Full Description: Situated in the very heart of the medieval town of Sandwich, this beautifully renovated Grade II listed townhouse presents a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful period home that seamlessly blends historic charm with contemporary living. Currently operating as a successful and lucrative Airbnb, the property is offered to the market chain-free and provides exceptionally versatile accommodation arranged over three floors. Thoughtfully restored and finished to an outstanding standard throughout, the property retains a wealth of period features while incorporating high-quality modern fixtures and fittings, making it equally well suited as an elegant private residence or an income-generating hospitality business.<br /><br />The ground floor is accessed directly from New Street into a welcoming central entrance hall, where the space beneath the staircase has been cleverly utilised as a practical home office area or additional storage. The principal reception room is a bright dual-aspect living space centred around an attractive feature fireplace, complemented by bespoke cabinetry and display shelving set within the alcoves. Designer radiators and traditional plantation shutters further enhance the room, creating a wonderful balance between period character and contemporary refinement. To the rear, the stunning kitchen and dining area has been thoughtfully designed around a classic Shaker-style aesthetic, featuring framed cabinetry, oak block work surfaces, integrated appliances including a double oven, induction hob and dishwasher, together with stable doors opening onto the courtyard garden. The adjoining dining area is arranged around an exposed masonry chimney breast and benefits from a bespoke breakfast bar finished to complement the kitchen, creating a sociable and inviting space ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.<br /><br />The first floor continues the impressive standard of presentation and is arranged from a central landing. The principal bedroom is an elegant and generously proportioned double room, flooded with natural light from dual windows and complemented by high ceilings and extensive floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes. A further double bedroom on this floor is currently utilised as an additional reception room and home office, demonstrating the flexibility of the accommodation. Completing the first floor is a beautifully appointed four-piece family bathroom, finished with a roll-top bath, separate shower enclosure and carefully selected traditional-style fittings that perfectly complement the property's period character.<br /><br />The second floor provides two further generous double bedrooms, both beautifully presented and enjoying the same meticulous attention to detail found throughout the home. The comprehensive renovation undertaken by the current owners has successfully combined sympathetic restoration with contemporary design, creating interiors that feel both timeless and highly functional while remaining true to the heritage of this distinguished period property.<br /><br />Externally, the private rear courtyard garden provides a delightful extension of the living accommodation. Enclosed by traditional masonry walls, the courtyard enjoys a sunny aspect and has been thoughtfully landscaped with raised flower beds, attractive seating areas and gated rear access onto New Street. Offering a rare degree of privacy for such a central location, it provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing in peaceful surroundings.<br /><br /><b>Situation</b> - New Street is widely regarded as one of Sandwich's most desirable addresses, positioned within the heart of this historic Cinque Port town and surrounded by an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, public houses and boutique shops.
