Full Description
Situation
Nestled within serene private gardens and lush woodland, The Old Vicarage stands as a striking example of architecturally designed excellence. Situated in the tranquil enclave of St George's Place, it enjoys a peaceful ambiance while being conveniently close to the village centre, which hosts a range of amenities. Nearby, the sea beckons with its sheltered beach and cliff top walks along the coastal path, all set amidst the protected expanse of National Trust Land. For broader options, the vibrant towns of Deal and Dover lie to the north and south respectively, boasting diverse shopping and leisure opportunities. Just over a mile away, the Martin Mill mainline railway station provides regular coastal services and swift connections to London St Pancras via high-speed links. Moreover, easy access to the southern motorway network further enhances the accessibility of this prime location.
The Property

There are two generous double bedrooms, including a principal bay windowed suite with an en-suite shower room and the added benefit of a walk-in wardrobe.
