Property DESCRIPTIONThis stunning semi-detached bungalow located in the heart of the Tankerton grid, offers three well-proportioned bedrooms alongside a beautiful rear extension, which comprises the kitchen and dining area with ample room for seating. The skylight and full-width bi-fold doors which lead to the rear garden provide plenty of natural light, whilst the rear garden boasts plenty of private space, with an outdoor utility shed and larger shed toward the rear.
Inside, the separate lounge boasts a shallow bay window and log burning stove in the fireplace, providing a central warmth to the room. The property was lovingly updated throughout in 2015, with a new central heating system, electricity and walls and ceilings replaced in this time. The property is by all accounts, the definition of a modern home internally with a 1930s frame.
Moments from the picturesque Tankerton slopes and beach adorned with iconic colourful huts, Tankerton is a popular region to the east of Whitstable to enjoy the seafront and The Whitstable Castle and Gardens with stunning elevated views out to sea. Tankerton Road offers a handful of amenities, eateries and shops whilst being quieter than Whitstable high street in the winter, yet equally as charming with plenty of festive lights.
The area is also convenient for those with young children, as St. Mary's Catholic Primary School and Swalecliffe Community Primary School provide two good options for primary education. For those required to commute to London, Whitstable or Chestfield & Swalecliffe train stations offer routes to London St. Pancras International or London Victoria in roughly 1hr 30 minutes, with both train stations in walking distance. Buses leave from various points on Tankerton Road, with the 400/401 servicing Tankerton to Canterbury.
