Goldsmiths is a handsome Edwardian house situated on the Southern side of Joy Lane, one of Whitstable's premier roads, from where it enjoys easy access to the beach, vibrant town centre and mainline station which is less than one mile distant.

This substantial property has recently undergone a major programme of extension and refurbishment works to create a superb family home with elegantly proportioned accommodation set over three floors, totalling approximately 3004 sq ft (279 sq m). The interior is presented in enviable style, combining a wealth of period detail with bright, contemporary open-plan living space. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, sitting room, drawing room with wood burning stove by Mendip Stoves, and an impressive bespoke timber kitchen/dining room by Herringbone Kitchens with oak parquet flooring and casement doors opening to the garden. There is also a utility room, study, cloakrooom, five double bedrooms and three luxurious bathrooms, including the master bedroom suite with en-suite shower room.

Externally, the black timber clad facade of the modern extension is satisfyingly juxtaposed against the fine period brickwork of the house and ties in with the fully insulated and double glazed garden studio (with attached store) which is currently utilised as a gym. The private and thoughtfully landscaped gardens incorporate a natural stone terrace and provide gated vehicular access via The Chase. The large gravel driveway provides ample off road parking and gives access to the attached garage with first floor workshop.
