Sundown, St Monicas Road, Kingsdown, Kent

A charming exceptionally well presented detached bungalow situated in one of the most sought-after roads in the popular village of Kingsdown. Believed to have been built in the 1930s ‘Sundown’ was purchased by the current owners through ourselves in 2017, since then they have carried out a number of sympathetic improvements to create a beautiful home.

The flexible accommodation comprises: hall, lounge (potential 3rd bedroom) with a sunny double aspect and a woodburning stove. Kitchen/breakfast room opening into a living/dining room overlooking the rear garden, 2 double bedrooms, bathroom and a separate cloakroom. From the kitchen a pull down stair ladder leads to an attic room with a Velux window giving a lovely view over the village to the sea beyond. Given the property’s location, purchasers might consider the possibility of extending and/or re-modelling the attic/roof space to create further accommodation to take full advantage of the views. Outside to the front is a driveway/parking area for 3 cars, to the side is a single garage, garden room, tool shed and wood store. The rear gardens are laid out with a lawn, 2 patio areas, fishpond and borders stocked with an interesting variety of established plants, shrubs and fruit trees.
St Monica’s is a quiet tree lined private no-through road within easy walking distance of the beach, shops, pubs as well as a network of footpaths leading to countryside walks.
KINGSDOWN is a former fishing village of charm and character and offers a range of leisure activities. In the village there is a small selection of shops and amenities including a Newsagent/Post Office, butcher, three Public Houses (one located on the beach), the Church of St Johns and a Primary School (rated outstanding by Ofsted). Recreational activities include water sports and fishing along with Walmer & Kingsdown Golf Course. A further three Champion golf courses are a short drive away including Royal St Georges in Sandwich (venue for the British Open). The nearby award winning historic coastal town of DEAL (3 miles) has much to offer including a good choice of restaurants, micro bars, pubs the Astor Theatre, Artisan shops and popular Saturday morning market, yet still retains much of its character as a former maritime town. DOVER, with its docks and cross-Channel services, is seven miles away, offering fast access to the Continent and fast Rail Link access to London St Pancras travelling from the nearest station at Walmer (1hr 15mins).
