With direct beach access and its own boat space, any family would be immediately at home in this impressive five-bedroom early Victorian house.
Part of a small enclave of homes dating from the 1840s, Fleet House has Italianate terraced gardens, with private steps to the beach.
The Grade II listed semi-detached home is in an elevated spot on a quiet no through road leading to Lower Leas Coastal Park. Panoramic views of the English Channel are a great feature of the property.
Inside, there is well-proportioned accommodation, tall ceilings and sash windows typical of the era. The house is built over five floors.
The kitchen is on the lower ground floor and has a slate floor, a large range cooker and open fireplace. Opposite, is the dining room with wooden floorboards and French doors leading out to a terrace. On this floor there is an office, also with French doors to the terrace and a bathroom.
On the ground floor is a spectacular sitting room, which has floor to ceiling windows and access to a balcony with far reaching views of the garden, beach and sea beyond. There are internal wooden shutters, cornicing, ceiling rose, and fireplace with slate hearth. There is a library, a study with sea view and a cloakroom with Victorian fittings.
The five bedrooms, one with en-suite, are on the top three floors, as well as two family bathrooms.
