    A Truly Unique Detached Bungalow in a Highly Desirable Village Setting, Never Before Featured on the Open Market

    Tucked away in a quiet and secluded position along a private road in the ever-popular village of River, this exceptional four-bedroom detached bungalow presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious and versatile home that has never before been offered for sale on the open market.

    Occupying a substantial and private plot, the property enjoys an enviable setting surrounded by beautifully established gardens and offers tremendous potential for further extension, subject to the necessary planning consents.

    From the moment you arrive, the home's sense of privacy, space and exclusivity is immediately apparent. The property benefits from two separate driveways providing parking for six or more vehicles, alongside a detached double garage and an additional single garage, making it ideal for families, car enthusiasts or those requiring workshop and storage space.

    Internally, the bungalow is exceptionally spacious throughout, with high ceilings and generously proportioned rooms creating a wonderful feeling of light and openness. The accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to provide distinct living and sleeping areas, perfectly suited to modern family life.

    All four bedrooms are comfortable doubles. The principal bedroom enjoys built-in storage together with its own en-suite bathroom, providing a private retreat away from the main living accommodation.

    The living space is equally impressive, centred around an extra-large main reception room featuring an attractive fireplace that serves as a focal point and creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

    Additional reception rooms include a separate dining room/conservatory and well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room.

    To the rear, a utility room and additional storage room/second utility room provide additional flexibility and practicality.

    The recently refurbished family bathroom will be the perfect spot to relax and features a walk-in shower alongside a separate bath, perfectly catering to both busy family life and relaxing evenings at home.

    Externally, the property truly comes into its own. The extensive wrap-around gardens offer an exceptional level of privacy and feature multiple lawned areas, mature trees, established shrubbery and three separate patio spaces, providing numerous options for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. There is also potential for a separate gated vegetable plot, ideal for keen gardeners looking to create their own productive outdoor space.

    To the side of the bungalow, a delightful tiered garden area provides an elevated vantage point, perfect for taking in the surrounding outlook and enjoying spectacular views of local firework displays throughout the year.

    River continues to be one of Dover's most sought-after villages, renowned for its strong sense of community and excellent local amenities. Within easy walking distance are a highly regarded primary school, Co-op convenience store, pharmacy, post office, public houses and takeaways. The stunning Alkham Valley and surrounding countryside are also close by, offering wonderful opportunities for walking, cycling and outdoor recreation.

    Excellent road connections provide swift access to the A2, M2 and M20, while nearby Kearsney railway station offers regular services to Canterbury East and London Victoria, making this an ideal location for commuters and families alike.

    Properties of this nature, offering such a unique combination of privacy, extensive gardens, generous accommodation, multiple garages, ample parking and village convenience, rarely come to the market, particularly when they have remained within the same ownership and never previously been exposed to the open market.

    Early viewing is highly recommended.
