Description
Situated on the seafront with nothing but the promenade and the golden sands between you and the endless blue, this home isn’t just a rare find - it’s a unique sanctuary where the sea breeze is your constant companion and Margate's sunrises and sunsets are part of your daily panorama. With direct access from a private gate to the promenade, the beach becomes an extension of your garden, inviting you to step into a world where coastal charm meets timeless tranquility.
The ground level hosts a splendid living room with windows on three elevations for sea, bay and garden views with access to the rear garden. There’s also a dining room to the front - both rooms frame the sea like a living painting, a fully fitted kitchen, a cloakroom/ WC, bedroom 7 and gym room also with external access to the garden.
The ascent to the upper floors reveals six bedrooms, each with its own view of the coast and sea. Two of these rooms command particular attention - the first is the main bedroom with a bay window and awe-inspiring views that stretch out to Margate harbour and Westbrook Bay. Also, the corner bedroom with a dual aspect provides non-stop interest in all directions. There’s a bathroom, WC, separate shower, storage and a door that leads to a fire escape that serves as a rear entrance to the building. The rear entrance to two rooms, WC and shower and storage can be used as an annexe and separated from the rest of the building by a locked internal door.
To the lower ground floor level there is a two-roomed cellar which is tanked and was previously used as utility rooms. Subject to the relevant consents there may be scope to expand this cellar to create a larger basement level to the property. There’s also a large loft for additional storage.
Outside, the side patio and garden is a hidden alcove for relaxation and views of the seascape sunsets, while the residents' exclusive lawn becomes the perfect stage for al fresco dining against the backdrop of the sea.
This enclave of ten Beach Houses benefits from a private drive and nearby cul-de-sac parking, creating an intimate community within the vibrant pulse of Margate. From here, you’re a mere stroll from award-winning sands, cultural touchstones like Dreamland and the Turner Art Gallery, and the promise of easy commuting to London with direct and high-speed rail links. The locale is bursting with superb restaurants, shops, schools, bars, theatres, and entertainment options to enrich your life.
After many years of cherished memories, the owner passes on this beacon of coastal living. It stands not just as a remarkable home but as a canvas for your commute, holidays, and every dream in between. With no onward chain, this is more than an invitation - it's an opportunity to embrace a lifestyle unbound. We encourage you to experience it firsthand through an internal inspection and discover why this sought-after property won’t just meet, but exceed your expectations.

OWNERS INSIGHT -
“For more than 25 years, I have used this seaside paradise home as a Peace and Relaxation Retreat Centre. I am only selling due to retirement. But I shall live nearby as I will always love this beauty. To be able to feel sand beneath your toes within seconds whenever you want to is very special. To wake up each morning and see Turneresque sunrise skies, or sit on the front patio and watch the sun go down while enjoying a drink at the end of the day, is something you will always remember.
“Maybe that's why most guests over the years have called this, “Heaven-by-the-Sea”. Indeed, the house both inside and outside is very special, healing and relaxing, either as your permanent home, a commuting home, or the ultimate holiday retreat.
“Margate has gone through a considerable renaissance in recent years including the rejuvenation of the Old Town with its plethora of galleries, individual shops, restaurants and bars, the advent of the Turner Contemporary and the reopening of Dreamland, so there is plenty to do whatever your age and interests. It still has the award-winning Margate Main Sands but we also have the lovely and more peaceful Westbrook Bay that is even closer. Yet you can be in Central London in around an hour and a half with high speed trains.”
