Laleham Road, Margate, CT9 3QB

This sunny end of terrace is a real treat, an eye catching family home on the corner of Laleham Road. Big Mediterranean energy in the middle of residential Margate. It’s got curb appeal for miles. Literally. You can spot it from B&Q. It’s a 3 bedroom house with tonnes of light, cosy and airy by turns. There are homey but stylish touches throughout, like windows kitted out with shutters top and bottom. Not a net curtain in sight. On the ground floor, there’s a comfortable living room with double aspect windows, a smartly renovated kitchen with extra storage, and a bright family room that flows out onto the backyard. A recently installed downstairs loo is a real lifesaver. On the first floor, the main bedroom is so generous it can fit a super king and still feel big, and again benefits from a double aspect. The other 2 bedrooms are decent sized too, just right for kids or visitors or a home office, or all three. The bathroom uses its compact space to the max, but we’ll be honest, it’s waiting for someone to reimagine its potential. Perhaps that’s you. The zero effort backyard gets sun all afternoon and there’s a bonus area with heaps of possibilities: a giant shed, off street parking, a home working space. The sky’s the limit. Harder to describe are the surprising views out over the fields and to the nearby windmill, which lend a sense of open space so welcome in a busy town. Catch the evening light right and Margate’s famous technicolour sunsets make the whole house glow pink. It’s something special to see. Ideally located within walking distance to both the Old Town and Walpole Bay, it’s in the catchment for some great primary schools and the community gardens are right on your doorstep. Maybe you’ll take on an allotment. Last but not least, it’s a 10 minute stroll to the increasingly famous Northdown Road high street, named one of Time Magazine’s coolest neighbourhoods in 2025. And, more importantly, there’s a Tesco. This is a house that fits family life, a home for homebodies, and for those who want to look up just before they walk in and think “hell yeah.’
