An idyllic property in Kent has been put on the market – and the best part is that you can walk out from the house onto the beach and into the pub. It can’t get much better than that, right?

Neptune Gap is located in a prominent beach-front location in central Whitstable. Not only does it boast fantastic seafront views, which can be enjoyed from its very own viewing tower, it also neighbours one of the town’s most famous pubs.

Whitstable itself is a very popular fishing town that is full of charm. Famous for its oysters, independent shops, and award-winning restaurants, it is a popular seaside destination. Whether you want to take a walk along the harbour and get fish and chips by the sea, get on your bike and take in the scenery along the Crab and Winkle Way, or enjoy a Michelin star meal, there is something for everyone in Whitstable.

The property was built to a one-off design 30 years ago and is now on the market for the first time. It boasts a fabulous beach-front setting and is just a few strides away from The Old Neptune, one of only a handful of pubs to be situated actually ‘on’ the beaches of Britain.

The pub dates back to the early 19th century and is affectionately known as ‘The Neppy’; it is a popular place to sit back and enjoy some home-cooked food while watching one of Whitstable’s sunsets. It also has a long history as a live music venue and hosts free music events every Saturday and Sunday from 6pm.

This 3,000 sq ft property is set over three floors and offers lots of opportunities for the right buyer to make further enhancements to this already very unique home. There is extensive off-street parking and a spacious terraced garden behind the sea wall.

The ground floor has a sea view feature reception room, kitchen, study, cloakroom, and master bedroom suite. On the first floor you will find three further bedrooms, a dressing room, bathroom and the observation tower.

Even with its prominent position, the property still manages to maintain a good level of privacy. The terraced garden is well looked after and offers a secluded area, complete with a sea-facing balcony. There is also an integral garage with through access, a cloakroom and workshop area.

The property is being marketed on Rightmove, by estate agents Woodward and Bishopp of Whitstable, at a guide price of £1,650,000. See the listing here.
