Woodrow Chase, Herne Bay

Occupying a generous plot within the ever popular village of Herne, this exceptional detached bungalow has been thoughtfully reconfigured from its original three bedroom layout into an expansive and much more impressive two bedroom bungalow.
Having benefited from significant recent improvements and upgrades, including a new roof, replacement boiler, air conditioning and new windows, the home is presented in impeccable order and is perfectly suited to buyers seeking a property that is ready to enjoy from day one.

At the heart of the home lies a wonderfully light filled open-plan living area. The elegant dual-aspect kitchen/diner flows seamlessly into the lounge, creating a superb space for both everyday life and entertaining. The kitchen is well equipped and features sleek, contemporary gloss units with ample worktop space.

The thoughtful reconfiguration of the accommodation has created two exceptionally spacious double bedrooms, each offering plenty of room for additional furniture or dressing areas. Completing the internal accommodation is a contemporary shower room finished to a high standard, together with a practical cloakroom/utility room that adds further convenience to everyday living.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The beautifully maintained rear garden provides a private and tranquil setting, ideal for relaxing or entertaining throughout the seasons. A standout feature is the substantial insulated log cabin, complete with underfloor heating, offering remarkable versatility as a home office, creative studio, gym, guest accommodation, or peaceful garden retreat.

To the front, a large block-paved driveway provides extensive off-street parking for multiple vehicles, further enhancing the practicality of this outstanding home.
