Description

CASH BUYERS ONLY!

Nestled discreetly at the end of a private road, this unique property offers a rare opportunity for those seeking an expansive and versatile living or business space. Originally designed as a four-bedroom house, the property is currently utilised for business purposes, serving as a bed and breakfast, offering not only a main residence but also four additional cabins on the premises for guest accommodation.

Surrounded by a remarkably generous plot, the property boasts immense potential for those looking to create their own private retreat or capitalise on the ample space for further development opportunities. Arriving at the property, you are greeted with ample off-road parking facilities. Despite its central location, the property remains surreptitious, hidden from view, offering a sense of privacy and tranquillity that is rarely found in urban settings. Upon entering you are greeted by damson, pear, cherry, apple and plum trees and a delightful small pond.

The expansive layout of the property presents endless possibilities for customisation and expansion. Features such as the multiple cabins on-site and versatile living spaces provide an ideal framework for a thriving business venture alongside a family home.

The property is under commercial class and a domestic mortgage will not be feasible. There is also a covenant on the entry track which states that this is for domestic use only. The covenant on the property for domestic use only, could be changed, subject to permissions, please see link below for more information:

Location
The popular seaside town of Whitstable is situated on the stunning North Kent coast, 7 miles north of the historical city of Canterbury and less than 60 miles from central London. With its quaint alley ways, colourful high street and peaceful shingle beaches this town has a lot to offer both residents and holiday makers. For entertainment there are excellent water sport facilities, plenty of art galleries, and a wealth of independently run restaurants, boutiques and cafes to enjoy along the vibrant high street. The Crab and Winkle Way, one of the earliest passenger railways and the first ever steam-powered railway in the world, follows the disused railway line between Canterbury and Whitstable, and is now a popular walking and cycle route through woods and countryside. Road links via the A299 Thanet Way give easy access to the M2 for travel to London and beyond. Whitstable also has a main line train station providing fast and frequent links into London Victoria (1hr 30 mins) and London St Pancras (1hr 11mins).
