Property DESCRIPTIONThis deceptively large detached house is set back from the road by a small well kept front garden. The entrance is accessed via the driveway, which provides parking for 2 cars, and is sheltered by an open porch attached to the garage. The garage benefits from power and light so could be used as a workshop. A large, bright open plan lounge/diner welcomes you in and has a solid dark wood floor and feature fireplace. There is a built in cupboard for coats/storage at the bottom of the stairs.

A doorway leads from the lounge/diner into the good sized kitchen which has space for a small table. At the back of the house is a heated conservatory, offering extra living space. This room leads to a utility room with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a downstairs cloakroom. Outside is a small private sunny aspect, low maintenance garden, with a shed.

Upstairs there are 4 double bedrooms and a single, which could be used to work from home. The main bedroom has large built in wardrobes and there is a large airing cupboard on the landing, providing lots of storage space.

The home is in a great location on the west side of Hythe, with plenty of open spaces to explore just a short walk from the house, including the Palmarsh recreation grounds, walks along the Royal Military canal, the 'Roughs' and the coastal cycle path. Palmarsh primary school is a few minute's walk from the house and there is a bus route which offers easy access to both Hythe and Dymchurch.

Southeastern and HS1 offer easy travel to London and other cities from the nearby Sandling train station.

Hythe is a well served town with a bustling High Street, 4 supermarkets and a range of independent shops, cafes, boutiques and restaurants. There are 2 golf courses, a swimming pool and other leisure facilities locally, not to mention its amazing seafront and beaches.
