KEY FEATURES
SUMMARY
Lovingly extended and renovated by the current vendor, this once small period bungalow now offers generous, versatile accommodation with all the comforts expected for modern living. The hub of this home is the surprisingly large kitchen / breakfast room which is open to both the vaulted sitting room, where there is a wood burning stove, and the light, bright dining room, making this an incredibly sociable, flexible living space. The ground floor also has the added bonus of a double bedroom with en-suite and linked snug area, which would be ideal for those needing to live predominantly on one level or requiring dual-occupancy. In addition, there is a study which would be ideal as a home office, large utility / boot room, cloakroom and three upstairs double bedrooms which are served by a luxury family bathroom. This property also benefits from a driveway providing ample parking, a two bay cart lodge style garage, garden and patio with hot tub, which is the perfect place to unwind and take in the glorious marsh views. The bustling towns of Rye and Tenterden are 8 miles distant by car and offer a wide selection of amenities, and for those who need to travel further afield, Appledore station, with its links to Ashford and the speed rail link to St Pancras, is just over half a mile.

Cuisine master Range oven with extractor above. Integrated dishwasher. The island unit has a granite worktop and additional storage under.
Sitting Room
As you walk into the sitting room, with its beautiful vaulted ceiling and wood burning stove, you really get a "wow" factor. Although the two large windows bring in lots of natural light, you can also imagine cosying up in front of the fire with the curtains closed on a cold winter night. Floor to ceiling beams divide this room from the dining room beyond.
