In need of slight modernisation

Situated along the ever-popular Swalecliffe Road, this well-proportioned two-bedroom detached bungalow offers an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to modernise and create a home tailored to their own taste, all within easy reach of the coast and local amenities.
Set back from the road with a front garden and driveway leading to a substantial garage (measuring over 24ft in length), the property has a welcoming presence and excellent kerb appeal. Internally, the accommodation is well laid out, comprising a central entrance hall, a generous 16ft lounge to the rear, and a separate kitchen overlooking the side of the property. While the kitchen and bathroom would now benefit from updating, they provide a solid foundation for refurbishment and the chance to reconfigure if desired, subject to the necessary consents.
To the rear, a large conservatory stretches across the back of the bungalow, offering additional reception space and enjoying views over the garden. This room presents further potential either to improve and integrate into the main living accommodation or to remodel entirely, depending on a buyer’s vision.
There are two good-sized double bedrooms, both positioned off the main hallway, along with a family bathroom. The layout lends itself well to those downsizing, small families, or buyers seeking single-storey living with scope to add value.
One of the standout features is the rear garden. Generous in size and mature in nature, it offers fantastic potential for landscaping and could become a superb private outdoor space. Whether someone is looking to create a contemporary garden retreat or simply clear and level the existing space, the proportions here are a real asset.
Swalecliffe Road remains a highly convenient location, within comfortable reach of local shops, bus routes and Swalecliffe’s seafront. Whitstable town centre, with its vibrant High Street, working harbour and mainline station providing direct links to London, is also easily accessible, making this an appealing option for both permanent residence and weekend coastal living.
In summary, this is a detached bungalow in a sought-after coastal location, requiring slight modernisation but offering generous proportions, a large garage and significant potential to enhance and add value.

Location
The popular seaside town of Whitstable is situated on the stunning North Kent coast, 7 miles north of the historical city of Canterbury and less than 60 miles from central London. With its quaint alley ways, colourful high street and peaceful shingle beaches this town has a lot to offer both residents and holiday makers. For entertainment there are excellent water sport facilities, plenty of art galleries, and a wealth of independently run restaurants, boutiques and cafes to enjoy along the vibrant high street. The Crab and Winkle Way, one of the earliest passenger railways and the first ever steam-powered railway in the world, follows the disused railway line between Canterbury and Whitstable, and is now a popular walking and cycle route through woods and countryside. Road links via the A299 Thanet Way give easy access to the M2 for travel to London and beyond. Whitstable also has a main line train station providing fast and frequent links into London Victoria (1hr 30 mins) and London St Pancras (1hr 11mins).
