The Lees, Beltinge, Herne Bay

Spectacular sea views from this endearing 1920's thatched cottage positioned at the top of The Lees and accessed via the exclusive Hazelmere Drive in Beltinge.
'Cliff Cottage' is a landmark residence, occupying a sumptuous plot with generous gardens to both front and rear and excellent garaging with one double in size and one single.

A gorgeous thatched porch opens into an elegant and welcoming reception hall, immediately conveying the scale and character found throughout the home. There are two generous reception rooms, a conservatory and a kitchen/breakfast room on the ground floor. The first floor presents four excellent size bedrooms, a study and two bathrooms.
The property has been well maintained and improved during the owners 13 year tenure, but still provides scope to be taken to that next level if required. An expansive loft presents an opportunity to create a spectacular principal suite with dressing room and en suite, or alternatively two further bedrooms and an additional bathroom, subject to the necessary consents.

Moving outside and the 81' (24.81m) rear garden is a paradise for those who are green fingered while also great for entertaining. A 14' x 10' 9 (4.27m x 3.28m) Summer House complete with power, offers an excellent space for a studio, home office or garden retreat. Both garages can be accessed from the garden each with electric doors and one even featuring its own WC.

Properties of this calibre, in such an exceptional setting, seldom come to the market, making Cliff Cottage a truly outstanding opportunity to secure an iconic home overlooking the picturesque coastline of Beltinge.
