Situation

Prospect House is located on a country lane between New Romney and Lydd with only one close neighbour, and yet is in an easily accessible location for not only the south Kent & East Sussex coast including Hythe & Rye but also Ashford with the HS1 rail service to London and the M20 motorway. The Channel Tunnel is also an easy drive away as is Dover Port for access to Europe.

The House

Garden/Outside

The property is approached off the lane over a hard surface entrance drive providing parking for several cars. Beside this is a lawned area with shrubs and a gravel area with garden feature. To the rear of the house is a patio with small lawn to the rear of which is a further lawned area with shrub borders behind which is an opening to a vegetable garden with polytunnel.

Outbuildings

These are accessed from the garden or from the second driveway off Caldecot Lane and comprise:

1) Nissen Hut about 35’8 x 18’1

2) Garage/Workshop – about 24’8 x 13’3

3) Footings of Former Building – next to the Nissen Hut is the concrete base and part remains of a former building which has potential to be rebuilt, subject to planning.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on May 4, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 4, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
