5 Bedroom Detached  For Sale £1,350,000

DESCRIPTION
This substantial family house is enviably situated in one of Hythe's premier locations from where it commands some magnificent sea views, in particular from the second floor principal bedroom suite. This family home offers circa 3872 sq ft of versatile and beautifully presented accommodation which has been considerably enhanced by a well considered extension to the rear enabling a wonderful open plan kitchen/dining/living space which has been designed to compliment a modern lifestyle and unite the house with the garden. This relatively contemporary space blends seamlessly with the rest of house which has been fortunate enough to have retained a wealth of original details throughout including ornamental plasterwork, joinery and fireplaces.

The accommodation includes a most welcoming entrance hall leading to two large reception rooms, one with an adjoining study (used as a play room), the open plan kitchen/dining/living space with adjacent conservatory and adjoining utility room. There are also shower and cloakrooms on the ground floor. There are four bedrooms, a bathroom and cloakroom on the first floor and the second floor is occupied by the principal suite with bedroom, dressing room, en-suite bathroom and a contemporary balcony from where stunning views of the sea can be enjoyed.

The property occupies a plot totalling approximately 0.4 of an acre with a frontage of some 90 feet to the road. There are generous gardens to the front and rear which are beautifully planted and offer a great deal of seclusion. There is also a double garage and ample parking.

For room sizes please refer to the floorplan.
