Architecture & Interior
This Grade II* listed Georgian home, built in the 1830s for high-ranking naval officers during the Napoleonic era, boasts 4,500 square feet of architectural splendour, including seven spacious bedrooms and multiple dressing rooms. Its yellow stock brick façade, adorned with shuttered box sash windows and a grand pilastered porch, stands proudly behind wrought iron railings, hinting at the treasures within.
Stepping inside is like entering a Jane Austen novel, and the current owner has painstakingly curated interiors that pay homage to the home's Georgian roots. From four-poster beds to ornate marble fireplaces and even custom-made mahogany toilet seats, every detail has been considered, while the lime-plastered basement kitchen and authentic Georgian colour palette transport you to a bygone era.
While historical charm abounds, modern comforts are never far away. Recent updates to plumbing and electrics, along with careful cornice repairs, give this remarkable home a strong foundation for the future.
Outside
A generous 220-foot garden offers a serene retreat, accessible through back doors or a side entrance. As day turns to evening, the changing light creates scenes reminiscent of a Turner painting, which, in the words of the current owner, makes it "a wonderful place to just be."
In The Neighbourhood
Nestled on the northern coast of Kent, this remarkable piece of British naval history is part of the prestigious Dockyard Terrace on the Isle of Sheppey. The site’s history stretches back to the 1660s when Samuel Pepys, the renowned diarist and clerk of the Navy Board, established the original docks that bustled with naval activity for three centuries.
Today, as the Isle of Sheppey experiences a renaissance, heritage enthusiasts and commuters have the opportunity to be custodians of British history while enjoying the comforts of contemporary living in an up-and-coming area of Kent.
Transport & Connections
Sheerness-on-Sea train station, a mere five-minute walk away, connects to Sittingbourne for direct routes to London Victoria and King's Cross, with journey times of 90 and 80 minutes respectively
