Property description & features

  • Tenure: Share of freehold
Welcome to Courtstairs Manor, an exceptional residential development that goes beyond ordinary. Painstakingly restored with meticulous attention to detail, this unique landmark is nestled within the breathtaking Pegwell Bay National Nature Reserve on the coveted Kent coast, offering an unparalleled seascape setting.

The magnificent main building has been transformed into seven distinct apartments, each exuding its own individual style and charm. With floor plans designed to maximize the mesmerizing sea views, these residences are a testament to thoughtful consideration and impeccable craftsmanship. Additionally, the manor is flanked by seven new houses and charming mews, ensuring a diverse range of living options to suit any discerning buyer. Every home within this development has been designed with both aesthetic appeal and durability in mind, capable of withstanding the coastal elements. Whether seeking a splendid family home or a perfect weekend retreat, Courtstairs Manor offers a haven to escape and recharge.

Apartment three encompasses the entirety of the ground floor in the East Wing of the original Courtstairs Manor. Retaining numerous period features, including a unique arched entrance vestibule framing the front door, this spacious apartment boasts a separate and generously sized kitchen-an exclusive feature within the development. The large lounge area opens onto a south-facing deck, providing an idyllic vantage point to admire the gardens and the captivating sea views. Early purchasers have the opportunity to shape the final interior design details of this truly exceptional living space, ensuring a personalized touch.

Dating back to 1875, Courtstairs Manor holds a rich history as a cherished family home before being repurposed as an exhibition and wedding venue. The developers have spared no effort in preserving the manor's Gothic style, both inside and out, with an unwavering commitment to intricate detailing by highly skilled, specialist tradespeople. The warm red brickwork and period architectural features have been meticulously revitalized, breathing new life into the estate. Moreover, every window has been crafted from scratch using Accoya, a durable and resilient wood specifically chosen to withstand the challenging coastal environment.

This remarkable restoration project is a testament to a "no expense spared" approach, ensuring the highest quality in every aspect of the development.

As you pass through the imposing entrance gate, a world of beauty unfolds, with meticulously manicured grounds surrounding an enchanting ornate fountain. The newly designed car park provides two allocated spaces per property, each equipped with its own private EV charging point, catering to the needs of modern residents.

The Kent coastline offers a vibrant and evolving social scene, easily accessible from Courtstairs Manor. Discover an array of trendy coffee shops, gastro pubs, specialist restaurants, and artisan bakeries, which coexist alongside long-established traditional retailers, antique emporiums, and independent seafood merchants.

Just a 15-minute stroll along the esplanade lies Ramsgate, a captivating harbor town renowned for its diverse arts community, yachting enthusiasts, and seasonal visitors. Along the way, take a moment to savor a coffee at The Boating Pool, a charming former Victorian lido now housing two cafes, live music performances, and pedalos for leisurely enjoyment.
