Features and description
Introducing "Australian Cottage," an exceptional detached Victorian villa nestled on St. Peters Road in Margate, meticulously renovated by a talented young family with impeccable taste and attention to detail.
Embracing the Japanese concept of "wabi-sabi" as their guiding aesthetic, the owners have imbued this home with a profound appreciation for the beauty found in imperfection. From the enchanting allure of open fireplaces to the rustic charm of exposed brickwork and remnants of an original hand painted mural, each detail reflects a dedication to timeless elegance. Traditional finishes and techniques, including lime plastering sealed with Marseille soap, lend a tactile and extraordinarily beautiful character to this remarkable residence.
Spread across two floors, the grandeur of this house is evident from the moment you step inside. The ground floor boasts a delightful double reception room featuring an original bay window with box sash windows, inviting abundant natural light. French doors lead from this space to the rear garden, creating a seamless connection to outdoor enjoyment. The kitchen is a masterpiece in itself, dominated by a stainless steel freestanding sink and work unit that infuses a touch of industrial chic into the ambience. Additionally, a utility area, WC, and boiler room, adaptable for bike storage, cater to practical needs. Completing this level is a cellar, offering additional storage options.
Upstairs, the bedrooms await, comprising three generous doubles, with the master bedroom enjoying the indulgence of a luxurious Lusso stone resin bath—a haven for relaxation and rejuvenation. A sleek wet room tiled in Calcutta Vein Honed marble adds a touch of opulence to the upper level.
Outside, the 120 ft garden emerges as a testament to passion and dedication, featuring beautifully planted borders and expansive lawns. Divided into two sections, the rear portion offers an ideal setting for a studio or garden office, providing endless opportunities for creative pursuits.
