Description

*** CHAIN FREE**

Guide Price £540,000 - Chain Free


A substantial detached period home occupying a generous plot on one of Folkestone's most sought-after residential roads.


Rarely available to the open market, this large three-bedroom detached house is set along the highly regarded Surrenden Road, a quiet and established address where detached homes are few and far between. Offered chain free, the property presents a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to modernise and personalise a solid, characterful home in an exceptional location.



Accommodation


The property is approached via a long private driveway, providing ample parking for several vehicles and leading to a detached garage with a useful integrated shed/workshop area to the rear. Subject to the usual consents, this structure offers exciting potential for conversion into a home office, studio or self-contained annex.


A pathway to the side of the front garden leads to the original wooden front door, opening into a porch and then into the main hallway. Here, parquet flooring sets the tone and continues into the dining room. Beneath the stairs is a practical storage cupboard, ideal for coats and household items.


To the left of the hallway is a well-proportioned dining room, perfect for family meals or entertaining, while to the right is the generous lounge, a bright and welcoming space with multiple windows that flood the room with natural light — an ideal family living area.


Also accessed from the hallway is the kitchen, which is clean and fully functional but would benefit from updating. With some imagination, this could become a truly lovely heart of the home. From the kitchen there is direct access to the rear garden, along with a further door leading to the side passage, downstairs WC, and the garage.



Gardens


The rear garden is a real highlight — long, established and beautifully positioned, enjoying sunshine throughout the day and into the evening. Laid mainly to lawn, it features mature shrubs, trees and well-established planting. There is ample space for additional outbuildings if desired, along with a pleasant patio area at the rear of the house, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation.



First Floor


Upstairs, the landing provides access to several storage cupboards and a large loft, offering excellent storage or potential for future extension, subject to planning permission.


There are three generous double bedrooms, with the largest making an excellent principal bedroom. A separate WC and a family bathroom complete the first-floor accommodation.



Condition & Potential


While the house would benefit from general updating, it is a solid and well-built period property, offering an increasingly rare opportunity to create a bespoke family home in a premier location.



Location


Surrenden Road is widely regarded as one of Folkestone's most desirable residential streets — quiet, tree-lined and predominantly owner-occupied. Detached homes here are exceptionally scarce, making this a particularly appealing offering.


The property is ideally placed for access to Folkestone town centre, the vibrant Creative Quarter, and the seafront and Harbour Arm, all of which are just a short distance away. Folkestone West and Folkestone Central stations are within easy reach, providing high-speed rail services to London St Pancras in under an hour, making this an excellent choice for commuters.


There is a strong selection of well-regarded local schools, both primary and secondary, within convenient catchment areas, along with a range of local shops, cafés, supermarkets and leisure facilities close by. Road links are also excellent, with easy access to the A20, M20 and Channel Tunnel terminal.



Summary


A rare chance to acquire a detached, chain-free home on one of Folkestone's most prestigious roads — full of character, space and potential. For buyers seeking a property that they can truly make their own, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
