3 bed detached house for sale

Fairlight Road, Hythe CT21

Detailed Description

Description
Situated in a favoured location where it occupies a particularly generous plot of approximately 0.25 of an acre, this deceptively spacious detached chalet bungalow is being offered for sale for the first time in over 60 years. Now requiring general updating and improvement, the property offers an exciting opportunity for prospective purchasers to create a home tailored to suit their own tastes and requirements. There is also considerable scope to extend should additional space be required (subject to all necessary consents and approvals being obtained).

The accommodation, which is of particularly comfortable proportions, is currently arranged to provide a generous entrance hall leading to a sitting room, separate dining room (which could serve as a fourth bedroom), kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility area, a double bedroom and a wet room on the ground floor. There are two further double bedrooms on the first floor, one which used to be two rooms.

The gardens are delightfully secluded and larger than one would expect as they widen to the far end across the neighbouring properties gardens. They incorporate a generous terrace, a wealth of mature shrubs and specimen trees and expanse of lawn. There is parking to the front and a garage.

For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.
Situation

Fairlight Road is viewed as being amongst Hythe's most desirable locations being high enough up the hill to benefit from lovely views over the town and to sea, yet remaining within reasonable walking distance of the vibrant High Street, with its range of independent shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafes, together with 4 supermarkets (including Waitrose, Sainsburys & Aldi), doctors' surgeries, etc. The attractive, unspoilt seafront and picturesque Royal Military Canal are only a little further and there are a variety of sports and leisure facilities in the vicinity, including 2 golf courses and the Hotel Imperial Leisure Centre, cricket, squash and bowls clubs etc. Schools are also excellent with Hythe Bay C of E Primary, Saltwood C of E Primary, St Augustines Catholic Primary & Brockhill Park Performing arts College all being accessible together with boys and girls Grammar Schools in Folkestone.

The area is fortunate in having particularly good communications with a main line railway station in Saltwood (Sandling - 1.5 miles) and access to the M20 (Junction 11 - 2.3 miles). The High Speed Link rail service to Stratford and St Pancras is available from Folkestone West (5 miles) and Ashford International (10 miles), with journey times of 53 and 37 minutes respectively. The Channel Tunnel Terminal is around 3 miles away and the ferry port of Dover is 12 miles away. (All distances are approximate).
