Set within the desirable village of River just outside Dover, sits this immaculate and unique family home. As you approach the property through the private gate, a sweeping drive takes you across the front of the house where you won’t fail to be impressed by its size and grandeur. Pretty gardens full of established trees provide a great sense of privacy.
Upon entering the spacious hall, which is the perfect open space for welcoming guests, you will see why this house is so unique. High Grace house has a very modern ambience due to its elegant décor, open spaces and many windows, flooding the property with light.
Beautiful luxurious tiles flow throughout the entire downstairs, linking the hall to the large kitchen diner and sitting room. There is a WC off the hall and a painted wooden staircase to the first floor.
The sitting room is a tranquil space enjoying fantastic views to the front over River and the north downs, to the side, Dover castle in the distance, and to the back, the delightful garden. With so many windows it’s a great room flooded with light all year round and provides a cosy hub with the log burner on cold winter nights.
When entering the kitchen from the hall you’ll be impressed by the size and just how much light is pouring in through the patio doors and double aspect windows. There’s plenty of room to add an island if you wished to make more use of the space as well as a large area for dining. Patio doors lead to the garden which is the perfect place for entertaining in warm weather and is a real sun trap.
On the first floor you’ll notice the unusual landing. A smaller space opens into a large ‘gallery’ landing with windows on both sides with amazing views to the front and the garden to the back. This space is really versatile, it could easily be used as a home office, dressing room, nursery, or could be made into a fifth bedroom as per its original use. It leads to the main bedroom, which is a great size, again flooded with light and has a good sized modern ensuite bathroom.
Three further double bedrooms and the family bathroom are also off the landing and all enjoy fantastic views and plenty of light.
To the outside, the pretty gardens wrap around the house, they’re relatively low maintenance and all trees and shrubs are well established, providing plenty of privacy. Two summer houses provide additional space to entertain perhaps or to use as little spaces of calm to settle with a book and enjoy the views that they’ve purposely been positioned to enjoy.
There are private gates both ends of the driveway which also allow access to the property next door but are owned by High Grace House. This adds further to the feeling of security and privacy.
The entire house is immaculate throughout and really is a blank canvas so it’s perfect for a new owner to move straight in and put their stamp on it to really make it their own.
This property really is one of a kind and can be best appreciated in person so booking a viewing at your earliest convenience is highly recommended.

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.
In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:
avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.
min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
