Mill Road, Deal, Kent, CT14

The Forelands is a most handsome Edwardian detached residence dating from 1910, which has been thoughtfully and respectfully modernised to blend timeless period character with contemporary comfort. Enjoying an enviable position opposite Victoria Park, framed by mature horse chestnut trees, this spacious family home retains an abundance of original features whilst benefitting from high quality modern improvements throughout.

From the moment you step inside, the reception hall sets the tone, with its original tiled floor and sweeping staircase rising beneath a lofty panelled ceiling to a galleried landing above. Generously proportioned reception rooms radiate from here, including the elegant sitting room where an Esse wood-burning stove is set within the original surround. A glazed Edwardian door leads from the sitting room through to the conservatory. The Neptune designed kitchen forms the heart of the home, fitted with premium appliances including twin Neff ovens, an integrated microwave, induction hob, Siemens extractor, Franke boiling hot tap and integrated dishwasher. A large central island with statement pendant lighting anchors the space, while underfloor heating runs seamlessly through the kitchen, breakfast room, pantry, utility and cloakroom. From here, the kitchen flows into a wonderfully light conservatory, finished with plantation shutters and a newly tiled floor. Ideal for both relaxed entertaining and everyday living, a further glazed Edwardian door opens onto an expansive paved terrace and the secluded south-west facing garden.

On the first floor, a bright and airy galleried landing provides access to four well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which feature original fireplaces as characterful focal points. The family bathroom has been sympathetically updated, blending classic design with modern luxury. Underfloor heating, a Burlington freestanding bath, and a generous walk-in power shower.

Extras:
The sale includes plantation shutters, bespoke curtains, Roger Oates stair carpet, fitted carpets and beautiful chandeliers, most of which are Christopher Wray, all carefully chosen to complement the home’s elegant proportions.

OUTSIDE
To the rear of the property, the landscaped gardens extend to around a third of an acre, planted with mature shrubs, fruit trees, and an established vine, complemented by the charm of the original gardener’s WC. To the front, the property is set well back from the road behind a gated driveway providing off road parking for several vehicles, and leads to a detached double garage. This versatile space offers superb potential for conversion into a home studio or guest suite (subject to the necessary consents).

With its striking Edwardian façade, beautifully balanced interiors, and gardens designed for both seclusion and enjoyment, The Forelands is a home of genuine distinction, simply ready to move into and enjoy.
