THE LEGAL BIT
While we strive to create true-to-life photographs, floor plans and descriptions, our marketing material is only a guide. Purchasers should always visit in person, ask relevant questions and triple-check details. Brickworks takes our duty of care incredibly seriously and takes all reasonable steps to ensure all presented information is correct. However, we sometimes rely on the accuracy of the information provided to us by the seller and others. Also, please note that we often round up/down total floor plan measurements and/or use approximate distances.
BRICKWORKS SAYS
Set back from the hustle of the seafront in Cliftonville, this home is filled with Victorian charm that provides an elegant backdrop for everyday life. Stained glass and stucco detailing in the hallway welcome you, and honey-coloured herringbone parquet flooring creates a warm atmosphere throughout the ground floor. Fireplaces in both living areas aren’t just gorgeous centrepieces but also offer the glow of a real fire on cold nights. The kitchen is spacious enough to accommodate a freestanding unit with a butchers' block, making it perfect for cooking and hosting guests.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms: three on the first floor that have been brought to life with vibrant, zinging colours, and a large room in the loft. The current owners have renovated the bathroom with elegant terrazzo, incorporating a wet-room style and plunge bath to create a stylish sanctuary. Outside, the tiered garden extends from the lower courtyard to a large grassed area enclosed by mature shrubs, ideal for putting green fingers to good use.
With its vibrant creative scene, Margate continues to enchant day-trippers and locals alike. Food lovers are well served, whether you favour the gourmet or simply enjoy tasty fare, complemented by wine bars and pubs to suit every mood. Culture is in no short supply, with the Turner Contemporary and numerous other galleries to explore, not to mention the variety of music events at Dreamland. Of course, you could also just take a dip and enjoy the views from the sweeping, sandy beach that have inspired generations.
THE OWNERS SAY
This is a lovely family house and in a great neighbourly street. We have loved living here, it's so close to everything, yet away enough from the busy areas of Margate.

The space is versatile — ideal as a children’s room, guest space, or studio — and can be used in whatever way best suits your needs.
