Description
The ground floor apartment, One Centuries, is accessed via Bartholomew Street, while Two Centuries, located on the upper ground floor, is approached through a gate on Church Hill. This gate leads beneath a canopy of wisteria to a charming walled courtyard garden that, once closed, offers a peaceful and private retreat. The building has been carefully and tastefully restored by the current owner, both inside and out, and now boasts a stylish yet sensitive presentation that highlights many period details such as exposed beams and original fireplaces.
Each apartment offers its own distinctive layout. The upper ground floor apartment, Two Centuries, features a beautiful sitting room bathed in natural light from impressive Gothic windows, a versatile dining room or third bedroom, a study, a spacious kitchen/dining area, two bedrooms, a dressing room with shower room, a separate bathroom, and a utility room. The ground floor apartment is equally adaptable, currently configured with one bedroom, two reception rooms, a kitchen, and a shower room. It also enjoys its own attractive courtyard garden. Additionally, the property benefits from a generous garage equipped with power, lighting, an electric car charging point and automated roller door.
Situated just off Hythe's high street, which offers a good selection of independent shops, cafes, bars, restaurants and pubs as well as the all-important Waitrose store, Iceland, Sainsbury's and Aldi. The historic Royal Military canal runs through the centre of the town and Hythe enjoys an unspoilt promenade. Doctors surgeries, dentists, library and council offices are all also located within the general town centre area. High speed rail services are available from both Folkestone railway stations giving fast access to London St Pancras in just over fifty minutes. The M20 Motorway, Channel Tunnel Terminal and Port of Dover are also easily accessed by car.

OUTSIDE
Access to Centuries is gained through an impressive gate with an entry phone system, set into the original ragstone boundary wall. This leads onto a path laid with natural stone, which guides you to a spacious terrace bordered by raised planting beds. These are filled with a rich mix of shrubs, perennials, and other plants, including an acer, an apple tree, lavender, and a stunning wisteria that cascades along the side of the building.
A decorative trellis screen, adorned with jasmine and other climbing plants, discreetly separates another section of the garden. Here, a circular lawn sits at the centre, encircled by similarly planted raised beds. From this tranquil space, a set of steps descends to the lower ground level, where a second natural stone terrace provides an additional outdoor area.
