An unusual opportunity to purchase an individually designed and built mid century detached house, situated in a superb location just a stones throw from of the beach in the sought after village of Kingsdown. Believed to have been built in the 1960’s ‘Pebbles End’ has recently undergone a sensitive makeover and series of improvements to bring it in to the 21st Century, yet retaining its 1960’s feel.
The accommodation is arranged ‘upside down’ with the lounge and kitchen/breakfast room on the upper floor to maximise on the view down Oldstairs road to the Channel and over the garden to the neighbouring field. On the ground floor is the entrance hall, 3 bedrooms, study/5th bedroom, a guest sitting room, utility area and bathroom.
The house was built in the garden of one of the older neighbouring houses and still retains some interesting features. Double gates open to a driveway/parking area for 3-4 cars leading to a block of 3 garages. There is potential to demolish the garages and possibly obtain planning approval to build another property (subject to usual consents).
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 John’s and a Primary School (rated outstanding by Ofsted). Recreational activities include water sports and fishing along with Walmer & Kingsdown Golf Course. A further three champion golf courses are a short drive away including Royal St Georges in Sandwich (venue for the British Open). The historic coastal town of DEAL has a good variety of shopping and leisure facilities including a Summer Festival of Music and the Arts 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 the nearest station at Walmer (1hour 15minutes).
