3 bed Detached House
£800,000
St. George's Lees, Sandwich, Kent
Situated on sought after St. George's Lees, a few minutes' walk from Sandwich station and a short stroll from the town centre, is this delightful, detached family home. Originally built in the 1950s, it has been extensively modernised by the current owners. With off road parking for three cars, the front door is approached via a pedestrian gate and pathway flanked by a slate shingle shrub bed and a lawn. It opens into a hall with stairs to the first floor, an understairs cupboard and a very useful downstairs shower room. There is a superb triple aspect sitting room with a large bay window and log burner. Engineered grey oak flooring flows into the hall and charming dual aspect study. The focal point of this home is an open plan family space that incorporates a well-proportioned contemporary kitchen, dining room and lounge area. Exposed beams and LED spotlights adorn the ceiling. There is hard wearing LVT flooring throughout. The modern kitchen is light and airy with a full height side window and three bi-fold doors that lead to the rear terrace and garden. It includes attractive units with quartz worktops, a built in Neff combi-microwave and ‘slide and hide' oven, a Neff induction hob, and inbuilt Samsung fridge freezer. The rear terrace is perfect for al fresco dining and the lawn, surrounded by shrub borders, is ideal for children to play in. A door from the dining area leads to the garage that has automatic doors and is plumbed with a sink and washing machine. Off the galleried landing on the first floor there is a contemporary bathroom and three double bedrooms including one with fitted wardrobes. The very large dual aspect main bedroom enjoys a raft of built in cupboards, additional eaves storage and a trendy ensuite with a bath and twin vanity basins. What the Owner says:
We absolutely love this house. St. George's Lees is very peaceful and is perfectly located close to the centre of Sandwich but just outside the conservation area. It is also ideally located for the brilliant local schools and commuting to London via the High Speed 1 connection to St. Pancras International. Our family has recently increased in size and very reluctantly feel that we need to upsize to meet the demands of our many children and frequent visits from grandparents and friends.
The medieval Cinque port town of Sandwich is a rare gem with its beautiful buildings, pubs, hotels, restaurants, and boutiques. There are many gorgeous places to go for walks. Budding golfers can enjoy their game at the world-renowned Royal St George's championship course, Royal Cinque Ports, and Princes. Boating enthusiasts can moor up along the River Stour and the beach at Sandwich Bay is close by.
