DESCRIPTION
Situated in an idyllic position in the heart of the town, just along from Hythe's historic St Leonards Church, this detached bungalow has been in the hands of the same family for many years and it is fair to say that the property now requires extensive refurbishment and updating. However, as it occupies a generous plot and enjoys well proportioned accommodation it offers intending purchasers the opportunity to create a superb home tailored to suit their own tastes and requirements, is considered well worthy of any expenditure required and has been priced accordingly. There may also be scope to extend (subject to all necessary consents being obtained).

The property is set behind a high Grade II Listed ragstone wall affording a great deal of privacy to the front garden, alongside this is a driveway providing off street parking and access to the garage. A pathway winds through the garden to the front door and entrance hall which leads to the very comfortably proportioned accommodation which comprises a spacious sitting open plan to the dining room, a kitchen, three double bedrooms, a bathroom and a cloakroom.

Whilst currently somewhat overgrown, the garden to the rear of the bungalow will be a particularly appealing asset of the property as it enjoys a southerly aspect, is of a generous size and is delightfully secluded. The retaining wall at the end of the garden which fronts Hillside Street is Grade II Listed and does require repair.

For room sizes please refer to the floorplan.

SITUATION
Church Road is situated within the desirable Conservation Area of the town, three roads back from the bustling High Street, with its range of interesting shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafes, doctors' surgeries, etc. the town is also well served by four supermarkets including Waitrose and Sainsburys. The attractive, unspoilt seafront and picturesque Royal Military Canal are only a little further away together with a variety of sports and leisure facilities, including 2 golf courses and the Hotel Imperial Leisure Centre.

The area is fortunate in having particularly good communications with a main line railway station in Saltwood (Sandling - 3 miles) and access to the M20 (Junction 11 - 4 miles). The High Speed Link rail service to Stratford and St Pancras is available from Folkestone West (5 miles) and Ashford International (10 miles), with journey times of 53 and 37 minutes respectively. Eurostar trains to Paris and Brussels also depart from the latter. The Channel Tunnel Terminal is just over 3 miles away and the ferry port of Dover 12 miles away. (All distances are approximate.)

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 4, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
