Bliss by the beach

Address: Marine Terrace, Whitstable Price: £1.65m Agent: Woodward and Bishopp

Like the idea of watching the sunset at the beach with a drink in your hand and the sea breeze ruffling your hair? Then this four-bedroom home could be calling to you.

The three-storey property sits alongside Whitstable beach, opposite the famous Old Neptune pub. Perched on the shingle just off Marine Terrace, the ‘Neppy’ is one of the town’s most-visited watering holes.

It’s also one of only a handful of pubs in the UK where you can enjoy a cold drink right on the beach.

If the location - which is not only a stone’s throw from the pub and the beach, but is also just a few minutes’ walk from the charming town centre - isn’t quite enough, the house itself is sure to grab your attention.

The 3,000 sq ft property stretches across three floors and features four bedrooms, including a master bedroom with en suite, a reception room with panoramic sea views, and a basement workshop.

The house also has a unique observation tower, where you can impress your guests with stunning views over the beach.

This one-of-a-kind property was built to a specific design 30 years ago, and is now on the market for the very first time for an impressive £1.65m.

The hefty price is hardly surprising when you consider its prime location in this loveable tourist trap, not to mention the delightful outdoor space in and around the property.

If you don’t feel like going for a walk along the beach but still want to enjoy the fresh air, the spacious terraced garden that’s hidden just behind Whitstable’s sea wall, offers a great spot for secluded sunbathing and gardening. There is also a sea-facing balcony overlooking the garden - yet another perfect place to capture those spectacular views.

Who needs to go on holiday when you’ve got paradise at home? l
