If fun pops of colour, artsy design and luxurious furnishings tickle your fancy, then this wonderfully warm home by the seaside is bound to catch your interest. Rich paints, glass chandeliers, quirky artwork, velvet furniture and golden finishing touches set the scene with an air of sophistication and lavished comfort. Hang out on the private patio in the paved courtyard garden for a barbecue in the sunshine or snuggle up around the wood burner fire in the living room during the chilly winter months. Offering the perfect space for a family or large group of friends – the home features a self-contained studio with a double sofa bed, kitchen and bathroom, which can be used as a separate living space when hosting a smaller group or a sixth bedroom at total capacity. Located in the heart of Margate, soak up the gorgeous golden sands with walks on the beach, head to the harbour and stroll around the artistic quarter of the Old Town – with an array of innovative eateries, cute cafes, vintage shops and galleries to discover.
