If you can tear your eyes away from the gorgeous interiors of Helena Villa, you can take a look across the sea to France.

Priced at £785,000, the house at Temeraire Heights, Sandgate, is on the market with Champion and Co.

The split-level accommodation has four double bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms.

The elegant master suite has panoramic views of Hythe Bay and the English Channel as well as a dressing area and an en-suite bathroom.

There is underfloor heating throughout the house. The double-height sitting room has a woodburner set into a corner. It has double doors opening directly on to a south-west-facing terrace with sea views to France.

The ultra-modern open-plan kitchen is complemented by a range of quality fixtures and fittings to include an American-style fridge-freezer, an impressive central island and triple- aspect views out to sea.

The units are matt-finish driftwood, incorporating a pull-out larder unit, integrated dishwasher, two wine- coolers, two ovens, plate-warming drawer and integrated coffee machine.

The wrap-around garden is block-paved at the front. The remainder is laid to lawn with shrub borders and a 50ft decked terrace with sea views.
