Within two hundred feet of Whitstable Beach, this three storey town house forms part of a highly sought after terrace of classic mid-century modern design by local architect W.Michael Bishop in 1959, and built in 1960. The house enjoys an enviable position on Whitstable's prized Island Wall, a pleasant stroll from the bustling High Street with its diverse range of shops, bars and restaurants, and Whitstable mainline railway station is less than 1 mile distant.
The light, spacious and flexible accommodation has been extensively remodelled by the current owners and is presented in smart contemporary style throughout.
The upper ground floor is arranged to provide an entrance hall, a dual aspect sitting/dining room with views towards the sea, a kitchen with bespoke handmade fittings, and a large South facing balcony overlooking and providing access to the rear garden.
The first floor benefits from sea views to the front and sweeping views of the golf course to the rear, and comprises two double bedrooms, a study, and a stylish shower room. To the lower ground floor there is a large hallway with built-in storage and a utility space, two double bedrooms, a dressing room/bunk bedroom, and a smartly fitted bathroom. The property also benefits from photovoltaic solar panels which contribute towards the electricity supply.
Outside, the delightful South Easterly facing rear garden extends to 52ft (16m).
There is off street parking for a number of vehicles to the front and rear of the house, and a charging point for electric vehicles.
