The property is a 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom detached house located in Etchinghill, Folkestone, with a list price of £1,250,000. The property boasts 5,392.50 sqft of living space and sits on a 3,606.00 sqft plot.
The location is in a desirable rural area, offering tranquility and scenic views. The proximity to several well-regarded primary schools (Lyminge Church of England Primary School, Folkestone St Martin’s Church of England Primary School, Saltwood Cofe Primary School, Cheriton Primary School, and Seabrook Church of England Primary School) is a significant advantage for families. While slightly further afield, there are also several Southeastern train stations within a reasonable driving distance, providing convenient access to Folkestone and other towns.
Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in excellent condition. It is well-maintained, with modern updates blended seamlessly with traditional features. The interior is spacious and well-presented. The property benefits from a large garden and extensive grounds, offering ample outdoor space.
Given the property’s size (5,392.50 sqft), condition, location, and land size, the list price of £1,250,000 appears to be in line with, or potentially slightly above, the average price per sqft in the area (£341.00). However, the lack of comparable properties with similar sqft data in the nearby listings makes a precise price comparison difficult. The average price of nearby properties is significantly lower, suggesting this property is priced higher due to its size, condition, and desirable location. The large plot size and rural setting further justify the higher price point.
Considering all factors, this property represents a substantial investment in a desirable location with excellent amenities.
Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
