About this home
Miles & Barr are delighted to present this impressive six-bedroom Neo-Georgian semi-detached home, offering spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, set within a private close in the popular Cheriton area of Folkestone. Occupying a generous 0.17-acre plot, the property is ideally positioned for local schools, amenities and transport links, with Folkestone West station just half a mile away, providing high-speed connections to London.
The ground floor offers a wonderful balance of living and entertaining space, beginning with a bright and welcoming living room which flows through to an additional garden room, creating a lovely space to relax while enjoying views over the garden. To the rear, the modern kitchen has been thoughtfully extended to create an impressive kitchen/diner, with bi-fold doors opening directly onto the garden and allowing plenty of natural light to flood the space. Further ground floor benefits include a useful utility room and downstairs WC.
Arranged across the upper floors are six well-proportioned bedrooms, complemented by four modern bathrooms, making this an ideal home for larger families or those requiring flexible accommodation for working from home or visiting guests.
Externally, the property is set back within its private close, with off-street parking to the front. The generous wraparound garden is a particular highlight, enjoying a southerly aspect and providing plenty of space for outdoor dining, entertaining and family enjoyment.
Combining substantial accommodation, a generous plot and a convenient yet tucked-away location, this is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in one of Folkestone's popular residential areas.
