This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers single-floor living in a quiet Herne Bay neighbourhood, close to local shops and several well-rated primary and secondary schools. The layout is traditional and compact, with a front lounge, two double bedrooms, a kitchen at the rear and an east-facing garden that catches morning sun. At 561 sq ft the home is small but manageable, making it practical for downsizers or buyers seeking a low-maintenance property.
Built in the mid-20th century and described as well looked after, the property nevertheless shows signs of aging and would benefit from modernization to bring fixtures and finishes up to contemporary standards. The living room has a mid-century fireplace and large window but fittings are dated; some updating to the kitchen and bathroom will be needed for buyers wanting a modern finish. Double glazing is present though the installation date is unknown.
Practical features include mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, cavity-filled walls, freehold tenure and a modest, easy-to-manage rear garden with patio and mature borders. The small plot and compact room sizes mean limited scope for large extensions without planning; however the bungalow’s layout and single-storey form make it an attractive option for those prioritising step-free living.
Location is a key selling point: shops and amenities are nearby, public transport links to Canterbury and London are accessible, and the area has average crime and deprivation indicators. For buyers seeking a straightforward, small bungalow to adapt to their taste, this property represents accessible entry into Herne Bay with good local schooling and coastal leisure nearby.
