Feathers, St Margaret's At Cliffe, Kent CT15

This serene five-bedroom home lies in St Margaret’s at Cliffe, Kent, a village forming part of the designated South Foreland Heritage Coast. Surrounded by arresting views of the countryside and the sea beyond, the house has two versatile living areas, alongside a series of light-filled bedrooms with bucolic views. A large paved terrace is perfect for sitting out, while carefully maintained lawns look onto the fields and farmland beyond. The seaside town of Deal is less than a 20-minute drive away, and the Dover ferry port is also close by.

The Tour

A large gravelled driveway with a detached double garage sits at the front of the house. A flight of steps framed by neat hedging descends to the front door. Inside, a wide entrance hall leads to a vast living room with sliding doors and far-reaching views across the landscape. A log burner with tiled hearth is perfect for hunkering down on cooler evenings.

In the kitchen, red quarry tiles run underfoot, while a wide window fills the space with natural light. Appliances include a Stoves range cooker. A second sitting room on the opposite side of the house has further opportunities for enjoying the views via glazed sliding doors, with glimpses of the sea. In one corner, a log burner has exposed chrome pipework, while a kitchenette is installed to one side.

There are five bright bedrooms, each with mesmerising views of the surrounding countryside and the sea beyond. The principal has full-height fitted storage and an en suite shower room. The house has two additional bathrooms (one with a shower, one with a bathtub) and a guest WC.

A timber-framed shepherd’s hut provides additional accommodation, and has its own shower room.
