Located in the charming seaside town of Whitstable, Kent, this modern vacation home offers a delightful escape just 50 meters from the seafront and a minute's walk from essential amenities. Accommodating up to four guests, the property features two well-appointed bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a cozy patio garden, all while providing the convenience of three parking spaces. The contemporary furnishings and quality beds ensure a comfortable stay, with the master bedroom boasting a king-sized bed and an ensuite, while the second bedroom offers two single beds that can be combined into a super-king-sized option.
The house is designed with an 'upside-down' layout, placing the open-plan kitchen and living area on the upper level to take advantage of the abundant natural light. This arrangement, however, may not be suitable for those with mobility issues, as it requires navigating stairs. For families with small children, it is important to note the presence of two balconies and stairs within the property. The downstairs area features a spacious hall with two armchairs, providing an additional living space if needed.
Guests will find a wealth of amenities just steps away, including tennis courts, a micropub, beauty salons, a gym, and a local supermarket with a post office. A short 15-minute stroll along the seafront leads to the vibrant Whitstable town center, known for its picturesque working harbor, craft shops, galleries, and renowned seafood restaurants, especially those specializing in the famous Whitstable oysters. For those looking to explore further afield, a nearby bus stop offers convenient travel options to Whitstable, the historic town of Canterbury, and Herne Bay, while the Whitstable train station provides regular services to London in just over an hour.
In addition to its prime location, the area around the property is rich in natural beauty, with Tankerton Slopes and West Blean & Thornden Woods nearby. Local festivals, such as the classic car show and Oyster Festival food fair, are held at Tankerton Slopes, adding to the community's charm. For adventure seekers, opportunities for jet skiing, windsurfing, horse riding, and cycling are readily available, making this seaside retreat an ideal destination for both relaxation and exploration.
