‘The house has its own separate gated drive leading off the main at the front and steps at the end of the terrace lead down to a deck and lawn overlooking the Channel at the back.

‘It is a beautiful property in a great setting. From Kingsdown you can see France quite clearly.’

The property was built in early 1800s by wealthy farmer William Curling and his wife Elizabeth.

They generously donated large sums of money for the building of Kingsdown village church, rectory, village hall and school.

In 1934 the house and gardens became a seaside holiday village and in the 1990s the house was sold off separately and divided into four separate dwellings. Kingsdown Place is one of the larger of the four.
