About this home
A stunning example of contemporary architecture, situated in a prominent sea-facing position on one of Whitstable's most sought after private roads, with uninterrupted views across Whitstable Bay and access to Seasalter Beach.
Modernist-inspired in design, the house features an asymmetrical façade of clean lines and extensive glazing, filling the immaculately presented interior with natural light.
The substantial accommodation totals approximately 2832 sq ft (263 sq m) (with a further 309 sq ft (28.5 sq m) of balcony space) and is finished to an exacting standard, with high specification fixtures and fittings throughout. The ground floor is arranged to provide an entrance hall with a cantilevered staircase rising three floors beneath a large roof light, a kitchen/dining room fitted with a bespoke kitchen and low-profile sliding doors opening to the garden, an open-plan living area, a utility room, a fully fitted cinema room, a study, a double bedroom with a stylish en-suite shower room, and a cloakroom.
The first floor comprises a spacious landing, three double bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a sitting room which uses floor-to-ceiling windows to perfectly frame the coastal outlook. The second floor is occupied by the principal bedroom suite which incorporates a bespoke walk-through dressing area, luxurious en-suite shower room and a private sea-facing terrace.
The south-facing garden has been smartly landscaped to include a granite stone terrace beneath a substantial pergola with electronically operated louvered roof, blinds, and heating, creating the perfect setting for entertaining. To the front of the house a white stone gravel driveway provides off-street parking.
