Athelstan Green, Hollingbourne, Maidstone, ME17 1UX

Tucked away within a peaceful cul-de-sac of Hollingbourne, this spacious four-bedroom detached bungalow comes to the market for the first time in approximately 60 years. Offered with no onward chain, it combines generous proportions with a flexible layout and presents a significant opportunity for its next owners to renovate and create a home entirely suited to them.

Athelstan Green has been maintained throughout its long ownership and provides a wonderful foundation for thoughtful updating. Extending to approximately 1,824 sq ft, the single-storey layout offers plenty of space for family life and could work particularly well for multigenerational living.

The large, triple-aspect living room has three large windows, bringing plenty of natural light into the space. An original fireplace creates an attractive focal point and retains a sense of the home’s 1960s character.

The kitchen and dining room form a connected split-level space, with three steps leading from the dining area into the kitchen. This creates an open-plan feel which is highly desirable for modern living. From here, there is direct access to the garden, while a separate utility room provides valuable additional storage and everyday practicality.

The bedroom layout offers a useful sense of separation. Set to the left of the entrance, the master bedroom was added as an extension more recently in the property’s history. Large windows fill the room with natural light, while an en-suite shower room gives it privacy from the remainder of the bungalow.

To the right of the entrance are two further double bedrooms and a single bedroom, currently arranged as a home office. A generous family bathroom and separate WC serve this part of the home.

Outside, the north-east-facing garden combines a patio with an established lawn. Views across Hollingbourne and the surrounding countryside create an attractive backdrop, while a summer house provides additional garden storage or the potential for future use.

To the front, a long driveway provides parking for at least three vehicles, with the potential to accommodate more and leads to the attached garage.

The property is freehold and connected to mains services. It benefits from gas central heating and full-fibre broadband, it is Council Tax Band F and has an EPC Rating D.

Life in Hollingbourne brings together a strong village community and easy access to the Kent countryside. The North Downs Way and Pilgrims’ Way provide beautiful local walking routes, while the Hollingbourne Meadows Trust protects and cares for an important area of open space for the village some of which can be enjoyed by the local residents and visitors alike.

Local places to enjoy include Penn Oast Vineyard, three village pubs and the Station Community Café, while families are well served by Hollingbourne Church of England Primary School, a local nursery and the village playground. Hollingbourne also has its own osteopath and the railway station provides connections towards Maidstone, Ashford and London. The nearby M20 makes travelling across Kent and the wider South East straightforward.

With its generous rooms, adaptable layout, established garden and plentiful parking, this is a rare opportunity to renovate a substantial bungalow and shape its next chapter, all within one of Kent’s most sought-after villages.
