DESCRIPTION
West End Villa presents an exciting opportunity to acquire a unique Grade II Listed period property on the outskirts of this popular village by the sea. The property, which was last sold in 1971 to the current owners, has suffered a prolonged period of neglect and it is more than fair to say that it does now require an extensive programme of repair and refurbishment. However, occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.33 of an acre, retaining some lovely original architectural features and enjoying versatile accommodation which, subject to the necessary consents and approvals being obtained, could be reconfigured, presents a wonderful prospect to restore a landmark building to its former glory and create a truly exceptional home tailored to suit the purchasers own tastes and requirements. The property is considered well worthy of any expenditure required and has been priced accordingly.
The accommodation comprises two reception rooms, a rear hallway leading to bath and cloakrooms and a secondary staircase to a mezzanine floor and one of the bedrooms. There is also a kitchen/breakfast room to the rear. There are two double bedrooms on the main first floor and two further attic bedrooms on the second floor.
The house is surrounded by gardens to all sides, beyond which is a small paddock and the plot totals approximately 0.33 of an acre. There is also a detached garage and lean-to.
For room sizes please refer to the floorplan.
SITUATION
The property lies on the western outskirts of the village of Dymchurch, within a reasonable walk of its centre and about 5.5 miles from the larger town of Hythe. It is set back from the road, with bus stops nearby and services available to Hythe, Folkestone and New Romney.
Dymchurch provides a variety of facilities including a cafes, bakery, and public house. There I also a Tesco Express and there is a Sainsburys in New Romney (around 4 miles distant). Hythe is well catered for with a bustling high street with a variety of independent traders and four supermarkets (including Waitrose, Sainsburys and Aldi).
The M20 (Junction 11) and the Channel Tunnel Terminal at Cheriton and are both only about 8 and 9 miles respectively, providing relatively easy access to both the Continent and London.
