DESCRIPTION
An enchanting period cottage in a delightfully secluded position within a sought after location on Sandgate's pretty hillside. The property was refurbished before the current owner purchased it, including a skilfully executed attic conversion to provide a third bedroom and en-suite shower room, so everything appears to be in pretty good order. The current owner has subsequently added solar panels further enhancing the appeal of the property.

The comfortably proportioned accommodation retains some lovely original features and is of particularly comfortable proportions. This includes a storm porch opening to the entrance hall which leads to two inviting reception rooms, the sitting room to the front and dining room to the rear which in turn leads to a sun room and the generously sized kitchen. On the second floor are two bedrooms, a bathroom and separate w.c., with the third bedroom on the second floor with en-suite shower room.

Outside there is a rear access, shallow garden to the front alongside the footpath leading to the house opposite which is a very private cottage garden providing a haven of peace and tranquillity for alfresco relaxation, No. 5 is the only property to enjoy this unique feature on the terrace. There is also the added advantage of unofficial parking space on Wellington Place, a private cul-de-sac.

For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.

SITUATION
Tucked away in a secluded spot towards the end of a pretty pedestrian lane, the property is just moments from Sandgate Esplanade. A short stroll via Brewers Hill - perhaps with a pause at the iconic Clarendon Inn - leads to the beachfront promenade and the heart of Sandgate village, where you'll find an eclectic variety of independent boutiques, inviting pubs, artisan cafés, restaurants, and a thriving rowing club.
Enjoy coastal walks along The Leas toward Folkestone Harbour, home to the vibrant Harbour Arm - a regenerated hotspot with champagne bars, eateries, and live music - and explore the Creative Quarter with its buzzing café culture and arts scene. For breathtaking Channel views, The Leas clifftop promenade is just moments away.
Hythe, with a broader range of amenities, including a Waitrose, lies 3 miles west, while Folkestone is just 2 miles east. The area offers excellent leisure facilities, including sailing and rowing clubs, multiple golf courses, and the Imperial Hotel Leisure Centre.
Commuters enjoy excellent connectivity, with High Speed trains to London St Pancras from Folkestone West (1 mile) and Ashford International (16 miles), plus easy access to the M20 and Channel Tunnel - just 35 minutes to Calais.
