Weekend place that prices around Whitstable are mad. It's nice but I don't get the hype

Just over an hour from London. If you stuck half way between Sunderland and Boro, nobody would know about it. Locals would go to our nice sandy beaches and not a pile of stones.

The big calm bay is nice and there are some lovely houses, but you are right about the hype.

It'd a pain in the arse to get to mate. I know that from experience

It looks like someone who works from home. I couldn't tell what the computer was (looked a bit odd really) but they had a briefcase next to their chair. It looked like someone working from home but normally has an office & suit job. But to get to the desk you have to step over what looks like just a big pile of old carrier bags. I've got a empty amazon box that I need to walk past to get to my desk (keeping it as I might ebay some stuff) and that is annoying me.

Looking at the tippy chair in the living room, the wet room with shower seat I'd say they had mobility issues.
Add to the fact that the computer has a tassimo machine next to it and being quite an old spec of pc, I'd say it was an elderly gent with a questionable internet searching history.

Just my guess like.

Had a weird bloke in our street who I always thought was a wrong un. (Badges on his walking stick.) Think he's been put in a home (or died) and the landlord came to tidy the place up. He was a hoarder and the bloke has been on weeks.
Occasionally appears dressed up like he works in a nuclear reactor. I dread to think what the smell is like inside.

If it is, I'm prepared to bet it's not clean


What on earth even is that? I've seen student halls with bigger rooms

Hard to tell what they have done. It is a row of houses going round a corner, but rather than have the corner one a bit bigger, it looks like they have made this strange triangular single room, then cut a corner off for a bathroom. There is not an identical upstairs flat, so it seems you have a single room while your neighbour is both your adjoining wall and above you.

I wondered if someone had split up a small house even smaller looking to make a few quid by putting in an extra door, but google street view shows it has been like that for well over 12 years.

That is a really strange house. Massive place for 2 bedrooms. But some of the cost is the cottages. From the picture, I think I'd prefer to live in the cottage.

They have clearly spent a fortune on it, but it feels like it needs just as much again turning it into a workable house. Looks really nice from the outside and some lovely wood work, but feels like far more woodwork than it actually needs, making it just seem chaotic and cluttered.

A million pound needs spending on that to bring it back to normal.

It belonged to this guy, the larger-than-life Felix Dennis. (He died in 2014, and I think it's changed hands at least once - but the décor is as he left it.)
