This has been a wonderful holiday home for us for the past 10 years. There is nothing better than arriving here on a Friday evening after a busy week and being able to relax and enjoy the views. We are just across the road from steps down to the fantastic Blue Flag West Bay and in the summer months we spend as much time enjoying the beach as possible. During our time here we have update and extended the property to create the amazing home you see today, which is just ready for new owners to walk into and not have to do anything except install their furniture. We also designed it to be very low maintenance and is very much a ‘lock up and go’ house if you want it as a holiday home, but it can equally well be a very special permanent home for a large family revelling in the location. Westgate is a lovely seaside town and the station is within easy walking distance with the fast train to London taking just over an hour and a half. Westgate is also a very friendly community with a village like atmosphere. It has some charming and individual shops including a unique parade of individual canopied shops and cafes as well as an excellent and inexpensive cinema, a golf course and  some very good restaurants in the vicinity including the Michelin recommended Quince. The Blue Flag beaches at West Bay and St Mildreds are wonderful for walking the dogs in the winter and swimming in the summer and, if you enjoy cycling, there are a number of excellent routes including part or all of the 32 mile stretch of coastline from Ramsgate to Reculver via the Viking Coastal Trail. There are also two very good secondary schools in the area as well as a number of well-respected primary schools with grammar and private schools available in Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Canterbury. Road links are very good with access to the Thanet Way for Canterbury and London while, for more in depth retail therapy and entertainment, there is the Westwood Cross shopping centre with its plethora of high street stores and restaurants, casino and bingo hall.

Bedford House sits proudly as an end of terrace residence on Brighton’s iconic Marine Parade. With sweeping views across the English Channel, this exceptional home marries Regency splendour with modern convenience. A luxury cinema room, a sun filled south facing courtyard and a sea facing balcony are complemented by off street parking, secured behind an electric gate. The property also includes a glamorous three bedroom apartment on the lower ground floor, providing superb guest accommodation or the option to rent independently. Standing within the East Cliff conservation area, Bedford House has a rich and colourful history. The house was built around 1810 (potentially for the Duke of Bedford) and later became home to the painter Cecil D’Oyly John (a favourite of the Queen Mother), the playwright Sir Terence Rattigan and more recently the theatrical agent Roger Hancock. Many celebrity friends of these previous owners including Vivien Leigh, Margaret Leighton and Laurence Olivier were welcomed here. Rattigan’s previous ownership is commemorated by a Regency Society blue plaque. A detailed narrative of the rich history of this stunning sea-side home, meticulously compiled by the current owner is available on request. Upon arrival to the raised ground floor, great care has been taken to honour and preserve the character shaped by its influential occupants. The reclaimed sweeping staircase, installed in the 1960s by Sir Terence Rattigan to impress his famous guests with a dramatic entrance, remains the striking centrepiece. From here, the reception room opens through a grand archway, with natural light pouring through tall windows set above oak stained panelling. This enormous space is still made wonderfully inviting and cosy thanks to the clever mixture of, the Chesneys wood burning stove set within the white carrarra marble fireplace, the cast iron radiators all then complimented with Brinton Tartan carpet throughout.

A particularly rare and delightful feature is the sliding curved wooden sash shutters within the bay. Discreetly positioned on this level, the guest WC continues the theme of considered luxury with Verde Guatemala Marble, original Drummond fittings and Lefroy Brooks lighting. On the first floor, the grand drawing room is a showpiece of period craftsmanship, set against a breathtaking backdrop of sea and sky. Ornate plaster cast ceilings are enhanced with gilded accents, while a beautiful open marble fireplace sits beneath the elegant proportions. The luxurious Teak wooden flooring is complimented by the floor to ceiling windows which open onto a wrought iron balcony, creating a room that is both dramatic and serene. Much of the wood panelling was reclaimed from a 1720s country house by previous owners who transformed the property between 1967 and 1988. Their restoration included employing a gilder for a full month to decorate the plasterwork and sourcing the working marble fireplace from the ballroom of the Cadbury family’s London house. Adorning the walls are four paintings by the celebrated artist and former owner Cecil D’Oyly John (Sold subject to separate negotiation) Across the hallway, the tranquil study offers a quiet retreat and a fantastic space for calm and creativity. The bookcases which frame the original Georgian fireplace and cover the opposite wall were installed in Rattigan’s ownership, a room where he likely spent many hours in creative thought writing amongst other things his play “Man and Boy” which is currently playing at the National Theatre in London. A bust of Sir Terence Rattigan will remain in place, offering a fitting connection to the home’s remarkable past. The principal suite enjoys captivating views of the beach and sea, with luxury designer wallpaper by Timorous Beasties bringing a playful elegance to the space. A dedicated dressing room offers extensive storage, finished with hand painted, solid wood wardrobes and walnut drawer interiors. For added practicality, a washing machine and tumble dryer are neatly incorporated, set on concrete plinths to minimise sound and vibration – a modern luxury in a period home! The ensuite is finished to an exceptionally high standard with a Lusso stone bath, toilet and basin, Lefroy Brooks lighting finished with surrounds of gorgeous Spanish black marble, which is streaked with a stunning mass of white lines. Rising to the second floor, the west wing holds the Margaret Leighton Suite, named in tribute to Rattigan’s muse. He originally created a pink ensuite for her, and the current owners have honoured this history by updating the bathroom with underfloor heating, a marble mosaic tiled floor and a drench style shower. A signed photograph of Margaret Leighton will remain with the home. On the third floor, the final bedroom was historically two rooms but has been reconfigured to create a generous guest suite. With a substantial walk-in wardrobe and a private ensuite, visitors are afforded both comfort and privacy in equal measure. Two loft spaces offer plenty of storage. Descending to the lower ground floor you will find a particularly special art-deco inspired three double bedroom, two bathroom apartment. This space can be accessed either via an internal bespoke staircase, or its own street entrance should you wish to keep it separate. What makes this floor particularly special is the extraordinary cinema room, perfectly suited to the film star guests who once frequented this period property. This Art Deco inspired room is a complete indulgence, with a stunning stained-glass entrance, a lit staircase and a high gloss rosewood and Birdseye maple bar. Electric curtains open to reveal the large TV, wired with surround sound, it offers a true cinematic experience for both film and television. The granite topped bar includes a double Klarstein wine cooler, along with a Miele fridge and dishwasher. The whole floor has been extensively renovated to include tanking to the cinema room, soundproofed bedroom ceilings, new heating and electrics, new windows and its own separate hot water tank. The only part of this level that isn’t art deco is the eye-catching kitchen, which has repurposed some of the 1950’s cabinetry previously used for the main kitchen above. The English Rose aluminium design has been skilfully restored, updated, and carefully remodelled to now fit this level. Former owners Roger and Annie Hancock, Roger being the brother of comedian Tony Hancock and a theatrical agent representing the likes of Spike Milligan, Frankie Howard, Peter Sellers, created the first cinema room here, complete with a projector suspended from the ceiling, further celebrating the home’s longstanding connection to the arts. To the front, behind a walled perimeter, the south facing courtyard patio is bathed in sunlight throughout the day and provides a wonderful setting for al fresco dining or a quiet morning coffee. Finished in Indian sandstone and supported by an irrigation system, it offers both style and ease of maintenance. To the side, the property benefits from off street parking for one large vehicle, complete with an electric charging point and accessed via an electric gate that complements the walled courtyard beautifully.
