A short walk to the sea, this quaint cottage is situated in the Historic Coastal Village of Kingsdown, and a short drive from Deal.
A worker’s cottage comprising of open living/dining space, with cast iron radiators throughout. The ground floor, with its honey-coloured sanded floorboards, provides a wonderful space for relaxation, with built in bookshelves and cupboards either side of the woodburner. Traditional casement windows allow you to enjoy the birds as they feast from the lilac or majestic Beech trees to the front of the property. From the dining area, you will find the galley kitchen, with flagstone tiled floor and underfloor heating. A small utility area beyond the kitchen accommodates the boiler (controlled by Nest thermostat to enable remote control of the heating system) and dishwasher. The bathroom with full-sized bath with over-bath shower has a traditional styled dual heated towel rail (gas and electric).
Painted open stairs, with bespoke steel handrail leads you to a landing off which are two bedrooms, (both with built in wardrobe spaces), the rear double bedroom with views over the village valley, and the front bedroom has a sea glimpse from the bed by the window. From the small landing, a removable Mezzanine style ladder staircase allows easy access to a large loft space, (currently used as storage and double office) with velux windows to front with a sideways view to the sea and rear windows with a long view over the village.
The cottage garden, (with side access) has been lovingly curated by its current owners. It is accessed directly from the living/dining room area. It benefits from a sunny south facing aspect, and hosts two fruiting cherry trees, a cherry plum tree and ornamental cherry with stunning blooms in the early spring, and numerous roses and other plants of seasonal interest throughout. The grounds also comfortably house a woodstore, bikeshed and to the bottom of the garden a potting area with garden shed.

In 1968, “Middle Street” was the first Conservation Area in Kent, its quaint streets and houses a reminder of its history along with many ancient buildings and monuments including, most notably, Deal and Walmer Castles . Today it is a seaside resort with its award-winning High Street, high-speed train Links to St Pancras and independent shops.
