What the Owner says:

This has been a wonderful family home for the past 40 years but it is time to downsize although it will be a great wrench to leave this lovely place. Over the years we have enjoyed modernising the house it but still retaining all the period features. It is a great place for entertaining and we have held many parties and family get togethers including having a marquee in the garden for weddings.
It is a very convenient location as we are close to the Thanet Way, while the post office and doctor's surgery is just round the corner. We are not far from The Theatre in the Park and Herne Nursery and Primary school rated Outstanding by Ofsted, while Herne Bay includes a good secondary school with grammar and first class private schools in Canterbury, Faversham and the Thanet towns.
Herne Bay includes individual shops, restaurants, salons, the seafront and pier, a cinema and theatre, veterinary practices and a weekly market. For water sport enthusiasts there is sailing, angling and jet skiing while golfing aficionados can play at the Whitstable and Seasalter or the Chestfield golf clubs.
