Mapps Estates are delighted to bring to the market this immaculately presented three bedroom detached residence located within level walking distance of Dymchurch high street and the beach and enjoying far-reaching countryside views. Originally thought to date back to the 1920s, the property has since been sympathetically extended and remodelled over the years and now presents an enviable family home, successfully blending modern fixtures such as a contemporary fitted kitchen, family bathroom and en suite shower room with much of the original period character and charm. The ground floor accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall, cloakroom, a dining room with log burner and French doors to the recently-added side extension, a spacious yet homely living room with an additional log burner, a modern sun room opening to the rear garden, a study, and a recently-fitted 'Howdens' kitchen/breakfast room with quartz worktops and a feature Aga Rayburn stove. Upstairs you will find three double bedrooms, the master suite enjoying a vaulted ceiling, walk-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room; there is also a generous family bathroom with both a bath and a large shower cubicle. The current owners have also had built a large timber outbuilding to the rear garden incorporating a workshop, a garden room with an infra-red sauna and bar, and a covered hot tub. The garden is attractively landscaped and enjoys two sun terraces. To the front there is a gated driveway for three cars as well as a timber carport and log store. An early viewing comes highly recommended to fully appreciate all this unique and desirable family home has to offer.
Located to the eastern side of Dymchurch and within level walking distance of Dymchurch's sandy beaches and high street. The sea wall offers a pleasant walk into the village centre which has a small selection of local shops together with a Tesco mini-store, primary school, doctors' surgery and Village Hall. Secondary schools are available in both New Romney and nearby Saltwood and both boys' and girls' grammar schools in Folkestone. The M20 Motorway, Channel Tunnel Terminal and Port of Dover are all easily accessed by car. High Speed Rail Services to London St Pancras are available from Folkestone West station (approximately 50 minutes' travelling time) and Ashford International (less than 40 minutes' travelling time).
