SITUATION:
Stone Road is situated moments from the seafront and less than a mile to Broadstairs bustling town centre. Broadstairs is a quintessential seaside town with an historic harbour with a rich maritime tradition and a bustling High Street with a variety of independent retailers, cafes, and restaurants. There is a strong sense of community within the town with many regular events such as the Dickens Festival and Broadstairs Folk Week.
The town has seven sandy beaches including the Blue Flag Joss Bay and enjoys lovely cliff top walks to the neighbouring coastal towns of Ramsgate and Margate. On the outskirts of the town, you have numerous retail parks which offer a far wider selection of big-name shops, including the Westwood Cross Shopping Centre, which also has a cinema and casino.
Broadstairs offers a range of other leisure amenities and an excellent selection of State and private schools, including Dane Court Grammar School and St Lawrence College. The town is served by a mainline station which offers a service to London St Pancras via Ashford International in approx. 1 hour and 20 minutes.
The thriving town of Margate just 3 miles away, is one of Englands most quintessential seaside towns, with its long, sandy beaches and traditional seaside shops and arcades. However, there is also a new and vibrant atmosphere in Margate, with the world-renowned Turner Contemporary art gallery (opened in 2011) and the regeneration of the Old Town, with its vast array of boutique shops and international cafes and restaurants. The town is also served by a variety of High Street stores, whilst the recently developed Westwood Cross shopping centre offers a superb array of shopping and recreational amenities. Margate has much to see and do, including three theatres, the Winter Gardens, The Theatre Royal (the second oldest theatre in the country) and the Tom Thumb Theatre (one of the smallest theatres in the world).
