Description
This exquisite 1930s five-bedroom detached property, Orwell House, is situated on the highly sought-after New Dover Road, just moments from excellent schools and within walking distance of Canterbury's city center. The property boasts almost 2700 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation, set on a generous 0.88-acre plot, with multiple outbuildings and garaging that could be converted into a self-contained annexe. The grand, double-fronted period home features original Art Deco elements, including open fireplaces, high ceilings, and intricate cornicing, offering a unique blend of heritage and modernity. The property has been lovingly maintained by one family for over 50 years and presents an opportunity for further modernization. The enchanting gardens surround a long driveway, leading to ample parking and a garage, while the rear grounds offer a vast, mainly laid-to-lawn space with mature trees and multiple outbuildings. With its convenient location, Orwell House is an ideal family home, offering a perfect balance between city and country living.
