Description

***GUIDE PRICE £325,000 - 350,000***

This three-bedroom semi-detached house was very solidly built in the 1950’s and has housed the previous owners since the early 1970’s. The house sits back from the pavement behind a privet hedge and grassed area with a drive for a couple of cars alongside of the property. The front access to the house is through a double-glazed door, into a brick porch, and then the front door into the spacious hallway. To the right is a good-sized reception room. This room has a fireplace and chimney, and so potential to install a log burner. The stairs to the first floor are on the left. Straight ahead is the door to the kitchen. The kitchen is a usable size with a small walk-in larder which could be altered depending on requirements. The window looks south over the rear garden. A door to the right as you enter the kitchen opens into the dining room which has a large window facing south over the garden. This room also has a fireplace and chimney. The potential here is to make one large reception room by installing an archway through to the first reception room, this has been done in several houses in the area. Turning left out of the kitchen is a short passage way to the door opening onto the drive, in this passage is a walk-in storage area which I believe was the “coal hole”, and on the right side, is a WC.

Upstairs: At the top of the stairs is the landing, immediately to the left is the bathroom (and WC) with a walk-in airing cupboard which also houses the modern combi-boiler which runs the gas central heating throughout the property. Straight on from the stairs is one of the two larger bedrooms, with views to the south over the garden, next to it, is the second of the larger bedrooms which faces north looking out over the fields. The third and smaller bedroom, also faces north looking over the fields. This property has a large and high attic which has been partially boarded and this is another potential for enlarging the living space.

Outside:

This property has planning permission to build an annex in the large mature garden, this would still leave plenty of garden to enjoy. The garden is approximately 27 metres long, by 10 metres wide narrowing at the end. The garden can be easily made secure or dogs or children with the addition of a gate. There is a long brick shed attached to the property, which was part of the original build, this also has potential for adding a second storey as the neighbouring property has done. A well-built brick garage stands at the end of the drive with lights and power. Approx. 5 metres by 3 metres

The mainline railway station is within easy walking distance (trains to London ). The seaside towns of Whitstable, Herne Bay, Margate and Ramsgate are all easily accessible by car bus or train. The port of Dover, the Channel Tunnel are also within easy reach, and Canterbury only four miles.
