DESCRIPTION
Walnut Tree Cottage occupies a plot of a little more than 0.25 of an acre with a frontage to Stone Street of approximately 29 feet and an overall depth of approximately 365 feet. The far end of the plot sides onto Belcaire Close and it is considered that there could be some potential for an additional dwelling to be constructed (subject to all necessary consents and approvals being obtained).
The property itself has suffered from a prolonged period of neglect, it is fair to say that it does now require a programme of repair and refurbishment. However, with comfortably proportioned two bedroom, two reception room accommodation it does offer scope to create a very comfortable home which would be tailored to suit the purchasers own tastes and requirements. There is also considerable scope to extend (subject to all necessary consents and approvals being obtained).
There are long gardens to the front and rear and off street parking accessed from Stone Street.
For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.
SITUATION
The property is situated in the heart of the popular village of Lympne with its newsagent/post office, church, village hall, pub and Castle (the historic Lympne Castle which has a bar and restaurant open to the public).
