Woodside, St. Andrews Road, New Romney, Kent TN28 8RB

Summary

Internal viewing is highly recommended in order to appreciate what this home offers.

Originally constructed in 1964, with later additions, this attractive brick house has double glazed windows and doors throughout, 14 'owned' solar panels on the rear of the main roof, and a mains gas boiler installed in about 2023, all aiding the B EPC rating.

Woodside is approached over a private driveway with ample space for cars, a motorhome, or even a boat. The attached garage to the side has been divided and now offers storage to the front, ideal for a golf buggy or 2, with a home office, or hobbies room to the rear. The garaging could of course be reinstated internally by a purchaser, if required.

The principle reception rooms all lead off the generous entrance hall which has oak flooring and a turned staircase rising to the first floor. The sitting room has a feature fireplace, dado and picture rails and a super rear aspect with large windows and a door leading onto the terrace and the mature south facing gardens which are certainly a feature of this property. The formal dining room has double opening doors to the rear, whilst the L-Shaped kitchen/breakfast/casual dining room also leads into the rear garden or into the attached conservatory, which in turn gives access to the spacious and useful utility with shower cubicle and a former sauna.

Upstairs, the light, and spacious landing gives access to four generously proportioned double bedrooms which ensure ample space for family and guests alike. There is a bathroom, and a separate shower room.

The mature, and well stocked south facing rear garden is a true haven, basking in a sunny aspect and designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A spacious paved terrace runs almost the length of house, and provides the ideal setting for al fresco dining. There is a sizeable workshop, approx. 20ft x 10ft, a greenhouse, poly tunnel, raised vegetable beds and a fruit cage for those wanting to 'grow their own'.

Perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of coastal and countryside living, this lovely home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property of distinction in one of Littlestones most sought-after residential locations. Situated directly opposite the renowned Littlestone Golf course, walking distance of the Warren Golf course and the beach.

Situation

Set in a popular residential area, within Littlestone which is within the parish of New Romney, and is almost certainly one of the few remaining untouched seaside locations on this part of the Kent coast, with wide open, big skies adorning the English Channel and sweeping coastline. Popular with dog walkers aswell as water sport enthusiasts, the shoreline extends in either direction for long distances. Littlestone championship golf club can be seen, and is located directly opposite the front of the house, the Nature Reserve of Dungeness with its lighthouse, famous Pilot Restaurant, End of the Line cafe, seafood shack, and freshwater fishing lakes, and the famous Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway are within easy driving distance.

At low tide, a World War II Mulberry Harbour known as the 'Phoenix' is visible along the coast; it was unable to be refloated and towed to form part of the post D-Day harbour construction in Normandy, so was abandoned.

Just about a mile away is the market town of New Romney, with a historic, and characterful high street, home to several small and interesting shops, including a chemist, a butchers, a DIY/general store, pet shops, fruit and veg, hairdressers, a delicatessen, and a dog groomers along with a good selection of restaurants and coffee shops, plus a small Co-Op and a Sainsbury's supermarket.
