Set on a generous plot in sought-after Rough Common, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers single-storey living with clear potential for modernisation. The property sits back from the road with a paved driveway, conservatory, and a long rear garden that maximises outdoor space — attractive to buyers wanting a garden and parking without stairs.
The interior footprint is compact and requires renovation throughout: updating kitchens, bathrooms, electrics and insulation will be needed to bring the home up to modern standards. With cavity walls currently without insulation (assumed) and older fittings, buyers should budget for refurbishment. The bungalow’s layout and plot allow scope for reconfiguration or extension, subject to planning permission, which could substantially increase usable living space and value.
Location is a strong selling point: Rough Common offers a peaceful, well-connected setting under two miles from Canterbury city centre, close to good schools including Blean Primary and the Simon Langton catchment area, woodland walks and local amenities. Very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and mains gas heating with radiators add practical appeal for families, downsizers or investors seeking a project in an affluent neighbourhood.
This property is best suited to buyers willing to invest in renovation—first-time buyers aiming to add long-term value, downsizers seeking single-storey living with garden space, or investors targeting a refurbishment and resale or rental. Flood risk is low and the site is freehold, which simplifies ownership for those planning works.
