Victoria Road, Deal, Kent

Only a few minutes' walk from Deal town centre and directly opposite Deal Castle and the seafront, is this elegant four storey Victorian townhouse. Set well with a large front garden and the added bonus of a double garage and off road parking for two cars. This is accessed from Hope Road at the rear of the property and having your own parking facility is a great advantage.

Although the property has been modernised, it retains many period features including fireplaces in many of the rooms. The period front door opens into a long hall with access to a shower room and the open plan lounge and sitting room, currently two rooms, with a bay window offering views towards the sea and the castle and original folding doors between the two areas so you can close them off have it open and double aspect.

On the lower ground floor there is a cloakroom and a dining room with a bay window, a fireplace flanked by half height cupboards, additional period features and external French doors to the front of the property. Next door is the kitchen with attractive slate flooring, a Rangemaster cooker and shaker style units with granite worktops incorporating a dishwasher while the adjacent utility room includes stand-alone appliances, a new tank, boiler cupboard and a door to the rear garden.

The half landing leading to the first floor includes a walk-in store cupboard that could always be converted into a shower/cloakroom, while the first floor has a single bedroom and two double bedrooms. One double has fitted shelving and a bay window with sea views and the other has a fireplace and a fitted cupboard.

The split level second floor has a cloakroom while the landing is large enough to have a seating area and includes access to the attic. There is a fabulous contemporary bathroom as well as a very large double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and views over the rear garden and a second double with lovely views to the sea and glimpses of the castle through the trees.

The easily maintained rear garden includes a large patio for outdoor entertaining and a lawn surrounded by shrub borders with a pathway leading to the rear gate, double garage and parking area.

What the Owner says:

I love Deal with its plethora of quaint streets, period properties, excellent restaurants and a raft of attractive independent shops as well as the Saturday market and the seafront with its historic pier. As the house is only a short stroll from the high street we do not need to take the car out. However, even though we are so close to the town centre, because our home is so far back from the road, it is very quiet and peaceful. Although we have updated it to be comfortable for modern day living, we have retained all the wonderful period features that make it so special.
As far as education is concerned there are excellent primary schools in the area including Warden House, rated Outstanding by Ofsted, while excellent grammar schools are available in Dover, Sandwich, Ramsgate and Canterbury with first class private schools in Dover, Ramsgate and Canterbury. These are easily accessible by train from Deal station, which is only an eight minute walk from the property. The fast train can whisk you to London in under an hour and a half and there is easy access to Dover docks and the Channel Tunnel.For sporting aficionados there are a number of clubs in Deal and Walmer including rugby, bowls, tennis and croquet as well as the Tides leisure centre, the Downs Sailing club and the rowing club. For golfing enthusiasts the Royal Cinque Ports and Kingsdown and Walmer golf clubs beckon and there are championship courses in Sandwich.
