Property of the Season

Knightriders
Guide Price £675,000

Occupying an exceptional position in the centre of Sandwich, beside St Clement’s church on Knightrider Street, Knightriders came to the market for the first time since its construction in the 1960s, having been built and occupied by the same family ever since. Largely un-altered, this substantial home stands in a large plot and includes a separate walled garden in addition to the principal garden beside the house and drive. 

Outbuildings include a substantial garage and store suitable for conversion to an annex and a separate pair of garages. Offered in the spring at a guide of £1.2m, there was prompt demand from those readily identifying the potential for modernisation and improvement in such a perfect setting, within easy reach of the town centre, schools, station and Sandwich Bay. The new owners took possession in July. First 48 hours of marketing.

This incredibly positive response was highly successful, and a sale was agreed on the next working day. The sale has now completed, and the new owners are excited to start their next chapter with this unique and characterful home.

Fairfield

Nestled in the heart of the highly coveted Archery Square, this enchanting Victorian villa exudes timeless elegance and architectural splendour. Steeped in history, this distinguished residence came to the market for the first time since the late 1940’s and offered a perfect blend of period charm and modern comfort with the interior seamlessly combining a sense of grandeur with functionality. Externally the property featured an idyllic south facing lawned garden, complete with mature trees to the boundaries creating a truly tranquil ambience.

Offered to the market in the Autumn of 2023 at an asking price of £1,300,000, this highly desirable address, renowned for its commanding period buildings overlooking the historic Walmer Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, lies just 250 yards from the seafront. Following much interest a sale was agreed and completion took place in May 2024.
