Nargate Close, Littlebourne, Canterbury, Kent, CT3 1UL

Blink and you will miss the entrance to the exclusive private close which conceals a substantial four bedroom house that you could be lucky enough to call home. Turn into the close and look to the right as the walled entrance to your property reveals itself. The circular driveway leads you in and around the pond which has a beautiful fountain feature and is known to be the part time home of a family of ducks, a gentle reminder of the countryside location of your new home. There are lawned areas to either side of the driveway which compliment the reeds of the pond and mains powered lighting to guide you in when you return home late.

The parking area is plentiful, so choose a space either to the front of the detached double garage or pick one of the single garage doors to open to park inside, whatever is your preference. Head to the front door and let the weight of the world melt away as you turn the key in the lock to enter your bright and airy porch. Kick off your shoes and head through into the palatial entrance hall which sets the tone for the space to follow. The beautiful hard wood flooring welcomes you inside and you can hear the buzz of family life throughout the ground floor. There is a handy downstairs cloakroom located next to the staircase and access to the utility room to the right. The sound of laughter can be heard from the snug, located to the right hand side of the entrance hall, which is being used by the older children to watch TV. To the left, the younger ones are wearing themselves out playing games in the immense extended 31 ft living/dining room which has French doors out onto the expansive rear garden, perfect for playing!

Take the door from the dining area that leads into the vast kitchen/dining room. Dinner is roasting in the eye level double oven as you spy the evidence of freshly baked goods on the normally pristine granite worktops. The sizeable breakfast bar is the perfect place for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine, so pour yourself a glass and take a seat and survey the multitude of storage and work top space on offer. The French doors to the dining area are closed so that you can take a moment to catch up on the days events before calling the family in to eat together. Imagine throwing the doors to the extended kitchen/dining room open in the summer months as you host a family barbecue in your sweeping rear garden. The circular flow of the ground floor layout is simple yet incredibly effective. Each room is generous with plenty of light creating an airy living space that is practical too. The utility room is set to the rear of the kitchen and leads out to the patio area of the wrap around garden.

You are now opposite the one bedroom annexe that is situated to the rear of the detached double garage. The side access allows your inhabitants to have their own private access without disturbing the main house, making this an ideal annex when you combine it with the plethora of parking. There is a door that leads into the double garage as well as a second door that leads into the separate annex. As you enter, you will see a door to the kitchen/dining room directly in front of you. There is plenty of storage and work top space plus dual aspect windows that illuminate this space with light. There is a ground floor shower room to the left hand side of the entrance hall and a staircase that leads to a living room and a spacious bedroom which has plenty of space for furniture. Perhaps you could consider converting this building further and separating the title to create a completely separate property? To the opposite side of the main house there are gates that open to a large side garden that could be utilised to build a further garage if need be, subject to necessary planning. What an exciting opportunity!

As the evening draws in, it is time to explore the first floor of this beautiful home. The master suite mirrors the substantial living/dining room creating a private oasis just for you. The roomy bedroom has a door that leads you into a mirrored dressing area which has a hidden walk in wardrobe to one side, perfect! To the rear of the dressing area you will find the en suite which has a separate double shower and a roll top bath, perfect for an evening bubble bath to unwind.

The fourth bedroom would make an ideal study for those who need to work from home with the third bedroom situated beside it which is a good sized double room with built in wardrobes. The family bathroom is a chic homage to sophistication with marbled wall tiles, floating soft close sink unit and a P shaped bath with a shower fitted over it. There is a Jack and Jill en suite shower room which is accessed via the hallway and the second bedroom. This is a good sized double room which has large sliding wardrobes fitted, perfect for growing children who want a little more independence.

The second bedroom leads out onto the rear landing which has double doors out onto a balcony that provides panoramic views across the garden and beyond. A wonderful spot to make the most of the natural setting of your home as you enjoy the sound of bird song with a good book. How idyllic.

This property has been vastly extended by the current owner to create a lavish sense of space without compromising on the external space this home has to offer. The detached double garage and one bedroom dwelling offer future opportunity for you, or could be the perfect solution to blend several generations within one setting all tucked away in this exclusive location. What more could you want?
