***CHAIN FREE*** Attention House Hunters, This Is A Rare Opportunity To Purchase A Superbly Decorated & Positioned Four Bedroom House With Panoramic Sea Views, Double Garage and Private Driveway In The Very Sought-after Seabrook in Hythe, Kent. Folkestone & Hawkinge estate agents Your Key Move are absolutely delighted to bring to market this amazing house. Now then, let's take you on a descriptive fest for what lies in wait should you decide to view this property. Let's start with the inside of the house. Situated in a quiet elevated cul-de-sac, this property appeals from the offset when you pull up and see that there is a large driveway for up to 3 cars and huge double garages with electric doors. But it's when you have parked up and start to walk up the beautifully tiled steps to the front door that you realise this house has a real feel of foreign style which most houses lack. This is emulated not just from the pretty tiles but also the way the grey paneling within the wooden fencing has been cleverly thought out. So in through the modern front door you are greeted by impressive wooden flooring which sweeps round the central walled column in this brilliant open plan living space. The central wall has had a fire pit cleverly installed within to open up not just the view to the dining area but also to serve as an instant heat source and prominent feature. It's here that you start to notice the attention to detail as you see those same lovely tiles from outside making a cameo appearance. The lounge area off to your right has large glazed sliding doors which lead out to the first of the two balconies this house has to offer. You will already start to see those stunning sea views from this level which we have alluded to. This then moves round into the dining area which also benefits from some wonderful views from the large windows. The kitchen worktop stretches out to create a sub-divide, thus providing a handy breakfast bar area. The kitchen itself is of very high specification featuring all the modern appliances one would expect and hope for. The door from the kitchen takes you out to the covered walkway which immediately gives you a glimpse of what lies ahead. With a large paved terraced area sitting just slightly above you, you then have a series of levels which take you up this fabulous landscaped garden to the priceless summit. It's here that you have your first real wow moment, as you stand atop the upper composite decking area to take in those awe inspiring panoramic sea views. This really is a million pound view and is impossible to do it justice with our description here. But let's take you back inside the house now and up to the second level. From the spacious landing area you have three bedrooms and a luxury modern bathroom. Two of the double bedrooms have the most stunning sea views whilst the third bedroom (which is currently being used as an office) impresses with its unique shape and ample windows for that all important natural light. When I first walked up the stairs and into the fourth bedroom (the principle suite) on the top floor during our valuation, I was surprised to say Oh wow for a second time on my grand tour. For although I had already seen the view from the top of the garden, the views and impression you get from this gem of a room are impossible to beat. The most wonderful bespoke bi-folding glass doors look out over the second balcony to the most magical sea views (turquoise on the day we visited). I think that what made this even more impressive was the absolutely huge bedroom they look out of. With large fitted floor to ceiling wardrobes on one side and a seating area in front of the windows, this room is not just impressive but functional. There is a hidden dressing area neatly tucked away at the back and one of the nicest en-suit bathrooms we have seen beyond. The en-suite is a fully tiled wet room with a large shower and also has a magnificent skylight just over the modern free standing bath, perfect for lying in at both day and night time. Additional The property benefits from underfloor heating in the entrance hallway, both bathrooms, kitchen and main bedroom whilst also benefiting from a low council tax band and low heating and energy costs as a result of being an eco-friendly house after its refurbishment. Included in the sale is a solid teak vanity unit (worth £1000) with marble basins, 3 rose gold mirror splashbacks (worth £2000+) and a sustainable Bioethanol fireplace. It is also worth noting that the owners spent in the region of £40,000 landscaping the rear garden Situation From a location perspective, Seabrook is a beautiful, highly desirable coastal village nestled between Hythe and Folkestone offering a wide range of restaurants, bars, and cafes. A short journey to Hythe in the East and Sandgate and Folkestone to the West reveals a fantastic collection of small independent shops and rich history as well as fresh local fish & chips and stunning coastal walks. You can also walk right along the flat seafront promenade from Sandgate right up to the up and coming Folkestone Harbour Arm, where high end restaurants and champagne bars can be found. What better way than to stroll along on a hot summer's day without the need of having to drive. There is also the lovely coastal market town of Hythe to your right, with a huge range of culinary delights to suit everyone's tastes. With two 'Outstanding' Grammar schools in less than ten minutes drive, and an 'Outstanding' primary school but five minutes away, this location will suite any family. Then there is the Folkestone West train station which is only 2 miles away and provides a high-speed rail link to London, as does the M20 motorway. With Eurostar, Dover Ferry Port and Eurotunnel all on your doorstep, you will be perfectly positioned for any European adventures. So to sum up. This wonderful house really does have it all. From its great location to the designer inspired interior and truly awe inspiring sea views, we know the lucky new owner need only to move in and relax in the lap of luxury and toast their good fortune. Viewing is Highly Recommended and only through an appointment with Folkestone & Hawkinge Estate Agents Your Key Move Finally, a little word from the owners... We will forever hold fond memories of our time living in this property. From the magical sea views, quiet and private Cul-de-sac and respectful neighbours, plus proximity to the beach, Sandgate, Hythe Town and Folkestone Harbour Arm, all these factors have contributed to us as a family enjoying a fabulous, active life in Seabrook (Hythe). We often have to visit London, sometimes on a weekly basis for work and the commute is only 54 minutes by fast train. We love travelling as well, and are able to hop over to France on the Eurotunnel which only takes 35 minutes! This location offered the best of all aspects to a wonderful lifestyle for us, we thoroughly enjoyed it
St Marys Meadow is probably Wingham's best kept secret. You could drive through the picturesque village many times and not realise there is a discreetly hidden cul-de-sac of impressive detached houses just off the high street. Here many of the properties have uninterrupted views across open countryside including this jewel of a family home with a particularly large and beautifully designed garden that backs onto fields. Bought some 35 years ago by the owners when it was a new build it has been upgraded and modernised over the years and now provides plenty of flexible accommodation available to suit a variety of requirements.There is a block paved driveway where you can park up to four cars and a double garage as well as a large outer porch. A spacious entrance hall includes recently added understairs storage with ample room for coats, shoes and more and access through the ground floor including an integral door to the garage. The elegant lounge with its living flame gas fire and attractive surround as well as a large box bay window and bi-folding doors to the amazing conservatory. This can be used all year round as it has Thomas Sanderson electronic blinds, climate control windows, underfloor heating and French doors to the upper terrace and when the bi-fold doors from the lounge and the French doors are open it makes a fabulous free flowing entertainment space.

It has also been a pleasure developing the well-stocked garden however we feel it is now time to downsize and move nearer to our children.

This five-bedroom detached house of over 4,000 sq ft lies in Ightham, Kent, surrounded by over half an acre of meadowed grounds. Built in the 1980s, it was remodelled and extended by the current owners, who have ensured strong connections between indoors and out. Although Ightham has a rural, secluded feel and is within the Kent Downs AONB, nearby Borough Green Station runs services to London Victoria in under 50 minutes, while Sevenoaks Station, a 13-minute drive away, connects to London Bridge in just 23 minutes. The Tour Set behind a set of automatic gates and a sweeping driveway, the house's profile is shaped by a complementary pairing of black composite cladding and red brick. A solid black door is beneath a storm porch that opens to an internal hall laid with five-finger parquet flooring. From here, a circling staircase descends to the living room, lending the space a sunken 'conversation pit' feel. A double-height, mono-pitch ceiling creates an airy yet cosy feel. At the far end, glazed doors open to a flagstone patio - great for summertime hosting, although a gas fire inside ensures year-round functionality. A wide opening off the hallway leads into the dining room, laid with grey stone tiles and with white walls and a second gas fire. The dialogue between the internal plan and the outdoors is maintained by more sliding doors that open to the garden. The kitchen beyond has been conceived with day-to-day needs in mind. White cabinetry takes a U-shape, snaking around the room's generous proportions, and is topped with a grey stone countertop; integrated appliances include a black Miele induction hob, a wine cooler, twin Neff ovens and a steel sink. A useful island adds counter space and subtly demarcates the room. Opposite, the current owners have arranged more casual dining and sitting areas, although the room's versatility lends itself to various configurations. An oriel picture window with a window seat looks over the lawn outside and works with roof lights to fill the space with light. Above, a steel beam painted a fluorescent yellow exemplifies the playfully practical approach to decoration across the plan. A well-considered utility room and study complete the ground-floor plan. In the latter, floor-to-ceiling windows, a built-in desk and open bookshelves make for a comfortable working-from-home environment. Back towards the entrance of the house is a staircase that ascends to a small landing with two double bedrooms opposite one another. In the front room, double-aspect windows overlook neighbouring woodland, while the rear room has a glazed door opening to a patio. The latter also has useful built-in wardrobes. An immaculate bathroom between the bedrooms is finished with fluted windows, grey rubber flooring, antique brass taps and metro tiles and has a free-standing bath and a walk-in shower. Upstairs are three further double bedrooms, all with green outlooks. The main bedroom has wide black-framed sliding doors that open to a slender terrace with views towards the bucolic North Downs. Plenty of storage is concealed behind muted grey shaker-style pocket doors and there is an en suite with a walk-in shower. One of the two further bedrooms has a bank of built-in wardrobes. Both are served by a generous bathroom with a walk-in shower. A basement, accessed from an internal lobby, has been wonderfully adapted for a range of functions. Arranged with lounge seating, it offers a further reception area and has a separate office or, as it's currently used, a crafting area, complete with a built-in L-shaped desk. Outdoor Space Bates Hill has a generous and varied provision of outdoor space. Extensive grounds of around half an acre encompass a large double garage with an EV charging point and a hot/tub training pool. A thoughtful approach to planting is immediately apparent; along the long driveway are mature trees, including oak, hawthorn and ivy, as well as planted beds that teem with grasses and ferns. A planted bed in front of the ground-floor bedroom has red-leaved grass, verbena, camelia, ferns and grasses. The garden connects to the indoors via sliding doors. It is divided between areas of lawn and terraces, including a steel-framed pergola from the dining room and a flagstone-laid patio area currently arranged with lounge seating beneath a steel-framed sunshade. A family of rabbits call this spot home too, and can often be seen frolicking in the garden. A second part of the garden abuts the church's woodland; predominantly lawn, it also has a lovely seating area thoughtfully placed beneath a sloping roof section next to the living room. A glass 'igloo' in the main garden is a wonderful spot to enjoy the warmth on a summer's day. The Area Ightham is a pretty village in the Kent Downs Area of Natural Beauty, around four miles east of Sevenoaks and six miles north of Tonbridge. Surrounded by rolling Kentish hills, Ightham is perhaps best known for Ightam Mote, a 14th-century moated manor house set amid extensive and landscaped gardens. The village has a handy shop, an art gallery - Pratt Contemporary - and Greenacres garden centre. A cosy timber-framed local, George and Dragon, is in the heart of Ightham; there is also a village hall that hosts events throughout the year. Sevenoaks can be reached in around 14 minutes by car. At one end of the town is the beautiful Knole Park, a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest with 43 acres of grounds, a country house and two different types of deer. The town itself has a range of shops, restaurants and coffee shops, including Basil and Life on High. Historic pubs are aplenty - the White Hart comes recommended, particularly after a weekend walk at nearby Knole. Tonbridge is also nearby for other amenities, as is Bluewater Shopping Centre, around 17 miles from the house. Kent is known for its excellent schooling options. In the immediate vicinity is Ightham Primary School, which was rated "Outstanding" by Ofsted; there are also primary schools in nearby Borough Green and Shipbourne. There are several secondary schools in Sevenoaks and Tonbridge, several grammar schools as well as well-regarded private schools such as Sevenoaks School and Tonbridge School. The New Beacon School and Walthamstow Preparatory School are also nearby. Ightham sits around 28 miles south-east of London; as a result, connections into the city are quick and frequent. Borough Green Station is just over a mile away and runs services to London Charing Cross, London Bridge and London Blackfriars; from Sevenoaks Station, a 13-minute drive away, services arrive at London Bridge in 23 minutes, with services also connecting to Charing Cross and Cannon Street. The house is also well situated for travel by car, with the M25 and M20 both in easy reach. Council Tax Band: H
