Overview
Treetops occupies a prominent position set back from Cannongate Road at a high point, thus benefitting from extensive views along the coastline and across the town of Hythe.
Built in 1922 in traditional Edwardian style and featuring generous sized reception rooms, sun loggia opening out onto a substantial paved terrace, extended kitchen with utility, 3 principal bedrooms with master en-suite and further family bathroom.
To the rear of the house a further annexe has been created just over 5 years ago, with open-plan living area having fitted kitchen, first floor double bedroom with additional shower en-suite, connected with internal door at first floor level to the main house.
Extensive gardens surround the property and although now a little overgrown feature a wealth of mature plants, fruit orchard and a large detached timber outbuilding. The grounds to the property undulate following the contours of the land which in turn makes for an interesting landscape with several vistas and shaded spots.
Previous planning permission was granted in 2018 for a substantial detached house to the rear of the plot under reference Y15/1245/SH & 20/0569/FH and although permission has now lapsed it is thought that interested parties could re-apply with their own interpretation of any proposed dwelling. Certainly, when considering neighbouring properties there appears to be scope to create a very special home in a very unique location.
Additionally, it is believed that to the front of the main house there may be further potential to build, fronting Cannongate Road.

The front garden is arranged as several terraces, being well planted. A large paved terrace provides generous seating area, having the benefit of far reaching views, at a high level to the front of the house.
The garden then extends to the side where the plot widens considerably as it stretches back. The land to the rear is not formally landscaped but does provide for an interesting mix of vegetable beds, planted shrubs, lawned areas and even a small orchard.
Directly to the rear section of the garden a large timber workshop outbuilding is positioned with double doors allowing vehicular access.
A further raised concrete driveway provides parking for at least 6 vehicles.
The entire plot is well screened on all sides to provide privacy.
