A modern and versatile property in an enviable coastal setting, with heated pool, lovely gardens and wonderful sea views.
Situated within White Cliffs Country, The Old Guard House occupies an enviable position in a hidden cove at St Margaret's Bay, which has, over the years been home to notable writers and playwrights, including Ian Fleming and Noel Coward. The property sits amidst beautifully established gardens and commands outstanding sea views.
The internal accommodation which offers the opportunity for some updating, is extremely adaptable and currently incorporates a self contained flat on the lower ground floor with sitting room, a fitted kitchen, bedroom and a bathroom.
Over the ground and first floors, the principal accommodation comprises three very well proportioned reception rooms, a southerly facing conservatory, a kitchen/breakfast room with cupboards and various appliances, a utility room and WC. Completing the accommodation are five bedrooms, a dressing room and two bathrooms.
The Old Guard House is approached through double wrought iron gates, with the drive leading to the garage and parking area. The gardens are delightful and feature gently sloping lawns, evergreen hedging and an array of shrubs and trees. The outdoor pool lies to the rear and is surrounded by paved terracing. Steps lead up and down to individual terraces from where the wonderful views can be enjoyed.
