House For Sale £799,995
Landscaped rear garden plus workshop/studio
Sussex Lodge is an attractive five bedroom detached period home sitting proudly on a generous plot in the ever desirable Cliffsend a few minutes walk to Pegwell Bay, the Nature Reserve, St Augustine's Golf Course and of course the replica Viking Ship. This family home boasts direct sea views with uninterrupted views of the bay and across to the French coastline.
This home is beautifully presented by the current vendors and offers generous and flexible living accommodation arranged over two floors. The property still has many of its period features such as bay windows, high skirting, panelled doors and fireplaces.
On the ground floor is an entrance porch, lounge and dining room both with wonderful sea views, family room with French doors leading out onto the garden, kitchen/breakfast room and a shower room.
On the first floor are five bedrooms, all the front bedrooms boasting stunning sea views, one of these front bedrooms can be used as the perfect home office, and a family bathroom.
Sussex Lodge features a wonderful landscaped rear garden with an Indian Sandstone patio, flower and shrub borders, a pond and waterfall as well as a decked seating area with a gazebo. There is also a workshop/studio to the rear ideal for anyone looking to work from home. To the front of the property is a Sandstone brick driveway, fitted with electric wrought iron gates, providing off street parking for several cars.
Ramsgate is situated on the southerly aspect of the Isle of Thanet and benefits from the country’s only Royal Harbour. The distinctive and beautiful harbour has a vibrant yachting community alongside some commercial activity. In recent years the Royal Harbour has seen many restaurants, cafes and bars emerge alongside quirky independent retail outlets, some utilising the arches on the quayside beneath Royal Parade. The town is enjoying something of a Renaissance with its large amount of Grade II Listed property, many set within elegant Regency squares, or overlooking the sea. The fortunes of the town have been hugely assisted by the addition of a high-speed rail link to London St. Pancras and Thanet Parkway station which is currently under construction and due to complete May 2023.
Our time at Sussex Lodge stretches back to when our children were small. It is a property that offers great versatility and adaptability. The easy access we have across the local area provides us with plenty to do and we love the community spirit in Cliffsend. There are many pleasant restaurants and pubs nearby where we often stop off after a beautiful clifftop walk or stroll on Pegwell Beach & Pegwell Nature Reserve both a few minutes walk from the house.
You immediately get a feel for the stature of this property from the outset as it is well set back from the road, with intercom wrought iron electric gates and fencing. We love the character of our home; the period features are visible from the outside and continue as you
set foot into the hallway. There is an abundance of flexible space with generously sized rooms, which make it both a welcoming family home and a great place to entertain. We have continued to update the house inside and out, having added an extension, a garage conversion and professionally landscaping the gardens.
The dining room, one of the sitting rooms and three of the bedrooms, one of which we use as an office/library, have magnificent sea views. The other two double bedrooms look onto our beautiful garden, meaning we can enjoy it both inside and out. There is plenty of space outside in the wrap around garden. We spend leisurely time in our gazebo as it is a spot where you can enjoy sunshine throughout the day and our large Indian sandstone terrace is a great space for entertaining family and friends.
We are making a move to be closer to our daughter and grandchildren, but we have loved everything about living here and we will miss our family home where we have made many happy memories.
