Belmont House, Ramsgate

Set within the sought-after gated development of Westcliff Park, Belmont House offers a rare opportunity to purchase a beautifully presented first floor apartment with direct sea views, generous private grounds and allocated parking.

The apartment is positioned along Pegwell Road, close to the Western Esplanade, with Pegwell Bay, Ramsgate Royal Harbour and scenic coastal walks all within easy reach. The setting offers a great balance of privacy, space and coastal living, while still being conveniently placed for Ramsgate town and local amenities.

Belmont House sits within approximately 4.5 acres of well-maintained private gardens and woodland, giving the development a peaceful and established feel. The building itself has an impressive communal entrance and staircase, with lift access available to the first floor.

The property also has an interesting historic connection, with Belmont House reputedly having hosted Princess Victoria before she became Queen. This heritage is further marked by the royal crest, formally granted by the Lord Chamberlain and installed on the apartment's balcony in 2022.

Internally, the apartment has been finished to a high standard throughout. The spacious lounge opens directly onto a full-width balcony through French doors, making the most of the sea views across Pegwell Bay. The balcony spans the frontage of the apartment and can also be accessed from one of the bedrooms, creating a strong connection between the living space and the coastal setting.

The kitchen is modern and well appointed, fitted with an Umbermaster kitchen, NEF Appliances. Quooker tap and Bear Grylls water filter. There are two double bedrooms that are very generous in size, including a main bedroom with en-suite facilities, and another with direct sea views to wake up to, next to the family bathroom. The ensuite has been finished with quality fittings including underfloor heating, an Aqualiser shower unit, bidet WC and feature skirting lighting.

The property also comes with allocated parking, along with additional visitor parking within the gated development.

Belmont House is a Grade II listed building, recognised for its historic and architectural interest. The listing helps preserve the character and features of the building, so any future alterations may require the appropriate consents. Buyers should seek confirmation through their solicitor regarding the listing and any permissions relevant to the apartment.

With its direct sea views, private gated setting, impressive grounds and historic connection to Princess Victoria, this is a distinctive coastal apartment in one of Ramsgate's most attractive locations.

Identification checks

In the event that a prospective buyer or buyers successfully have an offer accepted on a property that VSL has listed, it will be necessary to undergo a comprehensive identification check. This procedure is meticulously conducted to fulfil our legal obligations as stipulated by Anti Money Laundering Regulations (AML).


To facilitate this essential requirement, we have engaged the services of a specialised third-party provider, Lifetime Legal, to meticulously verify the identity of the individuals involved. The fee associated with these identity checks amounts to £60, inclusive of VAT, per purchase. This fee is due in advance and is directly remitted to Lifetime Legal upon the mutual acceptance of an offer, before the issuance of a sales memorandum.


It is important to note that this charge is non-refundable under any circumstances. This measure is in place to ensure strict compliance with legal regulations and to uphold the integrity of our property transactions.


*Please be advised that calls may be recorded and/or monitored to enhance our training programs and ensure compliance with data protection regulations.


At VSL, we are committed to upholding the terms of any existing Sole, Multi, or Sole Selling Rights Agreement that may be in effect. As a matter of policy, we will refrain from actively marketing your property until such an agreement has either reached its natural expiration or been officially terminated. This approach is taken to ensure full adherence to contractual obligations.


It is imperative that the terms and conditions of any prior Agency Agreement are carefully reviewed and taken into consideration. Failure to do so could potentially result in the unwarranted obligation to pay dual commission fees. We prioritise transparency and ethical practices in all our dealings to safeguard the interests of our clients.
