Detached House for sale with 5 bedrooms, Capel Close, Broadstairs

You need to cross the threshold to really appreciate everything this superbly modernised and extended four/five bedroom chalet bungalow can provide. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac only a short distance from the seafront at the Blue Flag Botany Bay Beach it was completely remodelled in 2020/2021 and now provides everything needed for discerning owners, whether you are looking for a permanent home or a contemporary seaside holiday and weekend retreat.

There is a large resin driveway where you can park about three cars, bordered by a dwarf wall and shrub beds and leads to the garage and to the front door. This opens into the charming hallway that is semi open plan to the ground floor living accommodation and has parquet flooring. Porcelain tiles flow through the spectacular and contemporary kitchen/breakfast room with its wall of bi-fold doors to the terrace that continue round into the dining area.

The kitchen includes modern units housing an induction hob and extractor, a built in oven, combi microwave and warming drawer, a pull out larder, an integrated full height larder fridge and matching freezer. There is a large central island/breakfast bar with a dishwasher, sink and a ‘Qettle’ boiling and filtered water tap as well as direct access to the dual aspect dining area. As well as the additional bi-fold doors this also has a large lantern skylight so is a very light and bright area and, since there is no central pillar between the kitchen and dining area bi-folds, when they are all open, you are virtually bringing the outdoors inside and you feel you are actually doubling the size of the area as the terrace also continues with the porcelain tiles. The dining area is open plan to the dual aspect lounge with its original herringbone parquet flooring and a modern glass and oak staircase to the first floor.

At the front of the property, and accessed from the hall, there are two double bedrooms including one with a bay window and the other with an en suite double shower. A corridor leads to a fifth bedroom, that could also be a study, with French doors to the rear terrace, an adjacent contemporary wet room and a door to the garage with laundry facilities and a large water tank and new boiler.

On the first floor there is a very large triple aspect double bedroom that has a vaulted ceiling and Velux windows with blinds on either side with views of the sea, a second double bedroom that also makes an excellent dressing room and a modern family bathroom with a stand alone oval bath and a curved vanity basin. This whole area would make a wonderful and very private master suite.

Outside the porcelain tiled rear terrace offers a wonderful outdoor entertaining space and the easy-to-manage garden includes shrub borders and a new lawn and is just the place for kids to kick a ball around. A decked terrace at the end of the garden provides additional seating or would be an ideal spot for a hot tub, while the new fencing offers security and privacy.
