Granville Road, Walmer, Deal, Kent, CT14

A beautifully refurbished family home in sought after location, a short walk from the beach and Walmer Castle.


A refined and well balanced family home, this impressive, detached residence was built in the 1920's by the highly regarded Denne family builders for their own occupation. Consequently it offers particularly generous proportions, high ceilings and an imposing yet elegant presence.

Set within a plot measuring just shy of a third of an acre, the property is located in a sought after road, just a short stroll from the beach. The house has been thoughtfully modernised by the current owners, successfully combining contemporary living with a wealth of retained period features.

A welcoming entrance hall, beautifully finished with original oak panelling, immediately sets the tone for the quality of accommodation on offer. Original internal doors, cabinetry and picture rails continue throughout, lending warmth and architectural integrity that is rarely found alongside such high quality modern upgrades.

The ground floor provides a superb arrangement of both formal and informal living space. A formal drawing room features panelled walls, an original fireplace and a deep bay window overlooking the front garden, creating a refined and comfortable reception space. In addition, there is a separate dining room, dual aspect in design, with Crittall style French doors opening directly onto the garden, complemented by a Chesney’s woodburning stove set within a marble surround.

At the heart of the home lies a beautifully executed kitchen/dining space, designed with modern family life in mind. This sociable room is finished in a clean, contemporary style, featuring a further set of Heritage Crittall style French doors opening onto the garden, alongside a newly fitted kitchen with quartz worktops and integrated dishwasher. The space flows seamlessly through to a generous utility/laundry room, providing excellent practicality.

Further ground floor accommodation includes a separate study, along with the addition of a smart shower room, boot room and a newly installed guest WC, finished with Fired Earth tiles.

Upstairs, a handsome oak staircase rises past a large picture window to a spacious and airy landing.Four generous double bedrooms radiate from this central space, two of which are dual aspect. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a brass framed washstand with open shelving and basin. The rear bedrooms enjoy particularly attractive views across the gardens and towards Marke Wood recreation ground beyond, adding a sense of openness and privacy. A well-appointed family bathroom and separate WC serve the bedrooms.

The improvements extend beyond aesthetics, with the installation of new box sash windows, upgraded electrics including a new fuse board, sockets and switches and replacement radiators, some in a traditional column style ensuring the house is as efficient as it is attractive.

Overall, this is a house that offers the best of both worlds: the charm and craftsmanship of its period origins, combined with the comfort, efficiency and layout expected of a modern home.
