5 bedroom detached house for sale

An enchanting 1930's detached home with a self contained annexe, set back from the road and occupying a large garden plot with an excellent degree of privacy.
The property has tremendous charm from the moment you step through the garden gate and approach the property. An original timber front door with stained glass opens into an inviting entrance hall where the aroma of an open fire provides the most homely welcome. Original parquet flooring is found here and continues through to both reception rooms. The bright lounge has a large bay window with a pleasant view of the south facing garden whilst an open fire brings a lovely sense of cosiness to this generously sized room.
A conservatory leads off the lounge where three sets of French doors open from each side, creating a fantastic open space during the warmer months.
A country style kitchen/breakfast room and a downstairs WC concludes the ground floor of the main house.
The first floor presents a stunning landing with a clear Art Deco influence with its curved balustrade and large picture window. Four bedrooms are found up here with the Master Bedroom featuring an en-suite and and a wonderfully bright dual aspect.
The garage was professionally converted a few years ago to create a self contained annexe which has been architecturally designed. With its own private access from the driveway, this well equipped annexe is perfect for an elderly family member or adult child seeking independence or may need prove to be a lucrative holiday let. The bedroom is currently divided into two rooms by a stud partition and this creates a second bedroom for a small child but can be reverted back with ease.
A sunny and established garden encompasses the house, allowing plenty of room for children to run around and more than enough for the adults to entertain from.
The location of the property adds to its allure, being within a highly desirable setting on the outskirts of Herne Bay. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to the Downs, just a leisurely stroll away and offering scenic views with direct access to the beach.
