  • Breathtaking panoramic sea views to the front

Originally built in 1910 this stunning marine residence was completely refurbished about 15 years ago to the highest standard with no expense spared and comes with a self-contained annexe. It was redesigned to include a wall of bi-fold doors and windows overlooking the sea to take full advantage of the panoramic views and the front entrance opens directly into the breath-taking open plan living space and the partially separated bespoke kitchen designed with boats in mind. Bi-fold windows extend round each side with built in banquettes and Travertine flooring that flows through the entire ground floor and onto the terrace. The sitting area includes a stone fireplace and an open fire while the kitchen with its handmade aquamarine coloured tulip wood units and walnut worktops houses a variety of appliances and includes a shark fin shaped breakfast bar. The spacious utility room has additional units and appliances as well as laundry facilities and a door from the sitting area provides access to three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. A unique aquamarine glass and walnut staircase leads to the luxurious, dual aspect main bedroom with oak flooring and bi-fold doors to the large balcony overlooking the sea that has a triple glass balustrade and FAR heaters. There is a stand-alone bath under a vaulted ceiling with an automatic closing Velux window, ‘his and hers' shower rooms, a walk-in dressing room and separate male and female fitted dressing rooms. The south facing front garden includes a terrace with a partially covered and glassed in area and a built in barbecue. The York stone path leads to the promenade gate and is flanked by two lawns surrounded by impressive shrubs. There is also a boat storage facility and a side passageway with paved steps down to the rear of the property where you will find log stores, a workshop/bike shed, access to the annexe and car parking with vehicular access from South Road.

What the Owner says:
We bought the house about 15 years ago as we love the position and used to own the five star rated bed and breakfast next door, so we know the area extremely well. We had the building completely renovated from top to bottom before we moved in including a new slate roof, new wiring and plumbing and created the unique internal design. However we feel it is now time to start a new chapter in our lives and let someone else enjoy everything we have done here. The house has been extremely well maintained and is just ready for new owners to walk straight into and if someone wants it as a holiday home it makes an excellent ‘lock up and go' property.
As well as having immediate access to the beach we are also only a minute's walk from the swimming pool, tennis club, cricket and squash club and a short stroll to Hythe town centre with its pubs, restaurants, individual shops and supermarkets. There is the Sene Valley golf club and the Hotel Imperial includes a golf course and a leisure centre, while sailors can join the Hythe Sailing club.
The are good local primary schools and two excellent grammar schools in Folkestone with top class private schools available in Ashford, Canterbury and Dover. Transport links are very good with Sandling station not far away and it is less than an hour to London on the high speed train from Folkestone West or about 35 minutes if you drive to Ashford International.
