Situation
Number 26 forms one of several Victorian and Edwardian seaside villas which line the beach facing the seafront and built to maximise their view of the sea. Walmer seafront, with its two-mile pebble shore line, extends from Deal Castle to Walmer’s southern boundary, where it is overshadowed by the White Cliffs. A well-used promenade, cycle path and green separates these properties from the steeply shelved pebble beach where a multitude of informal recreational activities are enjoyed, not least with Downs Sailing Club nearby. Deal town centre to the north has a range of specialist shops and restaurants along with a growing cafe culture, the seafront pier, Castle and historic quarter. Rail services are well catered for with a high speed link to St Pancras International from Deal and Walmer along with access to the Cathedral city of Canterbury, approximately 16 mile distance, and links to the national motorway network.

The Property
The Penthouse is a beautifully presented top floor apartment boasting stunning views of the seafront as well as over the rooftops of Walmer and beyond. It is one of five apartments situated in a substantial semi-detached Victorian building originating from 1881, having undergone external redecoration and a new roof. The apartment occupies the upper top floor and is accessed via the front communal vestibule, with entryphone system, through to a grand galleried staircase incorporating original solid chestnut railings and handrails leading to all floors.  Upon entering, a stairwell leads to a light and airy landing through to a modern wet room whereby storage opportunities have been maximised and a modern efficient low energy electric heating system installed. An exquisite master bedroom with ample built in wardrobe space and spectacular glass domed skylight, adjoins the attractive living room  featuring front-facing window to maximise the breathtaking sea views. The living room features a picturesque reading nook by the window as well as exposed wooden beams which enhance the character of the space.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 21, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 21, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on May 20, 2015 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
