Description

This impressive detached residence sits on a generous double plot in a desirable cul-de-sac, offering picturesque views across the Channel towards France. Built in the late 1930s, Longforgan has remained within the same family since the 1960s. While it has been well cared for over the years, there is significant scope for modernization and personal updates to enhance its charm and functionality. The expansive garden also presents opportunities for extension or potentially developing an additional property, with previous planning permissions having been granted until 2010 (ref Dov/07/00005). Nestled in the village of St Margaret's at Cliffe, residents benefit from local amenities including a general store, post office, pharmacy, and a highly-rated primary school. Leisure options are plentiful with two pubs nearby, access to safe bathing spots along the coast, and scenic walks along National Trust cliffs. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate proximity to courses in Kingsdown and Deal. Just a few miles away lies Deal's vibrant town center, offering boutique shopping and dining experiences. Furthermore, excellent transport links connect you to Dover's Port and offer direct rail services to London and beyond. The property features multiple living spaces including a lounge with dual aspects showcasing stunning views, a conservatory that opens out into the garden, and a utility room for added convenience. The first floor accommodates four bedrooms—each with charming views—and essential bathroom facilities ready for updating according to modern preferences. Outside, ample parking is available alongside a garage equipped with light and power. This property represents an exciting opportunity for those looking to invest in renovation while enjoying an enviable location.
