Creighton House, 75, Strand Street, Kent, CT13 9HN

Creighton House is a handsome period property, offering extensive accommodation with a wealth of elegant original details throughout.

Set in a highly desirable street, the house dates from the late 18th century and features impressive brick elevations and tall sash windows, while inside high ceilings and original fireplaces sit alongside stylish modern fittings.

The accommodation is arranged across three beautifully appointed levels, with the ground floor offering two adjoining formal reception rooms in the sitting room and the dining room, which together stretch from the front to the rear of the home.

Both rooms have fireplaces, carpeted flooring and ceiling cornicing, with plenty of natural light from the windows to the front and rear.

The semi open-plan kitchen and breakfast room is similarly connected via an open archway, with wooden parquet flooring, a fireplace to the breakfast room and Shaker-style units in the kitchen, as well as a stainless-steel range cooker and a built-in wine cooler.

The utility room and the cellar provide additional storage and space for appliances. There are four well-presented double bedrooms on the first floor, three of which have built-in storage.

The first floor also has a family bathroom with an over-bath shower, plus a shared shower room.

Stairs continue to the second floor, where there are two further bedrooms, together with an office and a play room, both of which could be used as bedrooms if required.

The second floor also has a family bathroom and a dressing room with built-in wardrobes.

Outside, the property opens onto Strand Street at the front, with a gated entrance at the side for vehicles, which leads to a shared gravel parking area equipped with an EV charger.

The walled rear gardens are south-facing, welcoming plenty of sunlight throughout the day.

They include a sunny patio for al fresco dining, a summer house, a central area of lawn and well-stocked border beds with established shrubs, mature trees and various flowering perennials.

Creighton House sits in the Conservation Area at the heart of the ancient Cinque Port town of Sandwich, close to the River Stour and Gazen Salts Nature Reserve.

One of the finest medieval towns in England, Sandwich provides independent and high street shopping, pubs, restaurants, cafés and cultural attractions, together with a good range of primary and secondary schooling in both state and private sectors.

Nearby Deal and the shopping centre and cinema at Westwood Cross offer further amenities, while Dover and Canterbury both offer extensive facilities.

The area has three championship golf courses including 'The Open' course at Royal St. George’s. There is wonderful walking in all directions from the town, and lovely sandy beaches within easy reach.

Transport links are excellent: Sandwich and Thanet Parkway stations offer regular services to London, the A256 dual carriageway links to the A2/M2 and M20/A20 and the Channel Ports.
