Marine Drive, Broadstairs, Kent

This unique detached and potentially multi-generational property nestles on a generous 0.2999 of an acre plot. It is approached along a private road and accessed through large automatic wrought iron entrance gates that open onto a block paved frontage where you can park numerous vehicles. With its cathedral style pointed windows and glass balconies plus an attractive covered entrance porch and contemporary front door, the house has great external appeal.

The lobby has an oak staircase, oak flooring that flows through much of the property and glazed double doors to the hall. The dual aspect sitting room includes a fireplace, doors to the terrace and double doors to the dining room with access to the kitchen that has Shaker style units. There is a double bedroom with an en suite bath/shower room, walk-in wardrobe and patio doors to the terrace, a plant room and a large study with patio doors to the driveway.

Part or all of the ground floor could become a separate apartment as the first floor includes a superb 41.3ft kitchen/family area that consists of a contemporary kitchen with breakfast bar as well as a seating and dining area with access to front and rear balconies. The cathedral style windows on the large landing offer wonderful views and leads to the family bathroom and three double bedrooms including one with patio doors to the rear balcony and external spiral staircase and the main bedroom with its wet room and bifold doors to front balcony and rear Juliet balcony, overlooking the pool and garden.

The easy to maintain rear garden includes a wraparound terrace, a large lawn, sub-tropical trees and shrubs, a heated swimming pool with a cantilevered ‘roof,' as well as a summerhouse and a very large detached outbuilding currently used as a gym. There are 32 solar panels, high speed broadband, Sonos ceiling speakers, Hive, remote control shutters and remote control front gate access.

What the Owner says:

We have loved living here and have enjoyed updating the property to make it a modern family space upstairs and redesigning the garden to be simple to maintain. It is wonderful to have such amazing views; it was walking up to the first floor landing and seeing the panoramic sea view for the first time and feeling the sense of space it gives you that completely sold the property to us. However we feel it is time to start a new chapter in our lives and hope new owners will enjoy everything available in this unique property.

It is within walking distance of the North Foreland Golf club, Kingsgate and Joss Bays and, for anyone who would like a drink or a meal without having to take the car out, there is the Botany Bay hotel or the Captain Digby restaurant. A regular bus service travels around Thanet on the Loop and there is a useful convenience store nearby. The centre of the delightful Victorian seaside resort of Broadstairs is only a five minute drive with its mainline station and the high speed rail service that can whisk you to St Pancras in under an hour and a half. The town also has a wide variety of individual shops, bars and restaurants as well as the renowned Viking Bay. There are also a number of annual events such as Folk Week, the Dickens Festival and the Food Fair and also excellent education facilities with Outstanding primary and grammar schools as well as first class private schools in the vicinity.
