What the Owner says:

It has taken us three years to lovingly create this very special calm and peaceful seaside home. We used the services of a well-respected local architect who has been involved in a number of properties in The Strand and had excellent trades people to convert our dream into reality.

The Strand includes an eclectic mix of shops and eateries and on the other side of the green there is the bandstand, a cycle lane to Deal, the Downs Sailing Club and the beach. We can walk into Deal with its wonderful independent shops and eateries, the famous pier and the Saturday market, while Tides swimming pool complex is not far away and fast trains from the station can whisk you to London in under an hour and a half.

For golfing enthusiasts there are the Kingsdown and Walmer and the Royal Cinque Ports golf clubs and also the championship course at Royal St George's as well as Princes, while other sports clubs include rugby, tennis and bowls. There are excellent educational facilities with two local primary schools and grammar schools available in Dover, Sandwich, Folkestone and Canterbury as well as private schools in Dover and Canterbury
