3 bed Detached House
£1,200,000
Cannongate Gardens,Hythe,CT21
DESCRIPTION
An exciting opportunity to acquire an exceptional property which is enviably situated at the end of an exclusive cul-de-sac in a south facing elevated position from where it commands a stunning panorama over Hythe, of the sea, to the coast of France and around the bay to Dungeness. The property has benefitted enormously from an extensive programme of remodelling and refurbishment for the current owners who have created a unique home, designed to maximise the breathtaking views which can be enjoyed from almost every room and befitting of its particularly special setting.
This spacious detached chalet house boasts impeccably presented, versatile accommodation which has been designed to compliment a modern lifestyle with a welcoming entrance hall with its impressive bespoke staircase leading to beautifully bright and airy open plan living spaces, a generous kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, garden room, ground floor bedroom with en-suite shower room and a cloakroom. On the first floor there is a further mezzanine living space which leads to two generous bedrooms, each with en-suites, the principal room with a west facing balcony from where stunning views can be enjoyed.
The gardens are a delight providing a level of privacy and seclusion which is seldom achieved. There are wonderful terraces, perfect for alfresco entertaining and providing a perfect vantage point from which to enjoy the views of the sea which can also be seen from the more sheltered rear garden, through large picture windows in the living spaces. There is a wide driveway providing ample parking and access to the integral garage.
For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.
