Land yourself right in the heart of Whitstable seaside life at this sweet two-storey maisonette. Set just off the bustling High Street and a mere five-minute jaunt from the beach for morning dog walks (a four-legged friend is welcome here, too), you couldn't dream up a more central location. Housed in the town’s old bakery, a quintessential Whitstable alley leads you to the private entrance of this characterful home. Inside, period nooks and crannies bring all the charm, with a window seat positioned just so for a spot of people-watching.
