This five-bedroom house is tucked away down a private part-made lane on the edge of a sought-after village. In an elevated spot, it has a lovely outlook across its own gardens and the rolling landscape over Walmer and Kingsdown Golf Club.

The house dates back to the 1920s and in recent years has been the subject of sympathetic refurbishment. It has retained much of its original charm and character and this is now complemented by modern fittings, including a stunning handmade fitted kitchen.

A central front path leads to the entrance porch, with inner hall beyond, from which the sitting and dining rooms are accessed. Beyond here the kitchen/breakfast room with its bespoke designer kitchen, with granite worktops and a central island.

Integrated and fitted appliances include a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, wine cooler and Aga with six-ring gas hob and varied functioning electric ovens and grill.

An arch from here leads to the family room/snug and at the back is the utility room and cloakroom.

Upstairs, all rooms lead off the split-level landing. Three rooms are at the front including bedroom five which is currently used as a study, and has far reaching views.

A large bedroom is at the back and has an en-suite with shower. The fifth bedroom is at the side.

The family bathroom is large and has a separate shower cubicle as well as a bath. There is also a bidet.

To the far left of the house, a large garage has been built, together with a large gravelled parking area.

The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped. They are principally laid to lawns, well-stocked beds, shrubs and trees. The lawns are interspersed with paths with a large paved terrace adjacent to the back of the house.

There is an attractive summerhouse to one corner of the back garden.

Kingsdown has a general store, post office, butcher, three pubs, church and primary school. Deal is three miles away.
