This roomy five-bedroom semi-detached house on Alder Road offers versatile family living in a well-regarded Folkestone suburb. The property combines generous reception space—separate lounge, open-plan kitchen/diner and a garden room—with a large rear garden, double garage and driveway for multiple cars, giving practical indoor-outdoor flow for family life and entertaining.
Energy-efficiency is a clear advantage: a B-rated EPC, solar panels and a thermal water heater reduce running costs and appeal to eco-minded buyers. The layout includes a utility room and downstairs cloakroom for everyday convenience, plus two upstairs bathrooms and five double bedrooms, making it suitable for larger families or flexible home-office use.
Set on a large plot in a sought-after road, the location is a major draw: local primary and secondary schools rated Good–Outstanding are nearby, the train station and town centre are walkable, and the coast is close. Built in the 1930s–1940s, the home has solid period proportions but some areas will benefit from routine updating and checks.
Buyers should note practical matters before viewing: council tax is above average, glazing install date is unknown, and any previous extensions should have planning/building-regulation confirmation. Overall this is a well-located, spacious family home with strong energy credentials and scope to personalise.
