4 bed Detached House
£625,000
South Street, South Tankerton, Whitstable
Standing on a substantial plot, this characterful detached chalet bungalow is believed to date from the mid 1930's and offers deceptively spacious and highly versatile accommodation.
A particular feature of the property is its impressive EPC rating of B which is exceptional for a property of this age. This has been assisted by the installation of 16 solar panels which benefit from a feed-in tariff. The income generated between August 2025 and July 2026 was just under £3,000 providing an attractive additional benefit for the new owner.
The well-proportioned accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a large kitchen/diner with direct access to the rear garden, a useful utility room and a spacious lounge featuring a log-burning stove and bi-folding doors opening onto the side garden. There is also a separate family room while the ground floor further benefits from a double bedroom and wet room providing excellent flexibility for family living, guests or those seeking single-level accommodation. To the first floor are three further good-sized bedrooms and a large family bathroom.
Outside, the property enjoys a delightful 221ft westerly facing rear garden which is truly a gardener's paradise. Offering an abundance of space the garden provides plenty of room for entertaining, gardening and for all the family to enjoy their own outdoor space. The 51ft x 47ft front garden provides ample off-road parking with a driveway extending alongside the property and leading to a carport and garage.
The property is also ideally positioned for local amenities and transport links. Tesco Superstore is approximately 725 yards away while bus services are available just 35 yards from the property providing convenient connections to the popular fishing town of Whitstable, approximately 1.5 miles away and the historic Cathedral City of Canterbury approximately 6 miles away.
Whitstable mainline railway station is approximately 0.9 of a mile away while the stunning Tankerton Slopes and seafront are approximately 1.1 miles away offering beautiful coastal walks and easy access to the waterfront.
