*** FULLY DETACHED PROPERTY WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN *** Positioned on the desirable corner of Ridgeway Cliff and The Broadway, this substantial five-bedroom detached residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire a versatile family home in one of Herne Bay’s most sought-after settings. Just moments from the seafront and within easy reach of the town centre, this property perfectly combines generous accommodation with a highly convenient location.
The ground floor boasts an excellent layout for modern family living, featuring a welcoming entrance hall, a 24ft light and airy lounge, a formal dining room to the front that is currently used as a work from home space, but is certainly large enough to offer a downstairs guest bedroom if required. The contemporary kitchen/breakfast room provides a real hub of the home, offering ample storage space and worksurfaces, with built in appliances and double rangemaster oven whilst still having enough space for a breakfast bar that also benefits from the morning sun.
The kitchen is further complemented by a utility room and a cloakroom, ideal for when entertaining in the garden. There is another room off the kitchen which is currently used as a pantry and storage for outdoor entertaining and which is large enough to use as a sitting or entertainment room. Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms await, including a spacious master suite complete with fitted wardrobes and a modern large four-piece en-suite bathroom. A stylish family four-piece bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, one of which enjoys a sea view. The boarded-out loft area has built-in ladder access providing a large storage space.
Externally, the property is equally impressive. To the front, a driveway provides off-street parking for two vehicles, while the recently landscaped wrap-around garden offers both privacy and versatility with a mix of lawn, terrace as well as a premium greenhouse also useful for outdoor entertaining. Another standout feature is the purpose-built garden office, fitted with storage, desk space, air conditioning, and its own phone/internet line ready for connection, perfect for today’s home working lifestyle. The property has recently been redecorated with new exterior cladding and new carpets throughout.
