Property description

Hidden away in a charming backwater off Church Street in Walmer, this impressive Dutch style property is a real gem. When you drive through the entrance gateway, continue down the vast brick paved forecourt and see the house for the first time you imagine you are looking at an historic building. However, this property is less than 50 years old but has all the character of an older style property – but none of the drawbacks.

For instance it has delightful multi pane sash windows but these are all double glazed and there should be no concern about possible damp issues because it has a damp proof course. Once inside the arched porch you enter a large and welcoming reception hall with its attractive staircase leading to the galleried landing. Everything has been built to a very high standard and there is parquet flooring throughout the hall and the four reception rooms. The large and elegant

Drawing room includes an attractive fireplace with a living flame effect gas fire while the cosy sitting room is just the place to curl up on a winter’s evening in front of the TV. The formal dining room is currently being used

As a billiard room but would be equally ideal as a study or office. A newly installed and very well fitted kitchen includes a walk in larder, an oven and hob, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. It is adjacent to the

Good sized breakfast room as well as an enormous utility room that is large enough for storing bicycles, push chairs, boots and to clean the dog after a muddy walk. Plenty of additional storage cupboards are scattered throughout the property. Off the spacious landing upstairs there are four double bedrooms.

The huge master bedroom includes fitted cupboards and an archway through to an en suite shower room and two of the other bedrooms also incorporate fitted bedroom furniture. A real feature of this property is the

Double Jacuzzi bath in the family bathroom and the other great surprise is the second floor where you will find a true teenager’s hideaway.

What the Owner says:

“We moved here with our young children in 1996 as we felt it would make an ideal family home. We loved the quiet and peaceful environment but at the same time we are only 50 to 100 yards from the local shops and about 200 yards away from the train station. Amazingly
enough many people do not even realise the property is actually here as it is so tucked away out of sight.
This has been a wonderful home for everyone to grow up in but as the family has flown the nest it is now time to downsize and move into something smaller. During the time we have lived here we have loved being able to enhance the property by putting in a new kitchen
and the wonderful Jacuzzi bath that not only do we enjoy – but the grandchildren think it is absolutely wonderful!
Our son really revelled in having his private space on the second floor and the variety of rooms is what is so great about the house. It provides any family with enough space so no one has to be on top of each other
all the time. The accommodation is also very flexible and the rooms can be used for a number of differing functions. At the same time it is also a wonderful house for entertaining. With the large drawing room and
reception hall you can have a party for a substantial number of guests and the garden lends itself to informal barbecues and al fresco dining,
while for true petrol heads the forecourt offers plenty of space to house a vast number of cars, boats or motor homes.
