Subject to an undisclosed Reserve Price
Occupying the ground floor of a handsome period building, this beautifully presented apartment offers a wonderful blend of character, space and convenience. There is a versatile conservatory offering additional living space and you can enjoy effortless outdoor living with the secluded, low maintenance garden. There is no need to worry about the car as there is a private car port and driveway providing excellent parking.
Situated on Hythe's prestigious hillside, the property enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining within easy reach of the town's charming streets, vibrant amenities and picturesque coastline. It is a short walk from the village green at Saltwood with its well regarded public house, newsagents and Hide & Fox Mitchelin star restaurant which also has a 3 aa rosette rating.
Hythe High Street is within reasonable walking distance with its range of interesting shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafes, together with 4 supermarkets and doctors and dentists surgeries, etc. The attractive, unspoilt seafront and picturesque Royal Military canal are only a little further and there are a variety of sports and leisure facilities in the vicinity, including 2 golf courses, cricket, bowls, squash and tennis clubs and the Hotel Imperial leisure centre.
The property is also conveniently situated for access to St Augustines Primary School, Saltwood Primary School, Hythe Bay Primary School and Brockhill Park Performing Arts College. The larger town of Folkestone is around 6 miles away and the Cathedral City of Canterbury is around 16 miles away.
The area is fortunate in having particularly good communication links with a mainline railway station in Saltwood and Westenhanger and access to junction 11 of the M20 is around 3.5 miles away. The high speed rail link service to Stratford and St Pancras is available from Folkestone west and Folkestone central stations.

This method of auction requires both parties to complete the transaction within 56 days of the draft contract for sale being received by the buyers solicitor. This additional time allows buyers to proceed with mortgage finance (subject to lending criteria, affordability and survey).

The Reservation Fee is paid in addition to purchase price and will be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property in the calculation for stamp duty liability.
Buyers will be required to go through an identification verification process with iamsold and provide proof of how the purchase would be funded.
This property has a Buyer Information Pack which is a collection of documents in relation to the property.
