A substantial detached house situated just a stones throw from the beach in the sought after old fishing village of Kingsdown.

Believed to have been built in the early 1900’s the house has been extended and improved over the years to create a spacious characterful family home, 4 reception rooms, modern kitchen & utility room, 6 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Boundary road is a road leading down to the beach just as you enter the village from Walmer.  It is within easy walking distance of the village shops, pubs and primary school, it also gives easy access into Walmer and Deal either by road or the pathway/cycle route along Wellington Parade.

KINGSDOWN is a former fishing village of charm and character offering 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 (one on the beach) the Church of St Johns 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 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 (1hr 15mins).
