Folkestone and Hawkinge Estate Agents Your Key Move are thrilled to bring to market this beautiful late Victorian 6 Bedroom family home in the sought after Broadmead road in Folkestone.
This is a fantastic opportunity to purchase a late Victorian six-bedroom house in an enviable location just minutes walk from Folkestone Central train station with high-speed access to London in under an hour. The property is beautifully presented throughout with period features, a huge open-plan living space, a wonderful large kitchen/breakfast room, and a private rear garden featuring a World War I bunker which would be perfect for renovation. There is potential with this property to further extend either out the back or into the loft space.
Let me take you through what this property has to offer internally.
Walking through the stained glass front door, you will straightaway realize that this is no ordinary property. You'll see on the wooden stairs that the carpet is held in place with the most wonderful cast iron grips which were symbolic of the year that this house was built. A left-hand door will take you into the lovely open-plan lounge dining room with tall ceilings and the most wonderful period skirting and coving. The lounge also features some fantastic bay windows and a working Charnwood woodburner (installed in 2012 and regularly maintained) in all its splendor. At the far end in the dining room, there are patio doors leading out into the private rear garden. Underneath the stairs in the hallway, there's a handy downstairs cloakroom. Moving past this, you go into the superb modern kitchen featuring wooden worktops, beautiful tiling, matt finished units, integrated appliances, and even a wine cooler. There is a large space for a great family table for meal times which makes this room a superbly sociable setting. Again patio doors lead into the south facing rear garden.
In the south facing rear garden the flooring is paved with York stone which leads from both the dining room and the kitchen to the lawn area. It's here that there are stairs which are currently covered but lead down to a World War I bunker. This could create an absolutely wonderful project for the new owner.
Back inside the house and up onto the first level, you have the absolutely massive master bedroom featuring another one of those period fireplaces, the second bedroom with another period fireplace, a magnificent tiled family bathroom with double walk-in shower, and a third bedroom on this level.
The landing area provides a great storage place for books or even for a small desk. Moving up to the third level, you have a further three bedrooms with another tall bathroom, this time featuring a bath and fitted power shower. Once again there is a handy landing area for storage and loft access where you could look at extending or simply use for that very handy storage that any family requires.

From a location perspective, Broadmead road is situated down a nice residential street with easy access to the town centre and the beautiful Radnor Park. The property is positioned within a minutes walk to Folkestone Central train station (with direct high-speed rail links to London St Pancras in under an hour). The famous Leas Promenade with coastal paths leading to the beach is but a ten minute walk away, with Sandgate village to the west (with its run of eclectic shops, bars, and restaurants) and Folkestone to the east (with its regenerated Harbour Arm and Creative Quarter). As well as the close proximity of Folkestone Central station, nearby transport links include the Eurotunnel, the M20 and Dover Ferry Port.
If you are searching for a large and very well presented family home with easy access to Folkestone central train station and within walking distance of Folkestone town centre, this house will most definitely be on your short list.
