4 bed detached house for sale

High Street, Minster, Ramsgate CT12

We’re delighted to present a home with deep roots in Minster’s rich history.

Dating back to 1704, this detached cottage has stood for over 300 years, carrying with it layers of story and soul. Set in Minster — once regarded as the ancient capital of Thanet — it offers the perfect backdrop for a property of such character.

Step inside and you’ll immediately feel its heritage. Low beamed ceilings, traditional latched doors, quirky cupboards, hidden nooks, and a central staircase all contribute to its timeless personality. Yet unlike many period homes, this property is not listed, giving you the rare freedom to modernise and reimagine the space while preserving its historic charm.

The ground floor features generous living areas, with two additional rooms currently used as a study and an office — easily adaptable to suit your lifestyle. The kitchen, thoughtfully divided into two sections, provides plenty of scope for creative redesign, and French doors open seamlessly into the garden.

Upstairs unfolds across two floors, offering four bedrooms. Two benefit from en-suite bathrooms, complemented by a further shower room on the ground floor. At the very top, tucked beneath the eaves, lies a long and atmospheric bedroom that runs the full length of the house — a truly unique room.

The garden is enclosed by tall trees and layered shrubs, creating a private, almost secret haven — the perfect escape from the outside world.

This is a home brimming with opportunity: A chance to blend modern living with centuries of character, to reinvent while honouring its heritage. It’s a property that needs to be walked through, experienced, and felt.
