Herne Bay, Kent

Step inside 35 Station Road

This stunning link-detached contemporary property replaced the original bungalow and provides everything you need for modern day living. It is ideally situated only a minute’s walk to the station and just across the road from the delightful Memorial Park. This gives you the opportunity to enjoy a gentle stroll through the grounds to the seafront with its historic pier and old buildings as well as the town centre where you will find a selection of individual shops, bars and restaurants.

The house was built with great style and imagination and to the highest standards with oak doors and LVT (Luxury vinyl tiles) flooring throughout the ground floor. Indeed the first thing you notice as you pull into the block paved driveway is the attractive frontage with its vast window area above and each side of the modern front door. These windows provide plenty of natural light pouring into the double height and impressive entrance hall.

This leads to all the main rooms on the ground floor including the very large open plan living space with its double glass and wood entrance doors, contemporary kitchen, dining and family areas with four skylights and a veritable wall of bifolding doors to the garden. The kitchen includes a central island breakfast bar, two built in ovens, an induction hob, a built in combi microwave, two wine coolers, a Fridgemaster American style fridge freezer and a dishwasher. Adjacent is a utility room and boot room that is being used as a study currently. There is also a cloakroom and a sitting room. Off the galleried landing upstairs there is a contemporary family bathroom with a bath and separate shower and four double bedrooms including the main bedroom with en suite facilities.

The easy to manage garden is laid to lawn with a hard wearing tarmac terrace and a separate building that is well insulated and has lighting and electrics. It would make an ideal beauty salon, gym, games room or office for anyone who wants to work from home but be undisturbed by activities in the home. It also includes a store room that could always be converted into a shower if anyone needs to provide additional accommodation or is looking to obtain an income from using it as a holiday let. At the front of the property you will find an integral garage and off road parking for at least two or three cars.

Seller Insight

“I decided to buy this house from new as I wanted somewhere I could move straight into and I feel the location is ideal. It is easy for commuters and having the park opposite provides a fun place to walk the dog and for children to play. Herne Bay is a charming seaside town and not only do you have the shops, seafront and pier but there is a cinema, a theatre and a market every Saturday. You are also close to the Thanet Way for immediate access to Canterbury, London and the Thanet towns.

You can enjoy the coastline, nature and wildlife on walking and cycling trails through the Reculver coastal park or visit some of the museums and art galleries along the cultural train. For water sport enthusiasts there is sailing and jet skiing and golfing aficionados can enjoy the nearby Whitstable and Seasalter or the Chestfield golf clubs. There are some good primary schools including Herne Primary rated by Ofsted as Outstanding as well as the Herne Bay High school and a number of secondary grammar and private schools in Canterbury, Thanet and Sandwich”.*
