Tankerton Road, Tankerton, Whitstable, CT5

Nestled in a sought-after lifestyle location and just a short stroll from the seafront and local amenities, this substantial detached family home offers an exceptional blend of contemporary and coastal charm. The current owners have meticulously refurbished the first floor to a high specification featuring four generously sized bedrooms. Both the family bathroom and en-suite are exquisitely appointed with luxurious fittings, complemented by sleek microcement walls and floors that provide a crisp, modern aesthetic.
The ground floor layout begins with a welcoming reception hall leading to a substantial lounge. Here, a large bay window floods the room with natural light while a fireplace with a log-burning stove adds warmth and character. The contemporary cloakroom, also finished with microcement, enhances the home's cohesive design. The existing kitchen and spacious dining room, which also features a bay window, are adjacent to a large ground floor extension. This space presents an exciting opportunity to merge into the current layout allowing for the creation of a dream open-plan kitchen and family room. The proposed plans suggest transforming the dining room and front part of the side extension into this expansive space, complete with substantial patio doors that open onto the garden. The current kitchen could be converted into a guest bedroom or a fifth bedroom, with the rear part of the extension planned to include an en-suite, utility room and a home office. The home's central position is ideal being within easy walking distance of Tankerton's parade of shops, restaurants and cafes as well as the delightful Tankerton slopes and seafront. Regular bus services nearby provide easy access to the quaint Harbour Town of Whitstable known for its unique character, vibrant atmosphere and a delightful array of independent shops and eateries, located approximately ¾ of a mile away. The historic Cathedral City of Canterbury is also within reach, approximately 7.2 miles away. For commuters, Whitstable mainline railway station is conveniently situated about ¾ of a mile from the property and the well-regarded St Mary's Primary School is just 250 yards away. This home offers not only immediate comfort and luxury but also the exciting potential to further customize and expand making it an ideal choice for families looking to create their perfect coastal retreat.
