Detailed Description

Description
Manor Cottage enjoys an enviable situation set on the hillside high above the town, moments from the Sene Valley Golf Club, from where the property commands a magnificent south westerly aspect with views over the town, sweeping around the bay to Dungeness and the hills at Fairlight in the distance.

The house is a Potton house from their Heritage range and has been much improved for the owners including the installation of a superb new kitchen, contemporary bathrooms, new double glazed windows and redecoration throughout. The result is an exceptional property now offering beautifully presented and comfortably proportioned accommodation with each of the principal rooms enjoying sea views. There are also solar panels for hot water.

Manor Cottage is one of only four dwellings on this desirable cul-de-sac each of which was built in the grounds of Bassett House, a magnificent dwelling long since destroyed by fire but originally built for Lord Wakefield (Lord Mayor of London 1915-1916). Evidence of the grounds remains with a magnificent flight of steps and terraces incorporated within the gardens of Manor Cottage and providing the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy the views to sea.

For room sizes please refer to the floorplan.

There is a monthly farmers' market and various clubs and societies that welcome new members.

Sene Valley golf course is within only a short distance away and there are many pleasant country walks and bridle paths within easy reach.
