SITUATED in a sought-after location within level walking distance of the seafront promenade, the Royal Military Canal and Hythe's town centre, which offers a good range of independent shops together with Waitrose, Aldi and Sainsbury's stores. The town centre also offers doctors' surgeries, dentist and library. The M20 Motorway, Channel Tunnel Terminal and Port of Dover are also easily accessed by car. High Speed Rail Services are available from Folkestone West (approximately 15 minutes by car) offering services to St. Pancras, London in just over fifty minutes. The area is also well serviced by golf courses including the Hythe Imperial, Sene Valley and Etchinghill.
A four bedroom detached period residence ideally located in a sought-after street in central Hythe between the high street and the seafront and enjoying a generous garden, garage and off-street parking. The property is thought to date back to the 1930s and, while now in need of updating, is considered well worthy of the expenditure required. The accommodation comprises a kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom, dining room, sitting room and sun room to the ground floor, while upstairs are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The south-facing rear garden boasts a weeping willow, two fig trees, a brick-built outbuilding and sits adjacent to Ladies' Walk; the detached garage to the side of the property is accessed via a gated drive. Properties such as this come rarely to the market in Hythe, so an early viewing is considered essential to fully appreciate the potential this family home presents.
