Brickworks says


This venerable six-bedroom Regency house in Ramsgate was designed by the pioneering female architect Mary Townley, and it clearly reflects her vision. The building, set over five storeys, proudly wears its Ionic influences: Pillars, capitals, and pediments embellish the terrace, while stucco details trace the lower floors with understated grandeur.

Inside, the current owners have sympathetically revealed the structure's soul rather than reinvented it, preserving and restoring many original features. Every surface tells a story - the worn flagstones, gently lime-waxed floorboards, and the fanlight above the front door that has witnessed nearly two centuries of comings and goings. The tone is gentle and luminous. It's wabi-sabi with impeccable manners.

The welcoming kitchen is spacious, with ample storage and a vast kitchen island. The adjoining diner opens to the courtyard garden through French doors. Even the laundry/utility room exudes charm, with built-in pine cupboards revealing simple beauty.

Each floor of the house has a distinct feel. The sizeable main bedroom, with its original fireplace, large windows, and fitted wardrobes, is paired with a lush bathroom with a copper bath, a walk-in shower finished in Carrara marble, and another original fireplace. Upstairs, high-ceilinged reception rooms and a balcony with Channel views provide the ideal retreat for afternoon tea or a relaxing sundowner, while the cosy bedrooms on the top floor exude charm and offer stunning views over the historic town and the sea.

Ramsgate itself hums with creative energy: Studios tucked behind Georgian facades, sea air thick with ideas. There’s a sense that you can put down roots and take a breath - and this home, with its lasting grace and gentle patina, feels like the place to do just that.
The owners say


The house is a comfortable, functional, and nourishing home for our family and a wonderful place to host friends. It is ideally situated, being just a short walk from the beach, the historic Royal Harbour and marina, Waitrose, and town amenities, including a leisure centre and numerous restaurants and bars.

We are surrounded by a remarkable and welcoming community. There is a constant flow of events in town, driven by a dynamic group of creatives. Over the years, the house has been our dedicated, passionate project, and we have enjoyed transforming it into a tranquil and calm home, abundant in light with harmonious, flowing interiors.

Recent work:
The current owners stripped the home back to its bare bones and redecorated it, with a respectful regard for the building's history and original purpose as a single-occupancy residence. The plumbing was entirely renewed in 2016, and the central heating system was renewed in 2017 with reclaimed cast iron radiators. The house underwent a complete electrical rewiring in 2019, with a separate lighting circuit added for table and floor lamps.

The bow windows have been restored using finer Regency glazing bars, and the original six panes on the central sashes were reinstated. Similarly, the dormer windows were reinstated with historically accurate six-pane sashes, which coincided with a complete rebuild of the roof in 2015. The stucco façade of the building has also been extensively restored and precisely recreated to match the original design.

Getting around:
Ramsgate Railway Station is about a mile away, offering regular services to London, Canterbury, and Margate. Several bus stops are nearby, providing frequent routes across Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Margate, and other parts of Thanet, making it easy to travel locally for work, school, or leisure.

Onward plans:
The current owners are moving abroad and have already found their next home. As such, they’re able to sell chain-free.

Anything else:
Throughout the home’s renovations, particular attention has been paid to the materials used to ensure historical accuracy while also allowing for breathability. For example, all the renders and stuccoes were recreated using hydraulic lime or Roman cement, as best suited to the restoration, and painted with breathable, historically accurate linseed oil paints. The lower-ground floor was stripped back to brickwork, rendered in lime, and then painted with natural, breathable paints.
