Overview

Believed to date from the 18th century, 18 Palace Street is a fine Grade II listed townhouse occupying a prime position on Canterbury's historic King's Mile. Rich in period character, the property retains an array of original features, including exposed timber beams, brick-built fireplaces and decorative stained-glass windows, while offering well-balanced accommodation arranged over four levels.

The ground floor opens to a welcoming dining room at the front of the house, where timber flooring, exposed beams and understated décor create a warm first impression. At the centre of the home, the kitchen and breakfast room is fitted with contemporary cabinetry, wooden work surfaces, a central island and integrated appliances, while the adjoining utility room provides additional storage and space for laundry appliances.

Further storage is available in the cellar.

To the rear, the generous triple-aspect sitting room enjoys excellent natural light and features a handsome fireplace together with an attractive stained-glass window. A rear entrance hall with flagstone flooring provides access to the courtyard garden.

The first floor comprises two spacious double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom, which benefits from an en suite bathroom with both a bath and a separate shower. A family shower room also serves this level.

The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, one of which enjoys the advantage of an en suite bathroom.
