Stunning Seafront Flat In The Very Sought After Sandgate Beachside Strip In Folkestone
Folkestone estate agents Your Key Move are delighted to bring to market this stunning sea front ground floor flat with a garage and off road parking. Position wise they don't come any better than this, located right opposite the Sandgate beach with elevated views out to sea. Also we must mention straight away that the whole flats interior has been refurbished to an extremely high standard at great expense, with new plumbing and cost well in excess of £50,000.
When you arrive you will see that the flat is perfectly situated, being just slightly set back and elevated above the Sandgate road. When you arrive and head round to the back of the flat to the main private ground floor level entrance, you will also see that it has its very own en-block garage and additional off street parking space. This is a fantastic addition as a lot of flats in this location don't benefit from having this luxury and is especially useful in the summer when family and friends wish to park up to enjoy the beach.
Inside the front door you walk into the nicely sized hallway, with two storage cupboards behind separate doors and further doors and corridor leading to the rest of the bedrooms. An immediate right turn takes you into the modern bathroom. Straight ahead a door takes you into the new fitted luxury kitchen, This kitchen definitely has the wow factor and benefits from a host of fitted luxury appliances like the new integral oven with induction hob, integral dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer, worktops and storage solutions. There are duel aspect windows giving plenty of light for rustling ups those gourmet meals.
Back into the hallway and a left will have taken you through into the stunning open plan lounge/dining room. This room has two windows on the far side but the jewel has to be the grand bespoke large window which looks out over the turquoise sea. This wonderful window opens up to allow you to have those unobstructed magical sea views with the outside fresh air inside. In the summer this really is something special but we really do recommend you appreciate it in person.
From the hallway you can also head left into a short corridor which has doors leading to both double bedrooms. The main double bedroom has large floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes.
