Nightingale Place, Margate, Kent, CT9

A truly distinctive three bedroom, two bathroom character home forming part of Nightingale Place, the former Princess Mary’s Children’s Convalescence Hospital, originally built circa 1919. Beautifully blending its period heritage with sophisticated contemporary styling, this exceptional home offers an enviable combination of character, space and modern living.

The impressive open-plan kitchen/diner/living space is the stand out feature of the home, offering high ceilings, striking picture windows and beautifully restored original herringbone flooring. The bespoke, mid-century-inspired kitchen is particularly impressive, complete with a butler sink and stone worktops, creating a stylish yet highly practical space for everyday living and entertaining.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with bespoke built-in storage and direct access onto a large, wonderfully sunny balcony — an ideal spot for morning coffee or relaxing in the afternoon sun. A contemporary family bathroom completes the first floor.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The rear garden is directly accessed from the kitchen, opening onto a paved patio seating area before extending onto a lawned garden, providing a lovely private space for entertaining or simply enjoying the sunshine.

Adding to the appeal are two off-street parking spaces — a hugely desirable and increasingly rare feature in the area, quite literally like gold dust in Margate.

A home with genuine character, beautifully considered interiors and superb outside space, all within the unique setting of this historic former hospital development. Nightingale Place offers a wonderful opportunity to own a period property that feels both timeless and thoroughly contemporary.
