Viewing is essential to appreciate this attractive detached three bedroom dutch gable fronted house that occupies an enviable location on elevated ground with fabulous views over the established gardens, rolling countryside and to the English Channel.  Inside the accommodation is laid out around a reception hall that opens into the dining area.  The kitchen/breakfast room is set to the rear of the property and enjoys views over the gardens and the living room has a triple aspect with wood burning stove and sliding door onto the patio.  The spacious utility room opens out onto the enclosed courtyard which in turn leads to the garage, garden room and rear patio.   To the first floor are three bedrooms, one with an en-suite and one with a railing enclosed Juliet balcony.  In addition is a separate bathroom.  The gardens are a real feature offering a good level of privacy being enclosed by mature hedging. There is a large area of parking and to the rear is a glazed enclosed balcony which takes in views of the garden and beyond.  The gardens are tiered, gently falling away with areas of lawn and to the rear is a kitchen garden.
