Miles & Barr are delighted to market this unique apartment which is positioned
in a historic building perched on the top of the cliff overlooking the channel
and across to France. The elevated private balcony offers some of the best
views in the area from sun rise to sun set whilst being above the road for
privacy. "London House" was built just before the First World War and there is
more of its history to follow. The building has been recently converted into
three apartments by the current owner who has created three immaculate homes
with new electrics, new plumbing and boiler. Finished to the highest of
standards with brand new kitchen & bathrooms presented in turn key condition.
The property is accessed by its own private entrance on the side with a unique
stone staircase which leads to the main living accommodation on the first
floor. The accommodation offers two large bedrooms, both with sea views - the
master comes with a balcony and en - suite bathroom. There is a large living
room at the front which has French doors to provide access onto the large
front terrace with space for sun loungers, tables & chairs, all overlooking
the Channel. To the side of the property and protected by large gates is the
off street parking for two. The property is a landmark atop the the famous
White Cliffs and would be a great holiday home or quiet home by the sea.
London House History: Construction of London House began just before the First
World War, of York stone marble and concrete. It is widely believed that a
German spy used the property to record Royal Naval shipping in the channel.
During the second world war, it was requisitioned and became RAF London House
to provide early warning of air attacks and the V1 rockets. The personnel,
upwards of 30, comprised various nationalities and up to 1998, the current
owner hosted an annual reunion at the property. Furthermore, the soe used the
property as a command centre to send spies to the Pas - de - Calais from nearby
Hawkinge airfield.

**Location**
Capel - Le - Ferne is a peaceful seaside village sitting on top the famous White
Cliffs. It offers two good pubs, village shop, easy transport links as well as
stunning walks & scenery. The village offers beautiful views from Dunkirk to
Dungeness. Fast becoming a sought after place to be, Folkestone has seen much
regeneration over the past few years, with much more planned going forward,
especially surrounding the town centre and Harbour. Folkestone has a large
array of shops, boutiques and restaurants as well as many hotels and tourist
attractions. Folkestone is fortunate to have two High Speed Rail links to
