About
Guide price £350,000 to £375,000 Beautifully presented and thoughtfully extended, this two bedroom detached bungalow sits on Crofton Road in the popular seaside town of Westgate-on-Sea.
The home offers around 792 sqft of well planned single storey living, the main bedroom benefits from en-suite facilities, landscaped gardens to the front and rear, acoustic glazing and the rare benefit of off-road parking on two separate driveways.
Open farmland lies close by.
The current owners have clearly cared for the home, with plantation shutters to the front windows, wood-effect flooring throughout much of the accommodation and a thoughtful rear extension that has transformed the living space.
At the heart of the home is a superb living/ dining room of almost 29 feet in length, flooded with natural light from a lantern roof and wide picture windows.
A contemporary wood burning stove makes the room just as inviting through the winter months, while French doors open onto a covered decked veranda that is perfect for relaxed evenings outdoors.
The accommodation in brief comprises; entrance hall, the impressive living/ dining room, and a well appointed kitchen fitted with gloss white units, metro tiled splashbacks, twin ovens, a gas hob, an integrated microwave and a wine cooler, with a door out to the garden.
The principal bedroom is a comfortable double with its own en-suite bathroom featuring a traditional roll-top bath and the second bedroom is serviced by a stylish shower room with a walk-in rainfall shower.
Externally, the bungalow is approached through a charming cottage-style front garden behind a picket fence, planted with established shrubs and flowers.
To the front there is a generous block paved driveway providing off-road parking.
Gated side access leads to the low maintenance rear garden, which is laid mainly to artificial lawn with raised beds, a block paved pathway, a covered decked seating area and garden storage.
A further block paved driveway to the rear provides additional parking, ideal for visitors, a second car or anyone with a caravan or boat in mind.
Westgate-on-Sea blends classic Victorian charm with easy coastal living.
Two sandy bays, St Mildred’s and West Bay, offer family-friendly swimming, rock pools and sunset promenades, with a clifftop path linking towards Margate and Birchington.
The high street keeps things local with independents, cafés, a traditional butcher and greengrocer and the characterful Carlton Cinema.
Primary schools, secondary options, parks and supermarkets are all close by.
Westgate-on-Sea station has services to London and Canterbury, with HS1 connections at Margate or Ramsgate for St Pancras, while the A28 and A299 make road travel to Canterbury and the M2 straightforward.
It suits buyers who want a friendly seaside town with practical connections.
