Northwood incorporating Stevens are delighted to present this one bedroom semi detached home located along Canterbury Road in the popular Willesborough area of Ashford with no onward chain. Originally built as a two bedroom property, the home has been reconfigured to provide a spacious upstairs bathroom while the ground floor now offers a kitchen, utility cloakroom and rear lobby. The property is in need of work but represents a fantastic opportunity to create a wonderful home at a very competitive price.
The accommodation is well proportioned and offers excellent potential for improvement. The ground floor features a living room through to a dining area, a fitted kitchen, utility / cloakroom and rear lobby leading to the garden. Upstairs there is a generous double bedroom and a large bathroom which was formerly the second bedroom. With some thoughtful updating, this home could be transformed into a stylish and comfortable space.
Outside
To the rear of the property there is a generous garden mainly laid to lawn with mature planting and a timber shed. A garage and allocated parking space are located to the rear, providing secure storage or off road parking. To the front, the property benefits from a dropped curb offering potential to create a driveway subject to any necessary consents.
Location
Canterbury Road is situated within the sought after Willesborough area of Ashford, known for its character homes and convenient access to local amenities. The location offers excellent connectivity to Ashford Town Centre, Ashford International Station and Junction 10 of the M20, making it ideal for commuters. Local schools, shops and parks are all within easy reach, and the area enjoys a strong sense of community.

Japanese Knotweed Disclaimer
A very small and contained area of Japanese knotweed has been identified at the property, measuring approximately 0.04 square metres and located within a narrow planting strip in the front garden, as confirmed in the specialist survey.
To ensure full compliance with lender requirements, the vendors have commissioned and fully funded a Government recognised 10 Year Knotweed Management Plan, prepared by Japanese Knotweed Ltd in accordance with the Environment Agency guidance and the Property Care Association Code of Practice.
The plan includes a structured programme of professional herbicide treatments, monitoring visits and winter stem management, and is supported by an Insurance Backed Guarantee. This warranty is transferable to the new owner upon completion and provides long term protection against regrowth within the defined treatment zone.
Because the plan is lender approved, mortgage companies will accept the property for lending purposes. Buyers can proceed with confidence knowing that the knotweed is minimal, contained, professionally managed and fully covered for the next decade.
The full survey and Knotweed Management Plan documentation is available to prospective buyers upon request.
