East Street, Herne Bay

JUST YARDS FROM THE SEAFRONT... An incredibly unique character home found just yards from the seafront in one direction and the town center in the other.
This substantial home is in need of some light TLC but has so much to offer, covering approximately 2069 sq ft (194 sq m) over three floors.
A grand entrance porch opens into a large lounge with an inglenook style fireplace and ornate spiral staircase which both prove to be real focal points. The 25' (7.85m) kitchen/diner is well equipped and perfect for entertaining. Sleek gloss units are complimented by granite worktops and designer appliances whilst a utility area and cloakroom conclude the ground floor.
The palatial 'Master Suite' is complete with a extensive built in wardrobes and a very useful study/dressing room adjacent. The second bedroom benefits from open plan en-suite facilities whilst a stunning family bathroom completes the first floor. The third bedroom then occupies the second floor.
Externally, a private courtyard garden is found to the rear.
All in all, a real 'one-off' property which must be seen to be appreciated.
