About this home

Set atop the famous White Cliffs, this grand two / three bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers a rare opportunity to own a spacious retreat with panoramic sea views. The property boasts a mature south-facing garden which perfectly frames the vista beyond. One can relax in their kitchen, living room & main bedroom whilst watching the ships sail past the French coastline. Situated on the coveted south side of the road, the slightly sloped garden creates the illusion that the garden reaches the horizon. This private space is the perfect setting for family gatherings, bird watching and even spotting the occasional Spitfire going overhead. The large plot also offers lots of potential to extend to suit ones needs. At the front, a big sweeping driveway welcomes you home, offering ample space for multiple vehicles.

Internally the property features two generously sized double bedrooms, each offering comfort and style, with the potential to turn the dining back into a third bedroom. The two bedrooms both have access to the shower room whilst there is a separate family bathroom. The bright open plan living space is highlighted by a working fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for cosy nights in. Enjoy direct sea views from both the main bedroom and kitchen, bringing the beauty of the natural surroundings into your daily life.

The property is well located with a village shop nearby, bus stops with regular services to Dover & Folkestone, a great village pub and clifftop cafe. A fantastic home to retire to or just to escape the hustle and bustle.

Location Summary Awarded Best Place to Live in The South East by The Times 2024; This coastal town is the very model of modern regeneration for shipshape and stylish living. Folkestone has seen much regeneration over the past few years, with much more planned going forward, especially surrounding the town centre and Harbour. Folkestone has a large array of shops, boutiques and restaurants as well as many hotels and tourist attractions. Folkestone is fortunate to have two High Speed Rail links to London, both offering a London commute in under an hour. There are great transport links to surrounding towns and cities and easy access to the continent too. With so much going on and with the future bright, Folkestone is an excellent location to both live and invest in.
