What the Owner says:

When we purchased the property it required total renovation but we loved the position, the large garden and the garage complex. So it was a labour of love to renovate it. The house has a new roof, plumbing and electrics as well as new kitchens and bathrooms. The windows include acoustic glazing on the lower ground and ground floors and double glazing on the upper floors.
The location is ideal with the seafront close by and the train station, with the high speed train that can whisk you to London in under an hour and 20 minutes, is not far away and it only a short drive to Dover and Folkestone.
Walmer has independent shops, bars and restaurants, the seafront, various sports clubs, the Downs Sailing Clubs and two local golf club. The Tides swimming pool complex is not far away and Deal is very close with its quaint streets, period properties, restaurants, independent shops, a Saturday market and its historic pier.
There is the Kingsdown and Walmer and the Royal Cinque Ports golf clubs for golfing enthusiasts and if you want to go slightly further afield there is also the championship courses at Royal St George's as well as Princes in Sandwich.
As far as education is concerned there are very good primary schools in the area, including Warden House, rated Outstanding by Ofsted and Goodwin Academy secondary school. A wide variety of excellent grammar and private schools are also available in the nearby towns.
