A Landmark 1924 Residence | Exceptional Wraparound Plot | Five Bedrooms | Coastal Location

Believed to be one of the original homes built in this road in1924, this substantial five-bedroom detached residence occupies an impressive wraparound plot just a short stroll from the seafront. Rich in character and history, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that combines period charm, generous proportions and exciting potential.

From the moment you step inside, the scale of the accommodation is immediately apparent. At the heart of the home is an impressive 42ft open-plan kitchen and living area, beautifully centred around a striking marble island, creating the perfect space for modern family life and entertaining. In addition, there are three further reception rooms, including an elegant formal lounge and a grand dining room that flows effortlessly into the bright and spacious sun lounge overlooking the gardens. A contemporary ground floor shower room completes the downstairs accommodation.

Upstairs, the property offers five well-proportioned bedrooms together with a family bathroom. Throughout the home you'll discover many original features synonymous with homes of this era, including high ceilings and beautiful original fireplaces, all adding to the character and charm that makes this property so special.

Having already benefited from extensive renovation works, including a full rewire, new electrics throughout and comprehensive replastering, much of the hard work has already been completed. The property now offers the exciting opportunity for its next owners to add the finishing touches, modernise to their own taste and create a truly exceptional forever home without the expense and disruption of undertaking the major works.

Stepping outside, the gardens are simply breath-taking. Occupying an exceptional wraparound plot, they provide an abundance of space for families to enjoy, whilst offering endless opportunities for landscaping, entertaining or simply relaxing in complete privacy.

Adding something truly unique, the detached double garage has been transformed into an incredible entertainment venue. Fully equipped with its own bar, it provides the perfect setting for hosting family celebrations, parties and unforgettable evenings with friends.

Perfectly positioned in the highly desirable Palm Bay area of Margate, Avenue Gardens enjoys an enviable coastal setting just a short walk from Palm Bay's beautiful sandy beach and scenic clifftop walks. The property is also conveniently located for highly regarded schools, local shops, supermarkets, cafés and North down Park, whilst Margate's vibrant Old Town, Turner Contemporary, railway station and a wide range of restaurants and leisure facilities are all within easy reach.
