What struck me most when I first visited this home was the width of the plot (facing south) and the obvious potential for further extension. Greg Wood, Ashford Homes

#TheGardenOfEngland

A 1960's detached family home, located in a highly sought after location close to the town centre, extended to the rear and providing tremendous potential for further extension if required, with a south-facing rear garden and being sold with no onward chain.

Position:
Albert Road is located in the centre of Ashford and represents a secluded and quiet residential area that is highly convenient for amenities and transport links. Albert Road predominantly comprises larger Victorian homes with good sized gardens. Thanks to the conservation area status, the character in the road will be protected and enhanced for years to come and has helped make this one of the most highly regarded locations in Ashford.

Description
Having benefitted from an overhaul in 2006, when the electrics and heating hardware were updated and replaced, and then a further revamp this year seeing redecoration throughout, this home is suitable for immediate occupation. The floor plan should be studied to appreciate the extent of the ground floor accommodation on offer, as this wraps around the original footprint of the house. Ideal for muddy kids to kick their boots off, or alternatively those dog lovers out there, there is a covered passageway between the kitchen and the garage that leads through to the rear garden.
The living room is of generous proportion and still retains the serving hatch to the kitchen, a date stamp to its architectural heritage that I for one would certainly keep. In this room, there is a gas fire and then access to the garden room that is also heated on the main GCH system.

Outside
The garden to the rear has recently benefitted from significant investment, levelling out former undulations and then re-turfing the entire lawn – with not a weed in sight! The borders are fenced on two sides, with an attractive brick wall to the right hand side. There is a relatively new range of shrubs and plants to the far boundary, that will of course mature in the coming years to provide further seclusion. Facing south, this garden is a real sun trap and the patio appears plenty big enough for entertaining and BBQ’s as required.
To the front there is off street parking for one car, but with potential for adaption to provide additional parking if required. On street parking is sensibly restricted to permit holders only and these permits can be purchased annually from the local Council for circa £40. Books of visitor parking permits are available at the equivalent cost of £1 per day.
