Chalk House, Westgate-on-Sea
36 one and two bedroom apartments within three restored Victorian villas on Sea Road, a few minutes’ walk from the Blue Flag beach at St Mildred’s Bay.
A NEW CHAPTER FOR SEA ROAD
Victorian villas, restored as homes once again
Built between 1880 and 1890 in the Queen Anne Revival style, the villas at 39, 41 and 43 Sea Road were part of Westgate-on-Sea’s original Victorian resort. After decades as care homes, they have been carefully converted into 36 apartments.
Elevations have been preserved and period proportions reinstated, with bay windows, cornicing and generous ceiling heights retained wherever possible. The conversion was led by Canterbury practice Clague Architects, with interiors by design studio Ademchic.
Each apartment looks over either the restored grounds or the Sea Road frontage towards the bay.

ROOTED IN HERITAGE, ATTUNED TO MODERN LIFE
Interiors inspired by the coastline
Open plan living
Living and dining spaces are generous and flexible, equally suited to a quiet evening or a weekend with friends. Windows reflect the buildingsโ original character, drawing light deep into the rooms and framing views across Sea Road towards the bay or over the grounds.
Kitchens
Kreider Shaker style kitchens in colours chosen to suit each homeโs natural light, with polished quartz worktops and matching splashbacks. Knurled bar handles in brushed brass are paired with a matt black tap, and appliances are fully integrated.
Bedrooms
Generous skirting, cornicing and herringbone style flooring reinstate proportion and warmth. The palette draws on the coastline, with sage greens, soft greys and golden accents, and the principal bedroom has a built in wardrobe.
Bathrooms
Striped tiling nods to the bathing suits once worn by Victorian swimmers at St Mildredโs Bay. Wall hung WCs with concealed cisterns, brushed brass fittings and electric towel rails complete a playful but refined finish.
LIFE BY THE COAST

The station is within walking distance, with direct Southeastern trains to London St Pancras International in as little as 1 hour 36 minutes.
