3 bed detached house for sale

Island Wall, Whitstable CT5

A detached three-bedroom house on Island Wall, 48 yards from the beach, with its own parking space behind gated entry. That's a rare combination in this part of Whitstable. It sits in Shipwrights Lee, a quiet mews-style courtyard a short walk from the harbour and the town centre.

The sitting room is the heart of the house: Nearly 16ft square, with a log burner. A separate dining room opens through French doors onto the garden. The kitchen runs to over 15ft, with fitted units and white goods included, and there is a cloakroom off the hall.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom has its own en-suite shower room. There is a second bedroom of over 15ft, a third bedroom that works equally well as a single or a study, and a family bathroom with a shower over the bath.

Outside, the enclosed courtyard garden has decking for sitting out, with a gate through to the parking area, which is secured by double gates.

Whitstable station is 17 minutes' walk, with trains to London St Pancras in around 1.5 hours. Equally suited to a permanent home or a weekend base by the sea.

Total floor area: 793 sq ft. Freehold. Council Tax Band D. EPC D. Estate charge: £20 pa
