What the Owner says:
We moved here as we wanted a family home near the centre of town with easy access to the seafront. The property was in a dilapidated state when we bought it, so we gutted it from top to bottom, replacing all the electrics, heating and plumbing, fully redecorated and created a new kitchen and bathrooms. We installed hardwood double glazed sash windows and shutters, as we wanted to keep the original style.
The location is ideal as we are in a cul-de-sac, so it's very quiet and safe for the children. We love being able to walk to all of Folkestone's restaurants and bars and can be on the beach in a matter of minutes. Between the Leas, the Harbour Arm, Folkestone Music Town and the Folkestone Triennial outdoor art exhibition, there are always free events throughout the year. It's a wonderful, creative town filled with interesting shops, places and people. A bonus of living here is how close we are to Europe. As well as being able to see the French coast from our house, we can be at Le Shuttle in 15 minutes and in France in another 35 minutes.
From Folkestone Central station it is an easy commute to London with St Pancras under an hour away. The town also has excellent state schools including the Outstanding St Eanswythe primary school, which is under 5 minutes walking distance of the house. There are also two very good grammar schools with the Harvey Grammar also being rated Outstanding by Ofsted.
