***CHAIN FREE** Canterbury Road, Lyminge, Folkestone, Kent CT18 8HD A substantial detached bungalow with annex, set within an exceptional plot enjoying far-reaching countryside views Occupying a wonderfully secluded and generously proportioned plot, this impressive detached bungalow offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home of considerable scale, complemented by a self-contained detached annex, extensive parking and beautifully expansive gardens, all set on the rural edge of the popular village of Lyminge, near Folkestone. The property is offered chain free, providing an excellent opportunity for a smooth and uncomplicated purchase. Approached via a private driveway, the property enjoys parking for several vehicles and an attractive lawned front garden bordered by mature trees, creating a strong sense of privacy and arrival. To the right of the driveway sits the detached annex, ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodation or income potential. The Annex The annex features a shared entrance porch, leading to an annex bedroom, a lounge/dining room with kitchen area, inner hallway and a separate shower room. Its independent layout offers excellent flexibility while remaining discreetly positioned from the main residence. The Main Bungalow The central front door opens into a welcoming entrance hallway, setting the tone for the generous proportions found throughout. To the right, a particularly well-sized kitchen/breakfast room enjoys views over the garden and leads through to a utility room with WC and direct access to the rear garden — ideal for practical family living. Straight ahead, the heart of the home is the open-plan sitting room and dining area, flooded with natural light via large sliding glass doors opening directly onto the rear terrace and garden, with additional side and rear windows enhancing the bright, airy feel. The dining area could easily be adapted to create a fourth bedroom, or enclosed to provide a more formal dining space, offering excellent versatility. The bedroom accommodation is thoughtfully arranged along the left wing of the property, comprising: A family bathroom with bath and separate shower Two generous double bedrooms A particularly impressive principal bedroom at the far end, complete with its own en-suite bathroom Gardens & Grounds The rear garden is a standout feature — exceptionally wide, beautifully long and predominantly laid to lawn, it stretches away from the house to reveal stunning elevated views across the surrounding valley and countryside beyond. This peaceful outlook perfectly complements the home’s rural setting and offers a true sense of escape. Potential & Opportunity Although the property would benefit from modernisation and refurbishment, it presents a remarkable opportunity for a buyer to create a bespoke home. With the size of the plot, the scale of the bungalow and the presence of a detached annex, there is significant potential to extend or reconfigure (subject to necessary consents). Location Set on the outskirts of Lyminge, the property enjoys the best of both worlds — tranquil country living with excellent access to local amenities. The village offers a popular primary school, local shops, public house and village green, while Folkestone town centre, mainline rail services (including High Speed to London) and the Channel Tunnel are all within easy reach.
