Property description

Its beautiful Georgian town houses, charming, well-cared-for gardens and tennis courts as well as sea views across to France, Sandwich Bay and Deal, makes Spencer Square one of the most attractive areas of Ramsgate. The Grade II listed properties are real gems and this property is no exception.

Spread over five floors, this lovely family home provides something to delight, wherever you look. It could be the wonderful period features including the fireplaces, stained glass windows, high ceilings, sculptured coving and original doors or the magnificent views across the gardens to the sea. While historic and unique features abound, this house is very much a place for the 21st century and has been maintained to such a high standard that you can move straight in without having to upgrade anything. It includes a trendy new kitchen with a variety of high-quality built-in appliances that opens up to the charming dining room, attractive bathrooms and a very easy-to-maintain decked garden.

The elegant lounge area on the first floor incorporates an original fireplace and French windows leading to the balcony, where you can sit overlooking the gardens and an archway to a separate ‘snug’ that makes an ideal office or TV room. The master bedroom on the second floor has hand-built wardrobes and here you can sit up in bed enjoying the stunning views.

With three further bedrooms and a large family shower room on the upper floors there is plenty of flexible accommodation. However, if you have adult children or perhaps a caretaker to look after the property in your absence there is a very useful studio apartment on the lower ground floor. This consists of a large sitting room/bedroom and kitchen with easy access to the Victorian-style bathroom on the ground floor. It also has a separate entrance and a door to the garden and is adjacent to the dry cellar where you can store your wine.

What the Owner says:

While it will be a wrench to leave somewhere where we have spent so many happy years we feel it is time to make a move. Over the years I have enjoyed sensitively upgrading the property. This includes recently installing a new kitchen and bathrooms while many of the features, I personally created to make our home unique. It is an ideal place for entertaining and we enjoy hosting barbecues in the decked garden all summer long. We have always loved the community spirit engendered by the local residents. In the summer we have monthly ‘gardening days’ where people who live in the square tend the communal garden and end the day with a few drinks and a barbecue. The views are special and, on a clear day, we see France. We have even enjoyed the fireworks on Bastille Day! The house is also very central for the town. We can walk to Waitrose and it is not far from the pubs and restaurants along Harbour Parade and Main Sands for a day on the beach with the children. I have to go to London on a regular basis and the high-speed train from Ramsgate is extremely useful and can whisk me to London in under an hour-and-a-quarter.
