South Street, Whitstable

A detached 1930s bungalow set within 0.27 acre plot of mature gardens, a large driveway and its very own fruit orchard. This three-bedroom property has been generously extended over the years and now includes almost 1400 sq. ft of spacious and versatile accommodation with the opportunity to make further enhancements.

The driveway leads to the garage and the front door which sits at the side of the property, this opens into an entrance hallway which leads to two reception rooms and a simple white kitchen with integrated sink and Bosch oven.

The dual aspect sitting room has a charming bay window overlooking the front, and there is a brick chimney breast, with recently installed gas fire.

Light tunnels have been installed to draw natural light into the hallway and dining room, however walls could be removed to create an open plan family living area.

There are three double bedrooms and two well appointed family bathrooms, one of which is an ensuite wet room which was added in the early 2000.

The living accommodation is complemented by a double-glazed conservatory which overlooks the expanse of space within this enchanting garden.

OUTSIDE:

The front driveway has recently been re-laid with block paving and offers parking for several cars. To the left of the driveway there is topiary hedging and some established shrubs, whilst at the end of the driveway there is a garage/workshop.

The rear garden has been beautifully manicured with areas for herbs and wildflowers, from the conservatory there is a large patio/barbeque area which is sheltered by a pergola.

At the foot of the garden there is several outbuildings, and an archway takes you into a small orchard with a chicken coop and an array of fruit trees such as apple, plum, pear and mulberry.
