4 bed detached house for sale

Preston Parade, Whitstable, Kent CT5

To take advantage of uninterrupted sea views the front of this stunning three storey marine residence is virtually all glass. It was imaginatively designed by a construction specialist for his own use and built in 2009 to the highest standard and would make a wonderful permanent home or an excellent holiday and weekend retreat. It is located along a quiet private road adjacent to the sea and is approached via a resin driveway leading to the integral garage and the contemporary front door.

The hallway includes a cloakroom and internal access to the garage, while the superb open plan dual aspect living space is the centrepiece of this home. It includes a spacious dining area adjacent to full height windows overlooking the sea, a sophisticated kitchen with black units housing up market built in appliances and a breakfast bar plus a good sized sitting area with space for a fireplace, close to six bi-fold doors. The tiled flooring continues through the bi-fold doors onto the terrace while an inner hall leads to a utility room, a spacious study with fitted shelving, understairs storage and stairs to the upper floors.

The galleried landing leads to a gorgeous lounge with a wall of full height windows offering superb sea views and a door to the large balcony where you can enjoy a panoramic vista as far as Essex. There is a family bathroom and three double bedrooms including one with an en-suite shower room and a walk-in wardrobe and another featuring a walk-in dressing room/wardrobe, full height windows and French doors to the balcony. On the second floor you will find the amazing main bedroom incorporating two sets of trapezoid windows and French doors to Juliette balconies, a charming seating area and a bedroom where you enjoy the views from your bed.

Outside the enclosed rear garden includes the tiled terrace, a decked patio with a hot tub and a lawn leading to a pergola covered patio. There is a large workshop/outbuilding, a side passage and gate to the driveway.

What the Owner says:
We spent 18 months building our dream home and have been delighted with the results. We love the location and Whitstable with its original harbour, individual shops, bars and excellent restaurants and a station where the fast train to St Pancras takes an hour and a quarter. There are excellent medical facilities and various primary schools including the Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed rated Outstanding by Ofsted. Sports facilities include bowls, tennis, the Whitstable and Seasalter Golf Club, Chestfield Golf Club and the Whitstable Yacht Club. Canterbury is about not far with its historical buildings, high street stores, individual shops, bars and restaurants. There are also theatres, three universities, grammar and public schools and Canterbury West station, where the high speed train to St Pancras takes less than an hour.
