About
Mount Pleasant Road, Folkestone, Kent, CT20 1HU Guide Price: £250,000 A substantial and highly versatile freehold townhouse arranged over four well-proportioned levels, offering flexible accommodation suited to a variety of buyers, from first-time purchasers to investors seeking HMO or multi-unit potential.
Occupying a prime and highly convenient position within the sought-after CT20 postcode, this property is ideally placed for access to everything Folkestone has to offer.
The home is within easy reach of the vibrant Folkestone Harbour Arm, now a popular destination for independent eateries, bars, events and coastal walks, alongside the town's sandy beaches and regenerated seafront.
The property is also conveniently positioned for the town centre, offering a wide range of shopping, dining and everyday amenities.
Excellent transport links are available nearby via Folkestone Central railway station, providing high-speed services to London St Pancras in under an hour, making this an ideal location for commuters.
The CT20 area continues to benefit from ongoing regeneration and strong demand, enhancing both lifestyle appeal and investment value.
The property is approached via steps leading down to the lower ground floor, where a spacious open-plan kitchen/living area forms the heart of the home.
This inviting space benefits from direct access to a private, low-maintenance sun-trap garden—perfect for outdoor dining and relaxation, and notably not overlooked.
There is also a handy shower room and seperate toilet off the lounge area.
The upper ground floor, accessed either internally or via the main front entrance, comprises a central hallway leading to two well-sized rooms currently arranged as bedrooms.
One features an attractive bay window and incorporates a fitted kitchen along one wall, offering scope for reconfiguration into a generous reception room if desired.
On the first floor, a particularly large and stylish family bathroom is fitted with a modern suite including a bath and separate power shower.
This level also hosts a spacious double bedroom filled with natural light.
The top floor completes the accommodation with a further bedroom, ideal as a guest room, home office or additional sleeping space.
Currently arranged as a four-bedroom property, the layout could easily be adapted to create fewer bedrooms and additional reception areas depending on requirements.
The property also presents potential for conversion into separate flats (subject to the necessary consents) or potential use as an HMO investment.
