4 bed detached house for sale

Leicester Avenue, Cliftonville, Margate, Kent CT9

Only a stone's throw from the clifftop is this extended detached family home with a gated entrance leading to the garage and a large paved area for off road parking. The property has been beautifully modernised but still retains original features such as coved ceilings and ceiling roses, panelled doors, dado rails and a fireplace.

The sliding porch doors open into the hall with a storage cupboard, a cloakroom with laundry facilities and solid wood flooring that flows into a spacious family room/fifth bedroom. This is currently designed as a snooker room but could be a separate dining room, office or fifth bedroom.

A superb lounge includes a fireplace with an open fire and oak and glass bi-fold doors to the current dining room and, when these doors are pulled back, it provides an open plan space. In the dining room there are fitted bookshelves, a set of bi-fold doors to the rear terrace and a door to the contemporary kitchen/breakfast room. This includes a mix of black and white flat-fronted units with quartz worktops housing various appliances, a peninsular breakfast bar and French doors to the garden.

The modern staircase has an oak and glass balustrade and features full height windows on the half landing while the galleried landing, with its impressive chandelier, provides access to the contemporary family wet room and four double bedrooms. These include the second bedroom with fitted cupboards and an en suite shower and the main bedroom with a dressing area, mirrored wardrobes and a luxurious bathroom.

Outside there is a decked terrace, a splash pool and a summerhouse/office with solid flooring, lighting and electrics as well as a cloakroom. There is also a potting shed, greenhouse, raised vegetable beds and lawns interspersed with trees and shrubs.

What the Owner says:
We moved here about 13 years ago and want to stay in the area but need to downsize. We can stroll along the clifftop and beach or to the local shops while Margate includes The Turner Gallery, Dreamland, the Old Town with its independent shops and restaurants and a mainline station with trains that can whisk you to St Pancras in under an hour and a half.

There is also the Margate Football Club, an indoor and outdoor bowls club as well as a tennis and cricket club for sporting enthusiasts, while there are good local schools. Nearby Broadstairs and Ramsgate include excellent grammar and private schools and not far away is the Westwood Cross shopping centre and the Vue cinema complex and a casino.
