Hawkshill Road, Walmer, Deal, Kent

Whether you want a gorgeous permanent residence or a wonderful holiday and weekend retreat this superb detached family home, in a generous plot and situated in an idyllic location along a quiet private road, could tick all the right boxes. It has uninterrupted countryside views at the front, is only about a minute's walk from an unspoilt beach and backs onto Walmer Castle's delightful gardens. Built by the Denne family builders in the1930s it has charming period features including fireplaces, picture rails and original woodwork. A gravel driveway bordered by a large front lawn and terrace surrounded by shrubs and hedging leads to a spacious parking area and the main entrance. A lobby opens into the hall with original wood flooring and leads to the light and bright sitting and dining areas with two sets of French doors to the conservatory, a further set to the front terrace and a large window providing stunning views. The adjacent conservatory makes a great additional living area. The kitchen/breakfast room includes a pantry, wall cabinets and units housing integrated and stand-alone appliances plus space for a table and chairs. There is a utility room, a charming garden room with access to the rear garden and a music room/study with a high wood-panelled ceiling. This has a separate external door to the driveway so would be ideal as a work from home as it is immediately accessible to business visitors. Alternatively, as it is soundproofed, it would also make a great gym or games room.

Upstairs there is a shower room, a family bathroom, a single bedroom with lovely views and three double bedrooms. These include one dual aspect with a wall of fitted cupboards, another with equally lovely views and the dual aspect principal with a dressing area, fitted cupboards and an ensuite shower room.

The rear garden features a terrace, lawn, shrubs, a pond, a greenhouse and high hedging while a hedged archway leads to the end of the garden that backs onto Walmer Castle grounds and includes a decommissioned swimming pool that could always be resurrected or converted.

What the Owner says:

This has been a very special place for the past 30 years in a tranquil location with wonderful views but it is time to downsize and give new owners the opportunity to create their own unique home.
