3 Dixwell Road is a substantial period property, extending to over 4,500 sq ft, with a collection of large, elegant rooms arranged over three light-filled floors. The house has been comprehensively restored by the current vendors who have enhanced and retained the period character, whilst incorporating stylish, relaxed spaces.

Set in grounds of half an acre, with high levels of privacy, plentiful sash and bay windows connect the house to its beautiful surroundings, imbuing a great sense of calm and a tranquillity befitting of a more rural location. The sea, promenade, town and train station (with High Speed service to London St Pancras) are all within easy reach.

The grand arched entrance doorway opens to an airy reception hall with a turned stairway and cloakroom. The hallway flows into an abundance of adaptable, high-ceilinged and sash windowed rooms with an assortment of charming feature fireplaces. The 32 ft drawing room is exceptional, having bespoke built-in cabinets and an impressive curved bay overlooking the gardens; alongside is the sitting room opening to the westerly aspect. Further on there is a TV room with fitted furniture, and a peaceful home office.

The sociable kitchen and dining room occupies a 19 ft space with a walk-in bay and door to the rear terrace. The kitchen features a range of stylish modern cabinetry, work surfaces and appliances, including a range stove. The dining area has ample space for a large table. Completing the ground floor is a scullery, utility, boiler room and a useful shower room. The rear hall leads through to the attached garage.

Along with a study/hobby room and a store room, the first floor is home to four well-proportioned and bright bedrooms with fine features, including the bay-windowed principal with its adjoining dressing room. There is a family bathroom with a freestanding rolltop bath and separate cloakroom.

On the second floor there is an additional store room and three further bedrooms, well served by an additional modern shower room and family bathroom.

The property sits in a well-established, part walled private plot within its sought-after postcode, surrounded by tall trees, shrubs and neatly trimmed dividing hedges. A driveway leads to the attached garage, with a pathway flanked by level lawn leading to the main entrance.

The rear garden enjoys a westerly aspect and comprises further expanses of level formal lawn with a pretty paved terrace for dining, an ornamental pond and a variety of colourful planting schemes.

The desirable West End is within easy reach of the Leas, coastal paths and eclectic Sandgate village, with its range of shops and eateries. Folkestone itself, with its burgeoning Arts scene, together with Hythe provide comprehensive amenities and services, including outstanding schooling.

The M20 gives excellent road access, whilst Folkestone West offers High-Speed links to London and Ashford International. The Channel Tunnel provides regular services to the Continent.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 13, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
