Property description

'WHAT THE OWNERS SAY' - We had looked at over 100 properties before we chose 23 Cherry Orchard; we only wanted a house whereby the kitchen and lounge would both open up to the garden. As soon as Caroline opened the door to Cherry Orchard we felt the happy atmosphere of the house, saw the good size garden and wanted to live there. The house has good sized rooms and a lovely hallway. On our very first view the children sat on the upstairs window seat and it felt like a home. The kitchen is large enough for a big family table and we changed the dining room to a playroom, but it works well either way. The house is very attractive from the outside with a good sized front garden. It's a very safe neighbourhood for children to grow up and is near excellent primary and secondary schools. The road is very quiet and as there are bungalows both in front and behind it means that you are never overlooked. Chestfield is a lovely village and everyone takes care of their houses. We love being just a five minute drive from either Canterbury or Whitstable. We often cycle to the beach or along the Crab and Winkle Way. There is a Sainsbury's and Tesco close by. We have loved having family and friends visit and everyone enjoys being in our home. It's one of those houses which is cosy at Christmas and has a warm micro climate in the summer, the garden is often at least 5 degrees warmer than down the coast. There is lots of storage space both internally and externally which makes life easier.
