Description
A very rare opportunity to acquire a well presented individually designed and built detached bungalow situated on a quiet no through farm lane on the edge of the sought after seaside village of Kingsdown, with the unusual benefit of a large garden and an adjoining field, in all totalling in excess of 2.5 acres.
‘Appledown’ was constructed in the early 1980’s, originally as accommodation for the vendor’s family farm. In recent years the property has been much updated and improved to create a comfortable modern home. Given its large garden and adjoining field there is ample room to extend and/or make more use of the adjoining land (subject to the usual consents). A modern easily maintained property with land in such a lovely yet accessible location on the edge of a sought after seaside village and with easy access into neighbouring towns is a rare combination for which we anticipate much interest.
KINGSDOWN a former fishing village of charm and character offering a range of leisure activities. In the village there is a small selection of shops and amenities including a Newsagent/Post Office, butcher, three Public Houses (one on the beach) the Church of St Johns and a Primary School (rated outstanding by Ofsted). Recreational activities include water sports and fishing along with Walmer & Kingsdown Golf Course. A further three Champion golf courses are a short drive away including Royal St Georges in Sandwich (venue for the British Open). The historic coastal town of DEAL has a good variety of shopping and leisure facilities yet still retains much of its character as a former maritime town. DOVER, with its docks and cross-Channel services, is seven miles away, offering fast access to the Continent and fast Rail Link access to London St Pancras travelling from the nearest station at Walmer (1hr 15mins).
