Description

Nestled in the desirable Bishopstone area of Herne Bay, this detached bungalow stands on a generous plot on Hillborough Drive, offering an excellent renovation opportunity. Spanning over 850 sq.ft, the home presents flexible living options with potential for either two or three bedrooms, adapting to your personal needs. The property features a spacious lounge measuring 13'11" and a separate sitting room that could be converted into a third bedroom, alongside two additional double bedrooms, a fitted kitchen, and a family bathroom. With the existing condition suggesting light modernisation is needed, this home has been well maintained over the years and provides significant scope for enhancement and personalization. The sizable plot opens doors to exciting possibilities for extensions or reconfigurations, pending appropriate planning permissions. The standout feature of this property is undoubtedly its expansive rear garden, approximately 115ft long and 50ft wide. This lush outdoor space is perfect for families, gardening enthusiasts, or those who enjoy hosting gatherings outdoors while providing ample privacy. Practicality meets functionality with off-road parking available via a driveway leading to a gated carport and detached garage. Located in one of Herne Bay's most sought-after areas, it enjoys access to reputable schools (including the highly-rated Reculver Primary), local shops, bus routes and the seafront. Furthermore, the town centre and mainline railway station are conveniently close by, linking directly to London. Properties like this that combine substantial plots with improvement potential are rare on the market making it an appealing prospect for long-term investment.
