About
Occupying a sought-after position on Sandgate Hill, this impressive three-storey, three bedroom maisonette offers a chance to truly embrace seaside living.
Broad, direct sea views stretch to the horizon, while wooded parkland sits behind - it’s two minutes to the beach, two minutes to the woods.
Renovated by the current owners with both comfort and entertaining in mind, the high-ceilinged Victorian charm has been retained while contemporary touches offer a more modern living style.
Stepping up from the pavement to your private entrance there are outbuildings, ideal for sheltering beach gear and bicycles.
A compact entrance hall gives space for shoes and coats, leading directly to the period staircase which spirals up between the floors.
The hall on the first floor leads to the communal parts of the property – living room, bathroom, kitchen and dining room.
The kitchen and dining room are linked but distinct, offering light-drenched open-plan living which can be tailored to suit your needs.
The large living room at the front of the property revels in direct sunlight for much of the day, and sweeping views across the bay from both inside and outside on the large wooden-balustraded balcony.
On the second floor, the master bedroom shares the day-long sun, with its own balcony and even more breathtaking views.
Two further bedrooms are complimented by under-eaves cupboards which provide surprising amounts of storage.
The maisonette further benefits from an exceptional 950+ year lease and 50% share of freehold, providing long-term security and peace of mind.
Renovations by the current owners include a complete rewiring, a reimagined bathroom, extensive but sympathetic double-glazing and many other practical updates.
Ideally located just a short stroll from Sandgate’s vibrant seafront, independent cafés, restaurants and coastal paths, and within easy reach of the Folkestone Harbour Arm and High-Speed rail services to London, this home offers the perfect balance of relaxed seaside living and excellent connectivity.
