LOCATION

Bassett Gardens is situated on the hillside to the north-east of the ancient Cinque Ports Town of Hythe and is approximately a mile from the busy High Street, 3 supermarkets (including Waitrose), range of independent shops and restaurants, together with a variety of sports and leisure facilities, including 2 golf courses (one only a short walk away) and the Hotel Imperial Leisure Centre.   The open countryside is accessible for walkers adjacent to the property.  There are a number of clubs and societies in the town for anyone who likes to be involved in the community and a twice-monthly farmers’ market with a selection of local produce.

The area is fortunate in having particularly good communications as there is a main line railway station and access points for the M20 motorway (Junctions 11 and 12) only 2 miles away, making it possible to reach Central London within about 1½ hours by both road and rail.   In addition, there will be a new high speed rail link (50 minutes) to St Pancras in 2009.  The Channel Tunnel Terminal entrance, with regular shuttle services to the Continent, is only just over a mile away and Ashford International Passenger Terminal with regular Eurostar services to Paris & Brussels (both 2 hours) is only 20 minutes by car.   The ferry port of Dover is 12 miles away.   (All distances are approximate) 

DESCRIPTION

Built in the 1970s, this substantial detached house provides excellent family accommodation within the main house and the spacious, self-contained annexe could be useful for elderly relatives, or to let out for additional income.  The present owners have updated the main kitchen and sanitary fittings are white throughout and the property is considered to be in good decorative order. 

There is parking for several cars on the driveway at the front and the rear garden is south facing and secluded.  The annexe has a separate area of terrace and garden.
