4 bed detached house for sale

Albert Road, Hythe CT21

Detailed Description

Description
This handsome double fronted link detached Victorian Villa is being offered for sale on the open market for the first time since it was purchased in 1975. Whilst some improvements have been made over the years, not least of all the recovering of the roofs, it is fair to say that Malvern Villa does now require a programme of refurbishment. However, with a wealth of original features and generously proportioned accommodation, the property offers the potential to create an exceptional home tailored to suit the new owners own tastes and requirements, is considered well worthy of any expenditure required and has been priced accordingly.

The versatile accommodation is currently arranged to provide a welcoming entrance hall leading to the sitting room which spans the full depth of the property, the dining room, a breakfast room beyond which is the kitchen, adjoining utility area and a shower room. There is also a conservatory. The first floor comprises an elegant landing leading to three double bedrooms, a cloakroom and to the study. Beyond the study is the bathroom leading to an inner hallway with a secondary staircase returning to the kitchen and beyond which is the fourth bedroom.

To the front of the house the pretty garden is divided by a lovely original encaustic tiled pathway and side access can be gained to the rear garden which is walled, enjoys a westerly aspect and incorporates a couple of outbuildings.

For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.
