Property history of 1 The Corniche, Sandgate, Folkestone CT20 3TA, 26th Jul 2011

The present owners moved to the property approximately five
years ago shortly after they had remodelled the interior. Extensive
refurbishment works entailed rewiring the electrical circuits, renewing
much of the plumbing, upgrading the central heating system and fitting
new upvc double glazed windows and doors. With the essentials in
place they embarked upon completely redesigning and refurbishing the
interior, installing a high quality bespoke kitchen and fitting luxuriously
appointed bath and shower room suites. The results of the no expense
spared transformation are amazing and they have certainly succeeded
in creating a truly beautiful home in an outstanding setting.


The light and airy interior is entered at upper floor level, moving
through from the entrance hall, one is immediately confronted with
spectacular sea views from an immense open plan living space with
patio doors leading onto a large south facing balcony. The superbly
equipped kitchen/breakfast room with sea views is also situated on the
upper floor and there is an inner hallway that leads off to a cloakroom
and has a door that connects to the rear of the double width garage.


A dog leg staircase with an attractive hardwood balustrade descends
from the living area to a spacious hallway with access to the superbly
landscaped rear garden via door from the study. The present owners
prefer to use one of the four bedrooms as a utility room; their master
bedroom has a large en-suite shower room and in common with the
family bathroom is stylishly appointed.


Amenities in and around the area include excellent water sports
along the coast, Sene Valley Golf Course, horse racing at Folkestone
Racecourse, a sports centre and swimming pool. Folkestone with its
comprehensive range of shopping and educational facilities and the
Cinque Port town of Hythe with its quaint High street are both within
easy reach. The high speed rail service from Folkestone Central and
Folkestone West stations to London, St Pancras is a very commutable
journey time of less than an hour. The M20 is easily accessible providing
fast travel to the Channel Tunnel Terminal at Cheriton and Ashford
International Railway Station.
