"The house is in a wonderful location because of the stunning views. It has been a fascinating project renovating this lovely property and we hope the next family will be able to take advantage of everything we has down to create a contemporary home suitable for modern day living. The garden has always been a relaxing place to unwind and the only sound we can hear is the birds tweeting in the trees.
River is a friendly village with the River Douro at its heart surrounded by the parks adjacent to Kearsney Abbey. The primary school is one of the best with an Oustanding Ofsted report and for older children there are excellent grammar and private schools in and around Dover. River has three pubs including the Railway Bell ‘gastropub’, a post office, convenience stores, florist and a pharmacy but it is only a five minute drive to a large Tescos and other well known retail stores. There are numerous country walks you can enjoy and the local nature reserve offers...
Perched high on the hillside with stunning views across the North Downs stretching as far as the eye can see is the delightful High Grace House in River on the outskirts of Dover. This fascinating property has been beautifully renovated and is in show house condition just waiting for new owners to move in and enjoy all the facilities available. At the same time it is a blank canvas so they have the opportunity to create a very individual home.
From the moment you walk up the front steps to the porch you will want to see what lies beyond. Once inside you can experience the light and spacious ambience that envelopes the ground floor. The entire living space flows from area to area with ceramic tiles covering the floors from the kitchen area at one end of the house to the fireplace in the impressive lounge area at the other.
The contemporary kitchen area includes a built in oven and hob as well as a dishwasher and fridge freezer. It is open plan to the attractive dining area with patio doors to the terrace so on warm summer days you can wander outside with your drinks or coffee. Whereas you can enjoy sitting around the charming fireplace with its log burning stove on a cold winter’s evening in the lounge area. Upstairs off the galleried landing you will find the family bathroom and four double bedrooms including the master with its en suite bathroom as well as a viewing gallery where you can revel in the panoramic vista in front of you.
Outside the large patio is just the place for a barbecue and if the weather is not too warm you can enjoy sitting in the attractive summer house. There are a number of seating areas around the garden, so you can see the views from differing places and follow the sun all day. Around the lawn there are a selection of mature trees, shrubs and flower borders and there is plenty of off road parking as the house is approached via a gated driveway that leads to a double garage and double carport as well as block paved areas.
