Detailed Description
Description
This attractive detached house is situated on the hillside, just north of the town and offers comfortably proportioned accommodation. The property has been in the hands of the same family for many years and whilst appearing to have been generally well maintained it is fair to say that it would now benefit from some general updating but is considered well worthy of any expenditure required.
The accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall, sitting room with doors opening to a covered veranda which overlooks the garden and has views across Hythe and of the sea in the distance, a generous dining room, kitchen/breakfast room and beyond this there is a rear lobby and cloakroom. The first floor comprises three double bedrooms, bathroom and separate cloakroom.
The gardens are a particularly attractive feature of the property with wide expanses of terrace and lawns. There is a driveway to the front providing off road parking.
For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.
