This detached chalet bungalow sits on a substantial plot in popular Shorne, offering sweeping countryside views and mature grounds including a tennis court. The house presents immediate family living with generous reception rooms, a double garage and parking on the driveway. Planning permission is already granted for dormer extensions to create additional bedrooms and an ensuite, increasing usable accommodation and value.
The property is best suited to buyers seeking renovation and extension potential rather than a fully modernised home. Many rooms are good-sized, but the interior will benefit from updating and refurbishment to realise the property’s full potential. Services and appliances are not guaranteed to be in working order; purchasers should verify all fixtures, fittings and utility arrangements.
Practical considerations include slow broadband speeds and an expensive council tax band. The home is freehold and chain-free, which helps simplify a purchase, but any further development would require the usual planning and building regulation consents. Overall this is a large, characterful family home with strong scope for extension, modernization and capital appreciation in an affluent village setting.
