Property description
This impressive circa 1830's family home is a prime example of a bygone era and still retains many of its original features. The high ceilings, the stunning fireplaces in most of the rooms and the beautiful floor to ceiling sash windows flooding the rooms with natural light.
This wonderful family home is huge inside and even the largest of families will not be found wanting more space. As expected, all of the bedrooms are large doubles and the living areas, which are all well proportioned, are set over five floors, offering versatile living accommodation.
The walled, lawned garden is just as impressive in size. Secluded by trees, filled with lots of colour and variety of mature shrubs taking your imagination far out into the countryside. There is also a hidden court yard to front, off the family room, lovely in the summer months with the French doors wide open.
For those of you unfamiliar with the area, Windmill Hill is a conservation area that is surrounded by beautiful period homes and small streets, full of character, making you feel as if you have stepped back in time. The parkland at the top of Windmill Hill offers breathtaking, far reaching views. The Neighbourhood Association regularly organises festivals, fetes and jazz bands to entertain you and your family in the summer months.
It is hard to believe that Gravesend town centre and the river front is on your doorstep, with its railway now benefitting from the high speed service whisking you into London in just twenty minutes.
What the Owner says:
We did not just buy a house, on Clarence Place, we invested in the traditional conservation area of Windmill Hill. From the house Windmill Hill spreads out like a green oasis and is a view that we have never tired of. For us the classic elegance of late Georgian architecture was the major consideration in buying the house. It is a great family home with plenty of room for growing children who take up a lot of space with toys.
The open plan kitchen/breakfast area and family room in the basement makes an ideal family area and our teenagers often enjoyed time with the friends without disturbing Mum and Dad with their music
Our home as created many happy memories but it is now time for others to enjoy its pleasures.
