Location

Situation: This property is located in a lovely tucked away location within walking distance of the centre of Rye, renowned for its cobbled streets, medieval fortifications, period architecture and beautiful parish church. Although a historic Cinque Port town steeped in history, Rye also caters for every day modern life and has a comprehensive range of shopping, health and leisure facilities, as well as great cafes, restaurants, pubs and hotels. Rye has also become something of an arts centre with many galleries and local craft shops. There is also an annual Rye Arts and International Jazz Festival and a two-screen Kino cinema complex. The Romney Marsh countryside that surrounds Rye is spectacular and with the coast just a stones throw away, there are many good walks and leisure activities to pursue. There are a wide choice of educational opportunities nearby in both the state and public sectors and for transport, the town has local train services to Eastbourne / Brighton and to Ashford, where the high speed connection to London St. Pancras can have you in the capital in 37 minutes.

Accommodation

The front door opens into an entrance vestibule, with useful space for coats, boots and bags, leading through to a handy utility area with room for white goods, built-in storage cupboards and the boiler. From here, the accommodation opens into the impressive kitchen/dining room, a lovely light and airy space which forms the heart of the home. The vaulted ceiling, together with a Velux window above the dining area, creates a wonderful sense of space and natural light, making this an ideal setting for everyday family life as well as entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of traditional style units, incorporating a ceramic sink, five burner gas hob with oven below and extractor above. There is space for a freestanding fridge/freezer, together with a useful built-in pantry providing additional storage. To the rear of this sociable space is the sitting room, a lovely sunny reception room with a southerly aspect and double doors opening directly onto the courtyard garden.

The central living space is flanked by two distinct areas of accommodation, offering a particularly useful degree of flexibility. The east wing comprises two generous double bedrooms and a good sized shower room, providing an ideal arrangement for children, visiting family or perhaps an elderly relative who would appreciate having their own space.

To the west wing of the property is the main bedroom, which enjoys a southerly aspect and views over the garden, together with a further garden room offering an additional reception space and an ideal spot in which to relax, read or simply enjoy the outlook. This part of the house also incorporates the main bathroom and access to the integral garage, which has an electric roller door for convenient parking and additional storage.

Storage is another real advantage here, with numerous built-in cupboards and wardrobes thoughtfully incorporated throughout the accommodation, making this a surprisingly practical home as well as a versatile one.

Outside

The property is approached via a shared unmade lane, with off-street parking to the front, in addition to the integral garage, which provides further parking or useful storage.

Designed with ease of maintenance in mind, the garden incorporates raised beds, offering scope for some colourful planting without the need for extensive upkeep.
