Location:
The picturesque seaside town of Birchington is situated on the Kent coast and offers a good range of amenities with independent shops, supermarkets and eateries, medical and dental practices and schooling. Ocean Close is just off Epple Bay, bordering Birchington and Westgate-on-Sea where the promenade allows access to some of the finest coastal walks and cycle path that stretch as far as Reculver with its Roman fort, whilst Birchington & Westgate 18 hole golf course is just yards away.
The train station at Birchington provides services to London St Pancras via the High Speed link, with journeys from 90 minutes, whilst road-users can access the nearby A299 Thanet Way for easy access to the M2 motorway.
Once coined as 'Mayfair by the sea' when aristocratic Londoners visited during summer, Westgate is a highly regarded coastal town, predominately of period architecture with its Victorian canopied shops offering a range of independent boutiques, mainstream supermarket cafe's, restaurants and bars. Westgate is also home to a magnificent 18-hole golf club, the grade II listed Carlton Cinema and a selection of both primary and secondary schools.
The à la mode town of Margate with its vibrant 'Old Town' is 1.9 miles away and offers a range of amenities, which are complemented by those found at Westwood Cross. The area provides a selection of well-regarded schools in both state and private sectors. Further leisure, cultural and educational facilities can be found in both the cathedral city of Canterbury and the harbour town of Ramsgate.
Westgate train station is close by and provides a frequent service for commuters straight through to London Victoria. Margate mainline station is 1.5 miles distant and provides direct links to London Victoria as well as the high speed Javelin service to London St. Pancras.
The A299 is approximately 4.5 miles away providing excellent road links to London via the M2 at Brenley Corner.
