House For Sale £1,250,000
North Foreland Avenue, Broadstairs, Kent

Full description

From the moment the impressive solid wood front gates open, you will to begin appreciate the welcoming feel of this delightful family home, high up on the North Foreland Estate. The first things you notice are the warm herringbone bricks on the upper walls of the house and the garage as well as the circular Moongate leading to the back garden together with the arched porch and charming front door and this will make you realise this house has something special to offer.

Once inside the attractive entrance hall you are immediately drawn to the 'hub of the household,' the large and contemporary fitted kitchen/breakfast/dining room with its trendy two way fireplace, bi folding doors to the upper terrace and porcelain tiles on the floor. There is a range cooker, American fridge freezer, dishwasher and wine cooler. It leads to a charming and cosy family room with a real fire, oak flooring and double glass doors to the impressive indoor swimming pool and indoor terrace. This has windows overlooking the lovely rear garden and a veritable wall of french doors to the lower terrace as well as a very useful wet room.

The elegant sitting room is adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast/dining room and includes the two way fireplace while just inside the front door is a cloakroom and good sized study/5th bedroom. This is very useful if you work from home and have business visitors as they don't need to go into the private parts of the house. There is also a good sized utility room with an additional built in oven and a range of white goods that are only about six months old.

At the top of the wide staircase is a spacious galleried landing with a charming study area and views to the lighthouse. Off the landing is a very trendy family bathroom with a stand alone oval shaped bath, separate shower and mirrored cupboards and four double bedrooms. These include the master with mirrored wardrobes and a large en suite bathroom incorporating a corner bath and separate shower as well as a guest room with en suite facilities.

Outside the secluded rear garden includes the lower terrace for outdoor entertaining, a large lawn that is ideal for the kids and pets to run around in, some lovely old specimen trees, flower and shrub borders, a large garden shed and views across to the sea. At the front of the house is a double garage and a driveway providing plenty of off road parking as well as a good sized lawn and a high stone wall offering privacy and security.

What the Owner says:

“We moved here some 28 years ago and have thoroughly enjoyed raising our children in this lovely family home. However, we now feel it is time to downsize. Over the years we have updated the house with the new kitchen/dining room and new bathrooms and created a muted colour scheme so it is just ready for a new family to move in and do nothing more than install their furniture and put the kettle on.
It has been a wonderful place for youngsters and we have held numerous kids parties here and always seemed to have a house full of children. We thoroughly enjoy entertaining whether it is swimming parties, dinners or barbecues so we have made sure the house is designed for those who love cooking and catering for friends and family. It is also a very safe place for pets as well as children. The North Foreland Estate is a quiet and peaceful area, not far to the town centre and the station and it is only a very short stroll to the clifftop. For security purposes there is CCTV surveillance at both entrances to the Estate and all residents have a key to access the '39 steps' leading down to the beach and which inspired the famous 1915 John Buchan novel of the same name.
Broadstairs is a delightful place to live with beautiful beaches and country walks right on our doorstep. It is very quiet yet we are only a short distance from the centre of town, while the renowned North Foreland golf course is on our doorstep. As well as our private beach there is also Joss Bay with its surf school w
