Canterbury Road, Hawkinge, CT18

CHAIN FREE! Set in the heart of Hawkinge on the popular Canterbury Road, this charming and deceptively spacious three-bedroom detached home offers an enviable blend of versatile living, generous outdoor space, and exciting future potential. Occupying a prominent yet private position, the home sits behind a mature hedge with a large front garden that includes a well-maintained lawn, pond, and raised decking area — ideal for relaxing or entertaining in an enclosed setting. There's ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, both in front of the garage and within the large gated driveway to the side.

Stepping inside, the property immediately impresses with its generous proportions and flexibility. The layout is thoughtfully arranged over two levels, making it ideal for families or those seeking adaptable space. On the ground floor, a spacious double bedroom and large bathroom make an excellent guest suite or option for ground floor living. The kitchen is modern and well-equipped, with extensive worktops and storage, while a lean-to offers additional utility or storage space.

The expansive lounge diner is a real feature of the home, with its herringbone wooden flooring, inviting log burner, and French doors that open directly onto the courtyard-style rear garden, allowing a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. The dining room at the front of the house is separated with a set of glass double doors and offers yet another versatile space — perfect as a home office, snug, or formal dining room.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with two further double bedrooms and a second bathroom. The third bedroom enjoys direct access to a private balcony, providing elevated views over the courtyard and a perfect spot to unwind.

A particularly rare and valuable feature is the substantial garage/workshop, measuring over 33 feet in length. Whether you're running a business from home, need serious storage or workspace, or are thinking bigger, the potential here is undeniable. Subject to the relevant planning permissions, this area could even offer a development opportunity, with scope for a separate dwelling or annexe on the side plot.

Situated in central Hawkinge, the property is perfectly placed for those seeking village life with the convenience of nearby amenities. Just a short stroll away are a range of local shops, including a Tesco Express, pharmacy, post office, and a highly regarded GP surgery. There's also a choice of well-regarded primary schools within walking distance, and regular bus services providing easy access to both Folkestone and Canterbury.

For commuters, the location is ideal — the high-speed train service from Folkestone West can get you to London St Pancras in under an hour, and the nearby A20 and M20 provide swift road links in all directions. The stunning North Downs countryside is right on your doorstep, with miles of walking and cycling routes to explore, while the coast and beaches of Folkestone, Sandgate and Hythe are just a short drive away.

This is a home that offers so much more than meets the eye — a spacious and characterful detached property in a prime village location, with beautiful gardens, flexible living space, potential to develop, and the added benefit of no onward chain. A rare opportunity not to be missed.
