The details

Perched right on Whitstable Beach, The Foredeck is a wonderfully characterful four bedroom seaside home where the sea feels like part of everyday life. Throw open the curtains and you’re met with endless blue horizons, shifting tides and fishing boats drifting past. With the beach just beyond the sea wall, this is a place where you can pad out barefoot for a sunrise swim, return for coffee with salty skin and spend your evenings gathered at the windows as the sun begins to set.

Set over four spacious floors, the layout is delightfully unique and ideal for families or groups who want to be together while still enjoying their own space. On the ground floor you’ll find two inviting bedrooms: a calming double with built-in wardrobe and dressing table, and a playful bunk room with a double below and single above that children will instantly claim. Both share a stylish bathroom with a generous walk-in shower. From this level, step into the courtyard garden and wander straight towards the beach for a bracing dip or a windswept dog walk along the shore.

Up on the first floor are two king size bedrooms that make the very most of the setting. Wrap round windows frame sweeping sea views so you can wake slowly with the tide. The master bedroom is a soothing retreat, complete with ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and a wonderfully deep Tubby bath, perfect for long soaks after blustery coastal adventures. The second king size room has its own adjoining shower room, offering comfort and privacy for everyone.

The second floor is home to the showstopping kitchen and dining space. Flooded with light, it’s a joy to cook here as gulls wheel past the windows. Gather around the table for leisurely breakfasts with the sea as your backdrop, share long suppers as the light fades, or curl up in the snug with a cuppa and simply watch the weather roll in.

Finally, the top floor lounge steals the show. With floor to ceiling 180 degree windows, it’s a front row seat to Whitstable’s famous sunsets and ever changing skies. Sink into the sofa with a glass of wine and watch the tide ebb and flow below. A handy wc is also located on this level.

With private parking, dog friendly touches and the harbour, independent shops, cafes and restaurants just a short stroll away, The Foredeck places you perfectly to enjoy Whitstable at its best. Spend your days sampling freshly shucked oysters at the working harbour, browsing art galleries and boutiques along Harbour Street or cycling the Crab and Winkle Way towards Canterbury. Explore Tankerton Slopes for wide open views across the estuary, venture to the historic city of Canterbury with its magnificent cathedral, or simply linger on the beach as fishing boats head out to sea. However you fill your days, returning home to your front row seat by the water is always the highlight.
