White Lodge is a substantial family home in Westbrook and benefits from stunning 180 degree sea views. The property has recently been refurbished with brand new kitchen and bathroom fittings. An entrance vestibule leads into a spacious wood-panelled entrance hall off which the principal rooms are accessed, with the sitting room and study both facing the front. The study is a lovely, light room with inset gas fire and a bay window provides excellent views. Similarly the sitting room also has an inset gas fire; it is a double aspect room again with sea views. From the sitting room, doors lead into the drawing room with stone mosaic flooring; adjoining this room is the conservatory leading out to the garden.

A separate door from the drawing room leads into the dining room which has entirely wood-panelled-walls; a large bay window overlooks the garden, at the end of which is the pool house. The kitchen/breakfast room has windows overlooking the garden, built-in wooden storage cupboards and work units, an electric oven and hob. There is a good size walk in larder/storage room. To one end of the kitchen a door leads to the utility room where there is space for a washing machine and tumble dryer etc, and from here a door leads out to the side of the garden. Additionally on the ground floor there is another WC, and plenty of under stairs storage.

The wood panelling continues up the stairs and a large window fills the landing with light. The master bedroom with en-suite bathroom is entered through large double wooden doors; it is a double aspect room with big windows overlooking the garden and to the side of the property. Bedroom 2 is a double aspect room with views of the garden and to the side. Bedroom 3 is again double aspect, with views over the bay and a door to a "Jack and Jill" bathroom. Bedroom 4 is a generous double bedroom again with wonderful views. Bedrooms 5 and 6 are entered through a separate door from the landing where there is also a further bathroom. All of the rooms have high ceilings, the large windows add an incredible amount of light into the house and the bathrooms have all been finished to a high standard.


* White Lodge is situated in the premier road in Westbrook, a seaside town on the Kent coast just to the west of Margate. Margate offers a good range of facilities together with those found at Westwood Cross shopping centre (4 miles). Further leisure, cultural and educational facilities can be found in both the harbour town of Ramsgate (5.5 miles) and the Cathedral City of Canterbury (14.5 miles).

* Margate station provides connecting services to London; the high speed link runs direct from Ramsgate station arriving in London St Pancras. The nearby A299 Thanet Way gives good access to the motorway network.

* There are frequent services to the Continent from Dover and Le Shuttle services from Folkestone. Eurostar services to the Continent are available from Ashford International.



White Lodge is approached by an in/out driveway with parking space for approximately 5 cars. There are two carports, one either side of the property. One of these continues through to the garage, above which is a room suitable for potential studio/storage space. There is a decent size garden with a pool house to one end; the pool itself is not currently in working order and does require some maintenance. A paved area adjacent to the pool could be used for outdoor entertaining or al fresco dining. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn bordered by seasonal plants and has a mature fig tree in one corner.
