DESCRIPTION
Occupying a particularly generous plot, on elevated ground from where it commands lovely views over Hythe, of the sea and in the opposite direction, to Saltwood Castle, this deceivingly spacious detached bungalow enjoys versatile accommodation of particularly comfortable proportions. The generous entrance hall leads to a spacious sitting room with "Chesney" double sided wood burning stove, smartly fitted kitchen open plan to the dining room which is set beneath a vaulted ceiling with bi-folding doors leading out to the rear garden, Snug (2nd reception room), utility room, cloakroom, three double bedrooms (the principal with en-suite shower room) and a family bathroom.

A particularly attractive feature of the property are the gardens, there is a wide driveway at the side leading to the generous sized garage and access to the large workshop with considerable scope to convert (subject to all necessary consents and approvals being obtained) . To the rear of the bungalow is a secluded generous decked terrace, the perfect environment to relax and dine alfresco. The property also benfits from Solar Panels.
