Property description

For anyone looking for an impressive property with all the character of a bygone era but with the ultimate convenience of contemporary 21st-century living, this property ticks all the boxes. Built in the Hugenot-style with attractive Dutch gables, it was constructed from reclaimed bricks and Kent peg tiles. Hidden away in a quiet and charming enclave off Church Street in Walmer, this lovely house makes an ideal family home. From the moment you see the front garden leading to the attractive porch and antique door you will be impatient to cross the threshold to view the interior. The spacious entrance hall with its black and white tiles provides a delightful welcome. The light and bright office/sitting room just inside the front door and adjacent to the cloakroom makes it ideal if you work from home. The elegant drawing room with its stone fireplace, multi-fuel stove and bi-folding doors to the raised terrace provides a relaxing space for both family life and for entertaining. The hub of this beautifully proportioned property is the open-plan, L-shaped kitchen/dining room. It incorporates a bespoke Stelline kitchen with a range of integrated Neff appliances such as fan and combi ovens, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and a central island with a gas hob and breakfast bar as well as bi-folding doors to the patio and a large dining area where family and guests can also get together. The adjacent utility room has fitted units, another double oven available for enthusiastic chefs, built-in fridge-freezer, space for washing appliances and further storage area. Upstairs, there is a spacious landing leading to four double bedrooms. These include the master with en suite facilities and plenty of wardrobes, a guest room with another en suite, a separate walk-in wardrobe and a very trendy family bathroom with twin hand basins, a large wet-room style shower and a French bath. On the second floor you will find a great kids’ playroom area, a ‘hideaway’ for teenagers looking for a little privacy or even an exercise room, while outside there is a separate garage and plenty of space on the block-paved driveway for off-road parking.

What the Owner says:

We have loved our time here. The position is excellent and it is very quiet and safe for children but, at the same time, we can pop through the back gate to the parade of local shops that includes a post office, butcher, baker, micro-pub and convenience store. The spacious layout creates a wonderful family home with an open-plan ambience as well as somewhere for entertaining. For example, you can have a drinks party in the hall and then wander through either to the dining area or to the lounge where you can sit in front of the fire on a winter’s night and on sunny days stroll outside onto the large terrace. Here, you can enjoy al fresco dining while looking across the delightful secluded original walled garden with its large lawn, mature shrubs and pretty summer house. The seafront is only a short distance and we love being near both the coast and the countryside. At the same time, we are ideally situated for Canterbury and Sandwich and close to the lovely town of Deal with its individual shops, weekly market and restaurants. Dover and Folkestone are easily accessible for trips to the Continent and we can be in St. Pancras in an hour and 20 mins from Walmer mainline station.
