Description

This semi-detached bungalow is nestled in a desirable central Tankerton location, just a short walk from the picturesque seafront. The property is well-positioned for enjoying the scenic promenade that leads to the lively Whitstable Harbour, making it ideal for those who appreciate coastal living. While this home has been cherished, it presents a prime opportunity for renovation, allowing future owners to tailor the space to their preferences. The layout includes an inviting entrance hall, a spacious lounge/diner with views of the rear garden, and a functional kitchen that connects directly to the outdoor area. Two generously sized bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, alongside a bathroom and separate WC. Set on a good-sized plot, the rear garden extends approximately 65 feet, offering significant potential not only for outdoor activities but also for expansion or redesign (subject to relevant planning permissions). This outdoor space features both lawn and mature flower beds, creating a serene environment that could be transformed further with some investment. Convenience is another highlight of this property; it is located just 325 yards from Tankerton’s range of shops, restaurants, and cafés. Public transport options are readily available with regular bus services nearby, facilitating easy access to Whitstable's vibrant town center (around 1.3 miles away) and the historic city of Canterbury (approximately 7 miles). For commuting purposes, Whitstable mainline railway station is about 1.1 miles away, providing frequent services to London. In summary, this bungalow not only offers comfortable living but also invites new owners to capitalize on its renovation potential in an attractive locale that benefits from both community amenities and natural beauty.
