DESCRIPTION

An end of terrace cottage.  Extended and improved to make an interesting and characterful home situated within the conservation area in the sought-after seaside village of Kingsdown.

The accommodation comprises a sitting room, lounge and a conservatory. From the lounge an arch and steps lead down to a kitchen/breakfast room (with vaulted ceiling), fitted with a range of Shaker style cabinets with built in appliances, beyond is a rear lobby/utility area and bathroom.  On the first floor are 2 bedrooms with an attic bedroom above.

To the front is a paved seating area with a gate leading to a side garden mainly paved with a garden room and store room (below the conservatory).  To the rear is a small courtyard garden.

KINGSDOWN is a former fishing village of charm and character and offers a range of leisure activities.  In the village there is a small selection of shops and amenities including a Newsagent/Post Office, Butcher, three Public Houses, the Church of St Johns and a Primary School (rated outstanding by Ofsted).  Recreational activities include water sports and fishing along with the Kingsdown Golf Course.  The historic coastal town of DEAL has a good variety of shopping and leisure facilities yet still retains much of its character as a former maritime town.  DOVER, with its docks and cross-Channel services, is seven miles away, offering fast access to the Continent and fast Rail Link access to London St Pancras travelling from nearby Walmer (approx.2.5 miles) takes just 1hr 20mins.  There is also a fast train service from Deal.
