2 bedroom semi-detached house

DESCRIPTION
The Gate Cottage is a most appealing property which is enviably situated in one of Hythe's most coveted locations from where it commands magnificent views over the town and of the sea. The property has been lovingly maintained and improved by the current owner and now offers attractively presented accommodation which is flooded with natural light as all of the principal rooms enjoy a southerly aspect and therefore, views of the sea.

The accommodation includes a welcoming entrance hall leading to the sitting room with beautiful views over Hythe and of the sea, a fitted kitchen open plan to the dining room, rear lobby with utility area and a cloakroom. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms both enjoying stunning views and a bathroom.

The property is approached from Cannongate Road where it benefits from a generously sized sigle garage. From here a path and steps meander downward through the tiered garden to the front of the house. Side access can be gained to the generous rear garden which enjoys a southerly aspect. It incorporates an expanse of lawn, terrace from where sea views can be enjoyed and a wealth ofplanting for year round interest.

For room sizes please refer to the floor plan.
