5 Bed Detached House For Sale

There's something refreshing about this architectural home in the favoured West End of Folkestone -- Sam Clarke, Valuer



#TheGardenOfEngland



A striking contemporary home designed by CTM Architects LLP integrating high levels of glazing on the southern elevation to facilitate solar gains tempered by distinctive timber louvres.

The exceptional design sits well within this wide avenue in the highly regarded West End of Folkestone.




This stunning modern home was designed by CTM Architects who later evolved the award-winning Holloway Studio.

The design affords five bedrooms (4 En-suite) and creates light and airy contemporary spaces including a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living.

Set behind private gates, the property opens onto a generous driveway with ample parking, including a covered space for one vehicle.

Inside, the ground floor features an expansive open-plan layout, where a dramatic wall of glass doors floods the space with natural light and provides access to the rear garden. The heart of the home is the modern kitchen and living area, both enjoying the use of the dual-aspect wood-burning stove.

On the first floor, there is a feature room with glass wall, ideal as a hobby/reading area with door which opens directly onto a sun deck, also accessible from the main bedroom.

The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a spacious decked patio area.

This exceptional home combines design innovation of the time with practical family living and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Bouverie Road West is a particularly desirable address within Folkestone's sought-after ‘West End’ and a short, level walk, from Folkestone West Station and Folkestone Central station from where High-Speed trains travel to London St Pancras with a journey time of approx. 50 mins.

The M20 motorway, the Channel Tunnel Terminal and the Ferry Port of Dover are all within easy reach. Parallel to Bouverie Road West, the Edwardian Leas Promenade extends above the seafront with pleasant walks, fine views of the English Channel to France, a bandstand, and a concert hall.

From The Leas, paths lead down to the long stretches of shingle beach, a coastal park, the Creative Quarter and the recently revitalised Harbour Arm with champagne bar, live music and eateries.

There are several schools in the town, including boys' and girls' grammar schools and a choice of Primary schools. Sporting clubs can be found throughout the area.

The Cinque Ports Town of Hythe is approximately 4 miles distant, providing a further range of amenities including 4 supermarkets (including Waitrose, Sainsburys and Aldi), various independent shops and restaurants.

Nearby Sandgate is also a popular locality with its popular Primary School, cafes and bars and Rowing Club.
