This enchanting property is enviably situated in what is widely considered to be one of Hythe‘s most exclusive and sought after locations. Cliff Road is a private road, which has recently been resurfaced and from where some wonderful views over the town and of the sea can be enjoyed.

The accommodation, which is of particularly comfortable proportions, comprises a welcoming entrance hall leading to an elegant sitting room with an attractive fireplace, study leading to a pretty conservatory uniting the house with the gardens, a well fitted, open plan kitchen dining room and a cloakroom. On the first floor there are three particularly generous double bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom and a separate shower room, all three bedrooms boasting wonderful views over Hythe and of the sea.

The garden to the rear of Maryland Cottage is stunning. Having been thoughtfully planted with a great deal of consideration for year round interest, it incorporates a wonderfully secluded terrace, the ideal position in which to relax and dine alfresco, above which is a pretty summerhouse, the ideal vantage point from where to enjoy the views of the sea. The rest of the garden is laid to a generous expanse of lawn with other specimen plants of interest.
