5 bedroom house

DECEPTIVLEY LARGE AND VERSATILLE FAMILY HOME IN THE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER BUT RARLEY AVALIBLE, HISTORIC LOCATION OF SEA VIEW SQUARE
Miles and Barr are honoured to present to the market this charming, characterful, Victorian Cottage style family home, as one of two homes on this quaint, and always sought after, square location to have direct sea views. The Owners use the word 'Tardis' when describing property, and in our opinion even that does not do justice to just how much space is on offer in the beautiful home. The upstairs holds four generous sized bedrooms, with both a fitted shower room and bathroom on the level. The ground floor is currently comprised of sitting room with bay window, second reception room that has been utilised for several purposes including as a guest Bedroom, Dining room and work from home space. Towards the back of the property is the real heart of the home with the current owners using as a modern lounge/diner/kitchen, with all spaces open to each other the room is exceptionally light and airy, surrounded by the enchanting, enclosed courtyard gardens to both sides, of which you admire through the stunning original sash windows and French doors. The kitchen leads back to the utility room that also holds a downstairs cloakroom, right by another exit from the home into the beautiful garden. The outside space has been thoughtfully designed by the owners to provide a highly attractive, yet low maintenance place to escape to, with one courtyard getting the morning sun and the other being bathed in sunlight until the end of the day with the owners deciding to complete their slice of seaside heaven with a Five seater HotTub positioned perfectly to enjoy every minute of sun.

The property is thought to date around 1878 following the demolition of an old mill that occupied the site. Sea View Square was then developed and numbers 4, 5 and 6 were known as Saint Saviours Grange, Home of Rest for Women and Girls. The home was run by an order of nuns until the 1950's when they moved to a new Colt house built at the top of Mickleburgh Hill.
You will find Sea View Square within the Conservation Area just off the seafront at Central Parade and within close proximity of the fast 'up-and-coming' Herne Bay town centre with its variety of independent shops, schools, and mainstream supermarkets. The seafront has an array of period architecture ranging from Regency, Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian properties. Herne Bay is a popular coastal town benefiting from a range of local amenities including retail outlets and educational facilities. There are also a good range of leisure amenities including rowing, sailing and yacht clubs along with a swimming pool, theatre and cinema. The mainline railway station (approximately 1 mile distant) offers fast and frequent links to London (Victoria approximately 85mins) as well as the high speed service to London (St Pancras approximately 87mins). The town also offers excellent access to the A299 which gives access to the A2/ M2 motorway network. The picturesque town of Whitstable is only 5 miles distant which also enjoys a variety of shopping, educational and leisure amenities including sailing, water sports and bird watching, as well as the seafood restaurants for which it has become renowned. The City of Canterbury is approximately eight miles distant with its Cathedral, theatre and cultural amenities, as well as benefiting from excellent public and state schools.
