Property DESCRIPTIONThis wonderful, detached house situated between Swalecliffe and Tankerton provides families with a great opportunity to buy a large property with wide rooms and ample living space, whilst tailoring it to suit your needs. The property is mid-century in design, with four well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs which can be decoratively updated to one's own taste. The wide landing and entrance hallway both enjoy floods of natural light from the landing window, whilst the dining area sits directly off the entrance way. To the right, access through to the double garage and cloakroom provides further storage for the property, where the kitchen/conservatory area offers ample dining space to free up the dining area as a second reception room. The full-length lounge offers a dual aspect with plenty of light from the front and rear, boasting an impressive space for larger furniture and function.

Outside, the rear garden is privately positioned, with a park home site sat in the distance at the back and a low-level brook running along the edge of the plot. The garden is a large lawn area that enjoys plenty of sunshine and is ideal for those wanting a generous outdoor space. The front lawn and gated access are two areas that give this property a wonderful aspect at the front, with ample parking available on the driveway or in the garages.

An elevated district to the east side of Whitstable and Tankerton, Swalecliffe is an affordable location for those wanting to live a stones-throw from the beach whilst also living near to the mainline Chestfield & Swalecliffe train station for commuting to London. With regular service to London St. Pancras Int'll or London Victoria in roughly 1hr 30 minutes and the 5 bus covering Canterbury to Seasalter via Whitstable, there are several convenient options here for travel. It is a short walk from Swalecliffe to the Tankerton slopes and coastal promenade, perfect for enjoying the fresh sea air.
