Located on the popular Highfield development in Willsborough, Ashford, this three-bedroom detached home on Drake Road offers an exciting opportunity for buyers looking for a property with great potential. The accommodation includes a spacious lounge, a kitchen/diner, a ground floor WC, three bedrooms, and a first-floor shower room. The property also benefits from an integral garage with lighting and plumbing for white goods.
Since purchasing in 2021, the current owner have invested in a range of energy-saving upgrades, including a 2.9kWp solar panel system on the east-facing roof, complemented by a 15kWh Huawei Fusion Solar battery and a 5kW hybrid inverter. This system provides an estimated £400 per year in energy savings. The home also features an Octopus Energy smart electricity meter, and an Octopus Cosy 6 air-source heat pump with a 180-litre water tank located in the garage. Three new radiators have been installed in the lounge, hallway, and bathroom, improving the heating efficiency throughout the home.
Additional improvements include a 7kW Rolec electric vehicle charger in the garage, upgraded loft insulation to 270mm with boarding for storage, and new lighting in both the loft and garage. A new shower tray has been installed, alongside a new electrical consumer unit with upgraded 25mm2 tails, 16mm2 earth, and an increased mains power supply upgraded from 60A to 100A via a 35mm2 aluminium cable, offering future-proofed electrical capacity.
While these significant energy and infrastructure upgrades have been made, the property is ready for further cosmetic updating, providing the perfect opportunity for a new owner to personalise it to their own taste. The asking price reflects the work required, making this an ideal purchase for those looking to add value in a popular Ashford location.
