‘Every day lived here feels like a holiday’, that's the lasting impression the owners have of this delightful cottage. 'Whenever we announced we were due to go on holiday we had a stream of budding house sitters from amongst our friends anxious to stay here!'
No surprise as this cottage is close enough to walk to and from the station. Coffee shops line your stroll into the centre of Whitstable dotted amongst boutique shops, bakers, butchers, restaurants and pubs. The winding streets and lanes of Whitstable, many lined with weatherboarded homes create a charming environment that tugs on heartstrings and lures people to visit and to stay.
History, community, variety and seafood all loom large in conversations about the town. It straddles two worlds with fishing boats still plying their trade from the harbour, oysters (farmed here from Roman Times) still very evident as a mascot for the town and those twisting lanes and charming facades that lure artists. Modern life has provided stylish eateries, coffee houses and strolls along the seafront.
The town has been a popular destination for many from London and this weatherboarded cottage set within the conservation area provides a glimpse into the past and a doorway to the present.
Accommodation rises up through three floors with cubbyholes, nooks and spare doorway all adding a touch of charm. The stylish kitchen is something we loved at first sight and upstairs the owners carefully sourced a bath to fit the space available.
Each bedroom has a character of its own and the two reception rooms are equally special. Step out to an enclosed garden that is a blank canvas for you; keep it simple or engage with your inner horticulturalist!
Positioned here it is easy to see life without needing a car. 'Days can stretch by without using one' the owners say and they have even had momentary lapses trying to remember where they parked last when finally needing to use their car.
We're excited to show you around and look forward to your call.
