If a rural retreat with stunning sea views is your idea of heaven, then this fascinating property set in 1.18 acres of grounds in a unique position above the White Cliffs of Dover should be top of your list. It is definitely ‘far from the madding crowd' and includes beautiful gardens at the rear of the property that wind down to a lower track, creating your own version of the ‘Hanging Gardens of Babylon'.

Accessed along a cliff top track the early Edwardian chalet bungalow is approached along a communal drive. The main door provides access to a cloakroom, two shower rooms and the triple aspect main bedroom. There is another bedroom with a sculptured fireplace and a wash basin, a study with a cast iron fireplace and a child's playroom with steps to a kid's ‘hideaway' and a door to the triple aspect garden room. This has a large skylight, French doors to a terrace and superb views across the Channel.

The country style kitchen includes units with integrated and stand-alone appliances, while the large dual aspect dining room has wood flooring, an inglenook fireplace, a dresser and a spiral staircase to a delightful room, perfect as a lounge or private office with panoramic sea views. The charming sitting area has a log burner and a door to the conservatory that opens to a raised decked terrace.

The front garden is laid to lawn while the rear garden includes a large lawn, a fishpond, impressive mature trees and shrubs, a greenhouse and a charming, insulated outbuilding with electrics, lighting, a shower room and French doors to a terrace.

What the Owner says:
We have always loved living in this unique environment and will always retain our links to the area, however we now need to move nearer our family. St Margaret at Cliffe is a friendly village and includes a post office, village shop, bars and restaurants, a holiday park and stables while the primary school is rated Outstanding by Ofsted.
For regular commuters we are not far from Martin Mill and Dover for the mainline station and high speed rail to London and Dover and Folkestone for access to the Continent. We can walk down to St Margaret's Bay or stroll along to the Dover Patrol Memorial and there are also wonderful walks to the South Foreland Lighthouse – the first in the world to have electric light.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on March 15, 2024

    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 March 15, 2024

    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

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on October 14, 2022 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
