It has taken the owners nearly a year to completely renovate, refurbish and extend this exquisite detached five bedroom family home to a very high standard, so it is just ready for new owners to walk straight in and do nothing but install their furniture. The location is ideal as it is situated along a quiet and tranquil road in the sought after West End of Folkestone, yet only a short walk to Folkestone West station with fast trains whisking you to St Pancras in 52 minutes, so you can be in London, door to door, in about an hour. It is also within walking distance of primary and grammar schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted, as well as the town centre and not far from the Channel Tunnel for a trip to France and lunch at your favourite French restaurant.
There is a wide entrance to the property leading to a large, block paved frontage for off road parking, with a gate to the south facing rear garden and a beautiful oak framed porch and contemporary front door. The impressive hall has panelled walls that continue up the stairs and landing, newly laid lvt flooring that flows through to the kitchen/dining room, black multi-pane double doors to the main living accommodation and an attractive black wood and wrought iron staircase to the first floor.
The very large galleried landing leads to a room with an oval contemporary bath, where you can relax and watch television, as well as five double bedrooms and the modern family shower room. The bedrooms include a dual aspect guest room with a bay window and an en suite shower, another bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and the first bedroom with its large dressing room and fitted cupboards, as well as a spacious en suite, incorporating a stunning shower and a modern vanity basin.
What the Owner says:
We bought this house because we felt the location was ideal for commuting and the local schools are excellent. We have totally refurbished the house to include new plumbing, electricals, flooring, bathroom and kitchen as well as the high end fixtures and fittings. However we are starting a new chapter in our lives and hope that another family will enjoy and appreciate everything we have done here to create a very contemporary home but retaining a few period features that provide a charming character.
Folkestone is a delightful seaside town with its plethora of restaurants, individual shops and businesses, including those in the Creative Quarter. There is also the famous Leas where you can walk along the vast green space at the top of the cliff, overlooking the sea across to France or stroll down to the beach and the award winning Lower Leas Coastal Park. There is also the rejuvenated Harbour Arm with its events, food stalls, champagne bar and artworks surrounding the harbour. For sporting enthusiasts there is the Folkestone Sports Club as well as the rugby, football, cricket, bowls and hockey clubs while golfing aficionados can play at the Henry Cotton designed Sene Valley or Etchinghill golf courses.
