Sold STC - Brockhill Road, Hythe, CT21 - £795,000

Rear, Brockhill Road, Hythe, CT21

DESCRIPTION
In a prime residential location on the cusp of the sought after village of Saltwood, yet within reasonable walking distance of Hythe, this enchanting detached family house occupies a particularly generous plot on one of the areas most desirable roads.

It is fair to say that the property would now benefit from general updating and improvement but, with comfortably proportioned accommodation totalling approximately 1954 sq ft and, should further space be required, significant scope to extend (subject to all necessary consents and approvals being obtained). This currently comprises a welcoming entrance hall leading to the dual aspect sitting room with its cosy wood burning stove and adjoining study/bedroom 4, separate dining room, kitchen/breakfast room and a bathroom on the ground floor. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, one leading to a balcony and the principal room with an adjoining dressing room and a bathroom.

There is a generous garden to the front of the house with a driveway to the left (which also benefits the neighbouring property) leading to parking before the detached garage. To the left is a further driveway which is a little overgrown but already benefits from a dropped kerb. The garden to the rear is delightfully secluded, laid to lawn and is dotted with a variety of specimen trees.

For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.
