About
This rarely available two bedroom detached bungalow is set on a generous plot in the highly sought after Lenacre Street location, just off Sandyhurst Lane.
The property offers an exciting opportunity for improvement and modernisation to the existing home, or the erection of a replacement dwelling under local planning reference pa/2024/0553 (subject to the necessary consents).
The bungalow currently comprises two well-proportioned bedrooms, a spacious living area, and a kitchen overlooking the rear garden and open countryside beyond.
Offered to the market with no onward chain, this home presents a rare chance to acquire a detached bungalow in a desirable rural location.
The property is also conveniently positioned for access to the M20, A251 to Faversham, Eastwell Manor, and a range of excellent local schooling options.
The outside space is a particular feature of this property, with large front gardens enclosed by a charming picket fence and a path leading to the front door.
There is gated side access to the rear garden, which is mostly laid to lawn and includes a selection of mature shrubs and established trees.
The generous plot backs directly onto open farmland, offering uninterrupted countryside views and a wonderful sense of seclusion (ideal for those who appreciate outdoor living and nature).
The detached garage is situated to the side of the property and there is driveway parking for multiple vehicles, making it perfect for families or those with guests.
This substantial garden space provides plenty of potential for landscaping, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
Whether you are looking to modernise the existing bungalow or create your dream home, this property offers a unique and versatile opportunity in one of Ashford’s most desirable semi-rural locations.
