A well-presented individually designed and built detached house situated in a lovely location with superb views over the South Foreland Valley and clifftops to the Channel beyond.
Believed to have been built in the 1960’s, the property was the subject of substantial alterations completed around 2012 when it was remodelled and extended to take full advantage of its location and views. Sea View Road is a quiet road which links up to a network of lovely walks over the famous White Cliffs and down to the bay.
The accommodation comprises impressive dining hall with glazed double doors leading into the kitchen/dining room and giving a lovely view through over the valley to the Channel. Kitchen/dining room with doors onto the rear garden. Lounge with floor to ceiling windows giving a panoramic view. Two double bedrooms and bathroom at ground floor level, two first floor double bedrooms (one with en-suite shower room) and on the lower ground floor is a utility room, cloakroom and studio/bedroom 5.
Outside a block paved driveway/parking for 2-3 vehicles leads to a good-sized single garage with electric door. The property sits on a corner plot with attractive well-maintained gardens to the front and side, mainly lawn with plant/shrub borders. To the rear is a large sun terrace and an ‘Mediterranean’ style gravel garden. Small greenhouse and lower paved sun terrace accessed from the studio room.
The village of St Margaret’s at Cliffe offers local shopping, post office, doctor’s surgery with pharmacy, newsagent/general store, primary school (Ofsted rated as ‘outstanding’), churches and two riding stables, whilst The Bay itself is sheltered for bathing, fishing, sailing etc. The cliff top to either side of The Bay is mainly in the care of the National Trust and offers some delightful walks. There are golf courses at nearby Kingsdown and Deal with St George’s at Sandwich (venue of the British Open). The nearby seaside town of Deal offers a good range of small boutique style shops, a Saturday market and a selection of restaurants, bars and pubs.
