Gloucester Avenue, Margate, Kent, CT9

Gloucester House, Palm Bay, Cliftonville

An exceptional example of refined coastal living, Gloucester House is a distinguished four bedroom detached residence set along one of Palm Bay’s most prestigious avenues. Dating back to the 1920s, this handsome home stands among the earliest properties built in the area, effortlessly blending its original character with a meticulously executed contemporary renovation.

Behind its striking façade, the property unfolds with an immediate sense of space and quality. A generous entrance hall forms a central hub, connecting the principal living spaces and setting the tone for the elegant interiors beyond. To the front, a beautifully proportioned living room enjoys a bay aspect, creating a warm and inviting retreat separate from the main entertaining areas.

The true focal point of the home lies to the rear, where a spectacular open plan kitchen, dining and family space spans the width of the property. Designed for modern living, this impressive room offers both scale and style, with clearly defined zones for cooking, dining and relaxing. The bespoke kitchen is fitted with high quality cabinetry, quartz work surfaces and a full complement of integrated AEG appliances, alongside a statement Rangemaster cooker and sleek remote controlled extractor. A walk in larder adds practicality, while expansive glazing and access to the garden ensure the space is flooded with natural light.

Further ground floor accommodation includes a contemporary cloakroom, separate utility and plant areas, a useful store and internal access to the attached garage, which also benefits from rear access.

Upstairs, the first floor provides four well balanced bedrooms arranged around a central landing. The principal bedroom enjoys a generous footprint with a bay window, while the remaining rooms offer flexibility for family living, guests or home working. A beautifully appointed family bathroom serves the accommodation, complete with a freestanding bath, modern vanity unit and elegant finishes.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a private and versatile outdoor space, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. A detached garden room, fully equipped with power, lighting and internet connectivity, offers excellent potential as a home office, studio or leisure space. To the front, a substantial driveway provides ample off street parking and leads to the garage.

Positioned just moments from the seafront and within easy reach of local amenities, Gloucester House offers an enviable lifestyle opportunity, combining period charm, high specification interiors and a prime coastal setting. A truly turn key home of rare quality.
