This property is a distinguished Tudor-style residence, once part of the historic grounds of Kingsgate Castle, occupying one of the most coveted cliff-top settings on the Kent coastline. With far-reaching sea views and the golden sands of Joss Bay and Kingsgate Bay moments away, it captures the essence of refined coastal living. Directly opposite, North Foreland Golf Course adds to the exclusivity and heritage of this remarkable location.<br/><br/>Built in 1928 by WW Martin and set on 0.3926 of an acre, the home has been thoughtfully extended while preserving its original character, herringbone wood block flooring, rich oak panelling, and a magnificent Inglenook fireplace anchoring the main reception room.<br/><br/>A welcoming porch leads into a generous hall and a beautifully arranged ground floor, including a double-aspect sitting room with Inglenook fireplace, an intimate oak-panelled family room, a study, cloakroom, utility room, and a stunning kitchen/breakfast room, an elegant modern extension with high-gloss cabinetry and integrated appliances.<br/><br/>Upstairs offers four well-appointed bedrooms, including a refined principal suite with en suite, a stylish family bathroom, and an impressive roof terrace with sweeping sea views—an ideal retreat for morning coffee or sunset moments.<br/><br/>The grounds provide exceptional privacy, with secluded lawns framed by mature trees, a tucked-away orangery, a charming terrace, and a beautifully crafted sunken garden perfect for gatherings. A carriage driveway with double gates creates a grand approach, leading to double and single garages with power and lighting.<p></p>What the Owner says:<br/>From the moment we arrived at this property, we knew the location was truly special,peaceful, coastal, and perfectly connected to everything we love about seaside living. Positioned along Joss Gap Road, the house sits just moments from the sea, where the sound of waves and fresh salt air shape daily life. Strolling to Joss Bay or wandering to the sheltered beauty of Kingsgate Bay has been one of our greatest joys, with sunrise walks, impromptu beach days, and quiet evenings by the water becoming part of our routine.<br/><br/>Directly opposite, North Foreland Golf Course has been an extraordinary neighbour, its immaculate fairways adding beauty, convenience, and a sense of grandeur. Whether you play or simply enjoy open green space, having it across the road brings a rare quality to everyday life.<br/><br/>The coastline is lined with some of Kent's most iconic beaches,from the surf-friendly curve of Joss Bay to the dramatic cliffs of Kingsgate and the lively atmosphere of Viking Bay. Each season brings its own magic, from summer swims to autumn walks and winter storms rolling across the water.<br/><br/>Captain Digby, perched above Kingsgate Bay, is another highlight. With sweeping views of the sea and Kingsgate Castle, this historic 1770s pub has long been a favourite spot for meals with a view.<br/><br/>Living at this property means being surrounded by natural beauty, coastal charm, and thoughtful amenities,a rare blend that makes this location not just desirable, but deeply fulfilling.
