Your Key Move is delighted to bring to the market this much-loved and extended three-bedroom family home in Dolphins Road, Folkestone, offered CHAIN FREE at £410,000.


Having been cherished by the same family, this is a home with a real sense of history and warmth. While the property would now benefit from updating and modernisation, it has clearly been cared for over the years and provides a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to sympathetically enhance the accommodation, introduce their own style and create a home for the next chapter of its life.


And there is plenty here to work with.


With approximately 1,392 sq ft (129.3 sq m) of accommodation, including the attached garage, the property has already been extended and offers a surprisingly generous and versatile layout, complemented by a particularly attractive large rear garden which enjoys sunshine throughout the day.



Inside The Home


Step through the entrance porch and into the hallway, from where the ground-floor accommodation begins to unfold.


To the front is a generous reception room measuring approximately 14'5" x 13'3", featuring a bay window which brings plenty of natural light into the room.


Beyond this is a separate dining room measuring approximately 13'3" x 12'2", providing another excellent reception space and demonstrating just how versatile the ground floor of this home could be.


Towards the rear is a further lounge measuring approximately 11'0" x 10'0", overlooking the rear garden.


The kitchen measures approximately 10'0" x 8'0" and leads through to a separate breakfast room measuring approximately 9'6" x 8'0". For buyers looking to undertake improvements, this part of the house offers particularly interesting possibilities for reconfiguration, subject of course to any necessary consents and professional advice.


The extended accommodation continues with a substantial utility room measuring approximately 15'9" x 7'4", providing extremely useful additional space and direct access to the garden.


There is also an attached garage measuring approximately 18'10" x 8'2", together with a useful ground-floor storage cupboard.



Upstairs


The first floor provides three bedrooms and the family bathroom.


Two of the bedrooms are particularly generous doubles, measuring approximately 14'5" x 11'0" and 12'2" x 11'0", while the third bedroom measures approximately 8'11" x 8'0".


The family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.


Again, the appeal here is the opportunity. Rather than paying a premium for somebody else's choice of finishes, the next owner has the chance to update the property gradually and create something entirely their own, while retaining the character and proportions of this established family home.



A Garden To Really Enjoy


For us, the rear garden is another major feature of the property.


It is large, established and enjoys sunshine throughout the day, offering plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining, gardening or simply enjoying the outside space.


Immediately adjoining the house is a patio area, leading onto generous areas of lawn, with established planting and a greenhouse.


Continue towards the far end and you will even find a fruit tree, adding to the traditional feel of what has clearly been a garden enjoyed and tended over many years.


For a keen gardener, a family wanting plenty of outside space, or somebody simply looking for a garden they can make their own, there is a great deal to appreciate.



A Home Ready For Its Next Chapter


There is no attempt to disguise the fact that this property would benefit from modernisation. Instead, we believe that is part of what makes the opportunity so appealing.


The space is already here. The extension is already here. The attached garage is already here. And, importantly, the large sunny garden is already here.


What it now needs is a buyer who can see the potential and would enjoy putting their own stamp on a home that has meant a great deal to the family selling it.


Offered vacant and CHAIN FREE, the property has been priced at £410,000 with a prompt sale in mind, making early viewing highly recommended.
