DESCRIPTIONFormerly the village shop, this well situated characterful cottage presents an exciting opportunity to acquire a property which now requires general updating and improvement but has the potential to provide a very comfortable and unusual home which can be tailored specifically to suit the purchasers own tastes and requirements.

The comfortably proportioned accommodation comprises an entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, cloakroom and storeroom on the ground floor. On the first floor there are twodouble bedrooms and a bathroom. From the main bedroom there is an enclosed loggia which leads to a generous roof terrace which could be made to look most attractive and enjoys some lovely views.

To the rear of the house is a courtyard (neighbours have access over this area) at the end of which is a double width car port providing off street parking.

SITUATION The property is situated in the popular and picturesque hamlet of Newington with some lovely local walks, pretty village church and railway museum. Sene Valley golf course is nearby and Hythe town centre is a little over three miles away which provides a wide range of amenities including 4 supermarkets (including Waitrose, Sainsburys and Aldi), and a bustling High Street with a variety of independent shops, cafes, restaurants, boutiques and eateries. The unspoilt seafront is only a little further with its long stretches of shingle beach, Hythe Bay Fish Restaurant and Griggs Seafood Restaurant where you can dine alfresco on the beach. There is also an excellent selection of sports and leisure facilities in the vicinity including golf courses, swimming pool, bowls, cricket and squash clubs together with the Hotel Imperial Leisure Centre.

Folkestone is also very accessible with its busy High Street, Artists Quarter, vibrant Harbour Arm and of course the beautiful Leas Promenade. There are also excellent educational facilities in the vicinity including boys and girls grammar schools.

The motorway network (M20 Junction 11) is within a short driving distance of the property (approx 1 mile), the Channel Tunnel Terminal is nearby, the ferry port of Dover (15 miles) and Ashford International Passenger Station (12 miles).
