For Sale5 Bedroom Detached House in Kingsgate Avenue, Broadstairs, Kent, CT10 3LW£850,000

This has been a wonderful family home for the past 10 years and where the children have enjoyed growing up. However it is time to downsize although we would still like to live in the same area if possible as it is so delightful and very convenient. The area is very quiet and peaceful and we are only about a minute’s walk from the clifftops and blue flag beach at Botany Bay and not far away is the quiet Kingsgate Bay or Joss Bay for surfing and paddle boarding while the local riding stables is easily accessible for horsey enthusiasts. We are within walking distance of the North Foreland Golf club for golfing aficionados and if you want a drink or a meal without having to take the car out there is the excellent Botany Bay hotel or the Captain Digby pub/restaurant. A regular bus service takes you around Thanet on the Loop and there is a useful convenience store nearby. The charming Victorian seaside resort of Broadstairs is only a five minute drive and includes a mainline high speed rail service where the fast train to London can get you to St Pancras in under an hour and a half. There are a wide variety of individual shops, bars and restaurants, a small theatre and cinema and a number of annual events such as Folk Week, the Dickens Festival and the Food Fair as well as a number of charming sandy beaches including the picturesque sailing at Viking Bay where you can sail with the Broadstairs Sailing Club. There are also excellent education facilities with Outstanding primary and grammar schools as well as first class private schools in the area. There are also rugby, cricket, tennis and bowls clubs in the town and you can easily get to the Westwood Cross shopping centre for more in depth retail therapy. Here you will find a wide selection of high street stores and retail outlets as well as the Vue cinema, a casino, bars, eateries and gymnasia.”
