This impressive residence is the ultimate in contemporary luxury, coupled with Edwardian elegance and character and has been painstakingly renovated and extended.

The rear door opens into a large boot room and the inner hallway with antique stained glass doors to a study and access to the awe-inspiring, light and bright 40ft family room.

This has reclaimed pine herringbone flooring, Accoya wood windows and French doors to the rear terrace, a large lantern skylight framing the dining area and a Carrara marble fireplace with a log burner in the seating area.

The vaulted ceiling kitchen includes bespoke units with oak worktops housing various appliances, a spacious pantry and a large utility/cloakroom with access to the terrace.

On the first floor there is a fascinating family bathroom and two double bedrooms, including one with a cast iron fireplace and a door to a balcony and the first bedroom with a luxurious bathroom.

A large fitted dressing room and access to the front balcony. The second floor has two double bedrooms with built in shelves and a trendy bathroom.

What the Owner says: We bought this property in 2021 because we loved the light and the sea views and, as owners of a property on the North Foreland Estate, we are key holders to its private beach.

We have completely renovated and extended the house using reclaimed and natural materials and restoring the remaining features such as Edwardian fireplaces upstairs, cornicing and ceiling roses.

The roof was totally rebuilt and the windows and front balcony restored.

We repaired the coving, skirting boards and the floor tiles while the pine parquet flooring that flows throughout most of the ground floor was reclaimed from a castle in East Sussex.

We extended into the second floor, created the orangery, landscaped the garden and added the heated swimming pool and patio areas.

We are not far from the town centre with independent shops, bars and restaurants, beautiful beaches and sports clubs including bowls, tennis, rugby and cricket as well as the North Foreland golf club.

There is a theatre and a cinema and annual events as well as excellent private and grammar schools and the station where the fast trains can whisk you to London in under an hour and a half.
