Property description
This stunning Grade II listed building is one of the most outstanding landmarks in Folkestone and takes you back to a bygone era where architecture had style, grace and sophistication.
Situated along The Leas, in Folkestone's ever popular West End, where cliff top views look out over the English Channel and of an evening the street lights in France can be seen twinkling, the location is nothing short of seductive. Furthermore, with its imposing facade, which is complimented by the lobby, function rooms and even communal hallways, the opulence, grandeur and elegance is clear to see and all before you even enter the flat. As far as the Victorians were concerned, aesthetics were everything; high ceilings, deep skirting boards, picture rails and comfortably sized rooms help highlight this and can all be found here. The lounge/diner centres around the fireplace where entertaining will take centre stage ensuring you are the envy of all your friends and family, and with a Juliette balcony, an element of romance will have you dreaming of being serenaded; on the subject of dreaming, the main bedroom almost guarantees a sound night's sleep and you wake up to a view of the sea.
An attractive, well stacked and practical kitchen will keep the chef of the abode well and truly catered for in a building that quite simply will be a pleasure to live in as you become its next custodian.
What the Owner says:
You just have to take one look at The Grand to understand what attracted me; inside and out it looks outstanding.
Being an author, living in an environment that allows my creative side to flourish makes the day job a pleasure. The Grand is one of those places and when I feel like a break, whether it be for a well earned drink or a bite to eat, Keppels Bistro and Wine Bar is where I head, just downstairs.
My balcony, although small, is a great place to perch when I need a breath of fresh air, and with views over Terlingham Gardens along The Leas and out over the English Channel, it never loses its charm.
