Detached house for sale in Woodnesborough Road, Sandwich CT13

The Property
A wonderful opportunity to own an outstanding, unique, and individually designed family home just a few minutes’ walk from the heart of Sandwich. For those who love the character and charm of an older property but also appreciate the benefits of a newly built home, Braeside may be exactly what you are looking for.

Designed by the current owner-occupier and built by a well-regarded local construction company in 2016, the property still benefits from the remainder of a 10 year NHBC warranty.

Although Braeside is very close to Sandwich town centre, it is set in a quiet location, tucked away from passing traffic and feels private and secluded. Open countryside walks are virtually on the doorstep and Sandwich’s well-known and beautiful “Rope Walk” is little more than a minute away by foot. The Co-op supermarket is also conveniently located within a few minutes’ walk.

This is an exceptional house, thoughtfully designed and finished with high quality materials and craftsmanship. The owner's vision was to create a unique home with traditional character and charm, but with modern lifestyles firmly in mind. There is a lovely and practical “flow” to the layout of the house and it was designed to take full advantage of the southerly facing aspect which brings a light and airy feel to the home, with the main rooms having double or triple aspects.

Braeside offers an enviable style of living. The generously proportioned open-plan kitchen/dining/family room is a sociable space with French doors opening out onto the sunny lower patio. The sitting room has a wood burning stove for cosy winter nights, and level threshold bi-fold doors seamlessly connect the inside to the outside. The spacious master bedroom, with its high ceiling, split level entrance, en-suite, and ducted air-conditioning for hot summer nights, is the ultimate in luxury. The house also offers a choice of versatile spaces for home working, hobbies, teenage dens or occasional bedrooms.

The property has gas-fired under-floor heating to the ground floor, hard-wired data sockets throughout the house, and zoned garden/driveway lighting. There is also a very useful storage room in the converted attic, and a custom-designed shed provides ample storage for bicycles, golf clubs, garden equipment and tools, and also incorporates a convenient log store.

Recently redecorated throughout, Braeside comes to the market in what can only be described as pristine condition inside and out and is offered with no onward chain.

Outside
The garden has a magical quality derived from well-designed split level landscaping, raised beds and thoughtful planting. It offers a choice of two patios for entertaining and relaxing, one of which provides some natural shade on hot days. There is also a rectangular lawn, perfect for summer ball games.

There is a bespoke, well-insulated garden room (currently used as an office) and a deceptively spacious and versatile storage shed.

Location

Regarded by many as the jewel in the East Kent Coast, Sandwich is a beautiful and thriving medieval market town with much to offer.

The river Stour provides a gorgeous setting for relaxation with several quayside bars and restaurants to enjoy. For boating enthusiasts, the river takes you out into Sandwich bay and beyond, and for those who prefer to keep their feet on dry land, follow the river footpath down to Royal St. George’s golf course and the glorious beach beyond.

Sandwich town itself is a maze of lovely olde-world streets with many shops, bars and restaurants open throughout the year. There are good schools for all ages, and on the outskirts of the town there is a leisure/sports centre and even an aqua park.
Many weekend events are held in the town during the summer months such as the Folk and Ale festival and the 40’s weekend, usually accompanied by live street music, market stalls scattered throughout the town and quay, and pop-up places to eat and drink. It’s a truly great place to visit and even better, to live.

Golfers will enjoy the many fantastic golf courses in the area, and the countryside around Sandwich provides numerous walks and hikes. There are too many great things to do in Sandwich to include them all here, but if you haven’t visited before, you really must!

Sandwich has an extensive medical centre in the centre of the town and a railway station from where you can travel to London in around 90 minutes. There are also excellent bus links to Canterbury and other towns along the coast.
