Situation
Ravenscroft enjoys an enviable elevated position in the sought-after coastal village of St Margaret's Bay. This unique property lies just a short stroll from the sheltered cove, where a secluded beach and a popular inn nestle beneath the dramatic white chalk cliffs.
Surrounded by protected National Trust land and the winding back lanes of the North Downs, the area offers stunning coastal walks and natural beauty. The bay is a favourite for swimming, windsurfing, and kayaking.
Less than a mile away, the village centre offers everyday essentials with a convenience store, post office, a traditional inn and restaurant. Local bus services connect to the charming coastal town of Deal to the north and to the port town of Dover to the south, with its ferry links to the continent and excellent access to the motorway network.
For commuters, Martin Mill station is just two miles away, offering high-speed rail services to London St Pancras, via Dover.
The Property
Commanding an elevated position, Ravenscroft is a modern detached house built circa 1960, reputedly for the former owner of the Granville Hotel. This well-appointed home offers uninterrupted sea views from both levels, making the most of its exceptional setting. Approached from the rear via a bridge from Hotel Road, the main entrance opens into a welcoming reception hall with a coats cupboard and access to three bedrooms two of which open onto a balcony with breathtaking views. A family bathroom and a separate shower room adjoin this level, providing convenience and flexibility. A staircase in solid oak descends to a lower hallway, which includes space for a desk and computer-ideal for a home office area-and a useful cloakroom. The kitchen looks out on the vegetable patch on the east and is fitted with matching units and integrated cooking appliances. An enclosed link with double-glazed doors serves as a utility space, leading to an adjoining store room. To the front, two reception rooms open onto a spacious terrace via patio doors, offering stunning panoramic views; perfect for entertaining or simply relaxing while taking in the coastal scenery.
- Outside
Tapering to a point, the property benefits from a generous side garden, featuring a spacious terrace, with an additional garden area on the opposite side. A wide variety of plants, set between lawns and mature hedging, offer a sense of privacy and seclusion. Accessed from Hotel Road, a single garage provides integral entry into the hallway. From all areas are impressive sea views.
