What the Owner says:

We bought this house from new seven years ago and have thoroughly enjoyed living here. During lockdown it was a real haven and provided a wonderful home for both work and relaxation, especially nights in our cinema. We love being able to wake up in the morning and look straight out to sea and hope the new owners will be able to revel in everything this marvellous house has to offer.
We have found St Margaret’s a delightful place to live, with a fantastic community spirit and it is wonderful to have the beach and the countryside virtually on our doorstep. The village provides everything we need on a daily basis and includes a post office, village shop, and a number of great pubs and cafes including the well-known Coastguard at St Margaret's Bay. The local primary school is rated Outstanding by Ofsted and there are also very active scout, guide and brownie troops as well as two riding stables and of course the beach.
We are not far from Martin Mill and Dover Priory for the mainline station and high-speed rail to London, while Dover and Folkestone provide access to the Continent and the lovely town of Deal is only a short drive or a delightful walk along the cliffs away. We can also walk down to the beach or stroll along to the South Foreland Lighthouse. If you enjoy golf the Kingsdown and Walmer Golf club is nearby and slightly further afield are the Royal Cinque Ports, St George’s and Princes at Sandwich.
