Seaview Cottage is a delightful 17th century property located in Whitstable, a fashionable and flourishing coastal town.

Set back from the road with an abundance of green foliage offering an excellent degree of privacy, this charming and quaint weatherboarded home has a lovely magical quality throughout.

Full of character and attractively presented, the ground floor comprises a good size sitting room flooded with natural light from the square bay window, a log burning stove; the flickering flames and crackle of burning logs creating a cosy environment and mesmerising focal point, a formal dining room or second reception room, well fitted kitchen and separate utility space. Upstairs are two double bedrooms to the front aspect with a further single bedroom and bathroom completing the interior.

The surrounding gardens are wonderfully informal, with a mix of planting, brick pathways, patios and established trees. A substantial shed for storage of garden tools, bikes and beach equipment is a practical and useful addition to the garden.

With the benefit of a highly desirable parking space, this appealing cottage is a comfortable home, although would equally make an ideal seaside retreat or investment opportunity.
