About this property

A rare chance to secure a prime St Dunstans property with huge potential, set in a quiet cul de sac just moments from Canterbury West station and the High Street. Sitting on a generous corner plot with space to extend, improve, and add serious value, this three bedroom semi detached home is the classic “worst house on the best road” — and that’s exactly why it’s such an opportunity.

And let’s be upfront: this is for serious buyers only. If you’re nervous about auctions, unsure what you want, or can’t see the clear value here, then move on. This is for buyers who recognise potential when they see it and are ready to act.

The property offers a large reception area, two double bedrooms and a third single, and a good sized private garden that isn’t overlooked. The corner plot provides a driveway with room to expand, plus a garage en bloc around the corner. Crucially, the house has previously had planning permission approved for a double storey side extension, a transformation many neighbouring homes have already completed. Whether you want to create your ideal family home or develop it as a high yield investment, the scope here is exceptional.

The location speaks for itself. St Dunstan’s remains one of Canterbury’s most desirable and resilient markets, with strong prices, constant demand, and unbeatable access to the high speed London link. Homes in this pocket rarely come up — and almost never with this much potential to shape, extend, and maximise.

Buying through auction simply means a faster, more secure purchase with far less chance of the sale falling through — So ask yourself: what exactly are you scared of? The process is straightforward, mortgage buyers are welcome, and the upside is obvious.
