About this property
The Harbour Retreat - Four Bedroom House, Sleeps 10
A spacious detached luxury property, situated in the conservation area of Whitstable, it is the ideal choice for families or groups, with several restaurants and local pubs at the end of the road. There is a working harbour with a fish market, takeaway stalls and boat trips and a celebrated Oyster Festival every July. There is also a vibrant music and arts scene. The beach is gently shelving, making it ideal for families, and offers water sports hire during the summer months. Cyclists can enjoy a bike ride along the Crab and Winkle Way or ride along the coast to Herne Bay. For walkers, there are many footpaths to explore along the Kent coastline. Further afield is the historic city of Canterbury (8.4 miles) with independent shopping and its world-famous Cathedral, and Faversham, with its romantic creek and bustling market (8.5 miles).
The property boasts a vaulted full height hallway with French doors at the end with a sofa and armchair, making this area bright and airy and a perfect spot to sit and relax. The entire house has been tastefully furnished with great attention to detail, with painted panelling in the sitting room, two large comfortable velvet sofas and a Smart TV with French doors to the garden. The open plan kitchen dining room is spacious and light with floor to ceiling windows, having comfortable seating to enjoy a morning coffee. The breakfast bar has high stools and the kitchen is fully fitted and well equipped for enjoying home cooking. There is a dining table which extends with 10 chairs, perfect for catching up after a day out. There is a separate utility room and a study with a desk. On the ground floor, there is a bedroom with a king-size bed and a convenient shower room next door. The first floor landing has dual aspect views down to the entrance hallway. On this floor, you will find three more bedrooms, all with king-size beds. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room and there is also a family bathroom with a free-standing bath and separate shower. All bedrooms have hanging rails and full-length mirrors.
The enclosed garden is an extension to the house, with French doors from the kitchen, hallway and sitting room. There is outside furniture for dining and relaxing and a BBQ for al fresco dining.
