreat this is a very easy to manage property and you can ‘lock up and go’ without having to worry as it is has been designed to be very secure. It is a very convenient side of Canterbury as you can get on the A2 for London, Dover and the Channel Tunnel in about a minute, while Wincheap provides a variety of individual shops, food outlets and pubs. We love the peace and quiet location of the house yet it is only a short walk to Morrisons, Aldi and the retail park and only about a 10 minute stroll into Canterbury.

Canterbury is a special city with a wide variety of historic UNESCO heritage site buildings, high street stores and individual shops, numerous restaurants, bars and the cinema as well as the Marlowe and Gulbenkian theatres and two stations including Canterbury West with the high speed train to St Pancras that will get you to London in less than an hour. There are also excellent grammar and private schools, three universities and a further education college and plenty of opportunities for sporting enthusiasts with the Kent cricket ground nearby as well as a golf club, sports club and swimming pool.*
