House For Sale £575,000
A wonderful but rare opportunity to own to own a beautiful Grade II Listed Victorian three-bedroom property with a separate established business which is currently run as a highly successful coffee shop located in the centre of the historic town of Sandwich.
A traditional styled Victorian house brimming with period features such as wood panelling, original fireplaces, refurbished sash windows and intricate architrave that flourish over the 1100sq.ft of accommodation. The character within this home has been embraced by the current owners who have lovingly renovated throughout and updated the kitchen and bathrooms to an excellent standard.
The house is currently used as a very popular holiday let and could offer an excellent investment opportunity but would equally make a wonderful home for someone who is looking for a convenient location in the heart of this medieval town.
The solid front door opens into a lovely entrance hall with an original internal door that leads into a charming sitting room. The ornate gas fireplace sits central to the chimney breast and double wooden doors open into the kitchen breakfast room.
