A spacious first floor 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom apartment set in an enviable position overlooking Sandwich Quay
Open plan kitchen/living room, further versatile internal room (presently used as a dining room), two bedrooms, two bathroom, cloakroom, secure entryphone system, lift and stairs, communal garden. EPC Rating: D
Situation
Positioned between The Quay and Upper Strand Street and located in one of the most favoured parts of the ancient town of Sandwich lies Gardners Quay, a handsome building elevated from the river and overlooking the quayside area, with its lovely bars and restaurants and riverside walks. The river Stour runs along one edge of the town and provides a beautiful backdrop to some of the public spaces with river trips etc. The surrounding roads are brimming with attractive beamed cottages forming part of the conservation area of this medieval Cinque Ports town. Sandwich has a good selection of basic and boutique shops including two supermarkets, post office, bank, and dispensing chemist. There are plenty of restaurants, pubs and cafes and good primary and secondary school choices. The high-speed train service runs to St Pancras from the local station. The championship golf courses along the nearby coastline are of world renown.
The Property
This well maintained conversion is in a sought after location and the beautifully tended communal gardens and internal spaces reflect the appeal the building commands. A secure entry phone system, staircases and a glazed passenger lift provide easy access to the light and airy communal first floor landing, leading to Apartment 8. Within lies bright and versatile accommodation of spacious proportions, set around a u-shaped hallway, which also incorporates a useful study/storage nook. The principal living space is open plan to the kitchen and enjoys Juliet French doors which overlook Sandwich Quay, a delightful feature which is also replicated in the two double bedrooms. A generous ensuite bathroom serves the principal bedroom, whilst a separate cloakroom is conveniently located off the main entrance hall. A further bathroom services the second bedroom and also incorporates a laundry facility. Finally, an additional and versatile internal room offers ample built in storage and is currently utilised as a separate dining room. Independent central heating with low maintenance electric in-line boiler and radiators.
