Westgate Bay Avenue, Westgate-on-Sea

An utterly beautiful Victorian townhouse just yards from the seafront and covering an impressive 2976 sq ft (276 sq m) sprawling over four floors.
Sticklers for perfection and attention to detail, the owners have taken the property through meticulous restoration with the juxtaposition of classic Victorian grandeur and soft contemporary modernisation working in perfect harmony.
From the moment you step inside the opulent entrance hall with its high ceiling and intricate cornicing, the sheer amount of space on offer immediately becomes apparent. An abundance of period features are found throughout the house with original fireplaces, ceiling roses and cornicing.
The ground floor provides a generous lounge, a sitting room, a study and a cloakroom. A magnificent staircase which proves to be a real focal point rises to the incredibly spacious first floor. Here you will find a luxurious family bathroom, akin to a 5* hotel suite with stunning marblework, freestanding bath and 'His & Hers' basins set upon beautiful cabinetry whilst herringbone 'Karndean' flooring adds to the high end finish.
Here you will also find an elegant master bedroom, another double bedroom, dressing room, and a utility room.
The second floor is equally as spacious and impressive, providing a stunning shower room, separate WC, two additional double bedrooms and a single room.
The kitchen is found at lower ground floor level an opens out to the sunny south facing split level courtyard garden. The formal dining room, another double bedroom and downstairs shower room occupy this floor which covers 753 sq ft (70 sq m). This entire floor could easily be a completely self contained two bedroom annexe as it benefits from its own front door but also accessed via a staircase from the upper ground floor of the house.
Unrestricted parking is available on street at both the front and rear of the property.
Overall, a truly spectacular Victorian residence which has been meticulously renovated inside and out, preserving its historic charm and creating an elegant home which is ready to move into. Significant updates to note are a brand new roof and central heating system.
