Their are a number of special schools in the area as well as the respected Secondary School of Hartsdown Academy (rated Good by Ofsted), an 8 minute drive (2 miles).
I knew instantly this was the home for me - it was a mess - stripped of its elegance - and I knew I could bring it back to life through careful restoration and respect . The previous owner even said that I was the one to do it and sold it to me first viewing. Prices Avenue is a community and reminiscent of 1950s England where everyone looks out for everyone but respects their privacy . So rare these days.
