Glen Hill Cottage is the perfect blend of coastal living and countryside charm. Nestled just 400 metres from the unspoiled Walmer beach and surrounded by scenic nature walks, the property offers a unique opportunity to own a beautifully maintained, character filled home in a truly exceptional location. This charming Victorian era property, finished in a timeless New England style with weatherboarding, painted shutters and decorative bargeboards, stands as a secluded gem that rarely comes to market.
Set in a secluded yet highly convenient position, the home sits within thoughtfully landscaped gardens that offer complete privacy, making the most of its sunny, unoverlooked outdoor space. Winding cobbled paths guide you through an array of tranquil seating areas, perfect for soaking up the sun, enjoying a morning coffee or entertaining guests amidst the peaceful surroundings. Whether hosting a summer garden party or celebrating a cosy Christmas by the fire, this is a home for all seasons. The versatile accommodation spans over 2,000 sq ft across two light filled floors, offering a wealth of character and comfort. Period features include exposed brickwork, timber beams, bay windows, original fireplaces and a charming covered veranda, each adding warmth and charm to the elegant living spaces. From the generous entrance hall with cloakroom and cellar access, the home flows beautifully through a double aspect drawing room with French doors opening onto the veranda. A step down leads to the inviting sitting room with double doors to garden access, an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding greenery. The den room connects seamlessly to the farmhouse style kitchen/diner, complete with handmade units, a butler sink, and a classic two oven gas fired Aga. A utility room and second cloakroom add further practicality.
Upstairs, the principal suite enjoys double aspect views, a generous en suite bathroom and an adjoining dressing room, or optional fourth bedroom. Two additional double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and separate cloakroom complete the first floor.
Lovingly maintained by its current owners, who are reluctantly relocating, this home has been a joy to live in and is ready to offer its next chapter to someone seeking peace, charm and access to both coast and countryside. Glen Hill Cottage is a rare find - a home that delivers on lifestyle, space and beauty in equal measure.
OUTSIDE
The beautifully maintained gardens envelop the house on three sides. A cobbled path gently leads you around the weatherboarded façade from the driveway to the kitchen door and past the covered verandah. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn bounded with a variety of mature shrubs, borders and trees and with a selection of seating areas from which to enjoy this tranquil spot. A graveled driveway provides off road parking for 3-4 vehicles as well as a double timber framed car barn.
