Property Description
Dolphins Road, Folkestone, Kent, CT19 5PN £410,000 | CHAIN FREE CHAIN FREE | EXTENDED THREE BEDROOM FAMILY HOME | APPROX. 1,392 SQ FT | THREE RECEPTION AREAS | ATTACHED GARAGE | LARGE SUNNY REAR GARDEN | EXCELLENT POTENTIAL TO UPDATE & PERSONALISE | LARGE UTILITY ROOM | GREENHOUSE & FRUIT TREE | EPC D | COUNCIL TAX BAND D | £410,000 FOR A PROMPT SALE Your Key Move is delighted to bring to the market this much-loved and extended three-bedroom family home in Dolphins Road, Folkestone, offered CHAIN FREE at £410,000. Having been cherished by the same family, this is a home with a real sense of history and warmth. While the property would now benefit from updating and modernisation, it has clearly been cared for over the years and provides a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to sympathetically enhance the accommodation, introduce their own style and create a home for the next chapter of its life. And there is plenty here to work with. With approximately 1,392 sq ft (129.3 sq m) of accommodation, including the attached garage, the property has already been extended and offers a surprisingly generous and versatile layout, complemented by a particularly attractive large rear garden which enjoys sunshine throughout the day. Inside The Home Step through the entrance porch and into the hallway, from where the ground-floor accommodation begins to unfold. To the front is a generous reception room measuring approximately 14'5" x 13'3", featuring a bay window which brings plenty of natural light into the room. Beyond this is a separate dining room measuring approximately 13'3" x 12'2", providing another excellent reception space and demonstrating just how versatile the ground floor of this home could be. Towards the rear is a further lounge measuring approximately 11'0" x 10'0", overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen measures approximately 10'0" x 8'0" and leads through to a separate breakfast room measuring approximately 9'6" x 8'0". For buyers looking to undertake improvements, this part of the house offers particularly interesting possibilities for reconfiguration, subject of course to any necessary consents and professional advice. The extended accommodation continues with a substantial utility room measuring approximately 15'9" x 7'4", providing extremely useful additional space and direct access to the garden. There is also an attached garage measuring approximately 18'10" x 8'2", together with a useful ground-floor storage cupboard. Upstairs The first floor provides three bedrooms and the family bathroom. Two of the bedrooms are particularly generous doubles, measuring approximately 14'5" x 11'0" and 12'2" x 11'0", while the third bedroom measures approximately 8'11" x 8'0". The family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation. Again, the appeal here is the opportunity. Rather than paying a premium for somebody else's choice of finishes, the next owner has the chance to update the property gradually and create something entirely their own, while retaining the character and proportions of this established family home. A Garden To Really Enjoy For us, the rear garden is another major feature of the property. It is large, established and enjoys sunshine throughout the day, offering plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining, gardening or simply enjoying the outside space. Immediately adjoining the house is a patio area, leading onto generous areas of lawn, with established planting and a greenhouse. Continue towards the far end and you will even find a fruit tree, adding to the traditional feel of what has clearly been a garden enjoyed and tended over many years. For a keen gardener, a family wanting plenty of outside space, or somebody simply looking for a garden they can make their own, there is a great deal to appreciate. A Home Ready For Its Next Chapter There is no attempt to disguise the fact that this property would benefit from modernisation. Instead, we believe that is part of what makes the opportunity so appealing. The space is already here. The extension is already here. The attached garage is already here. And, importantly, the large sunny garden is already here. What it now needs is a buyer who can see the potential and would enjoy putting their own stamp on a home that has meant a great deal to the family selling it. Offered vacant and CHAIN FREE, the property has been priced at £410,000 with a prompt sale in mind, making early viewing highly recommended.

Estimates are based on national averages. Energy uses the Q4 2026 Ofgem energy price cap for Great Britain (1 October to 31 December 2026, reviewed quarterly) applied to typical medium-household usage, then scaled for the EPC rating and number of bedrooms you select and, on a property page, for the property type given on the listing (Domovita's own assumptions, the same ones the energy estimator uses). Where a listing gives no EPC rating, the rating shown is an assumption, and the page says so. Council tax uses the 2026/27 England average Band D (gov.uk / MHCLG) spread across bands by the statutory ratios; water uses the 2026/27 national average combined bill for England and Wales (Water UK). Broadband and insurance are fixed allowances set by Domovita, not measured averages. Ground rent and service charge, where shown, are taken from the listing as supplied, not an average. Monthly figures are the annual estimate divided by 12. Actual costs vary by location, usage, and provider. For guidance only. Last reviewed 2 October 2026.
