2 Eastern Esplanade

All the best things about Great British seaside holidays fall beautifully into place at 2 Eastern Esplanade in Broadstairs. This classic Victorian family house with stylish contemporary interior is right on the seafront of Stones Bay so little feet are literally steps away from a sandy Blue Flag beach, with the added lure of rockpools at low tide. Buckets and spades, balls, beach toys and a UV tent are all provided at the house and there’s even a pull along wagon to carry 3 children to the seashore, plus a Maclaren stroller. Just a few minutes toddle along the seafront and there are swing boats and trampolines on Viking Bay or the crazy golf, ice cream parlours and quintessential summer holiday fun of Broadstairs itself.

Although coaxing youngsters away from the beaches might be tricky, it’s a little easier thanks to the child friendly features at 2 Eastern Esplanade. The large front garden boasts superb sea views and a shower hose for washing off sandy feet while at the rear of the house is an enclosed lawned garden and decked patio for wining and dining in the evening sun. Even if the weather isn’t great, staying indoors is no hardship! The young family owners have lovingly renovated this fine Victorian house bringing it bang up to date with stylish decor, funky finishing touches and the reassuring evidence of having three young children themselves in the form of abundant nursery gear, toys, books and DVD.

The spacious living room is a luxurious chill out zone with big comfy sofas, wood burning stove, 32” flat screen TV with Sky HD+, DVD/blue ray player, iPod docking station and CD system, then there’s the bonus of a family room with play tables, toys, games and books. The large, open plan kitchen dining room includes an oversize SMEG fridge freezer, professional range cooker, a contemporary table and chairs for 10 and French doors to the patio with outdoor furniture. On the first and second floors, the children’s bedrooms are bright and playful, the grown up doubles are large and luxurious and bathrooms are kitted out with quality toiletries, fluffy linen and helpful accessories for toddlers. All in all, 2 Eastern Esplanade is one classy, well equipped house for families and friends to have the ultimate English seaside holiday.
