Natural Materials and Green Tones in a Pretty Coastal Home

Minutes from the English seaside in the coastal town of Deal in Kent, lies this charming three-bedroom house. The house was recently refurbished, aiming to create light and airy rooms filled with character and a sense of calm.

During the renovation work, natural materials have been incorporated, including solid oak floorboards, timber paneling, and bespoke joinery. The result is a cozy home with personality and a natural atmosphere, enhanced by the natural color palette of light neutrals and green shades.

The ground floor is home to an open-plan living space and kitchen. Large handmade sash and casement windows flood the space, once a Victorian theatre, with natural light. On the floor lie solid oak floorboards laid traditionally using hand-forged nails.

The pared-back kitchen features a butler sink, brass fittings, and a thick, solid oak worktop. The kitchen cabinets are painted in Farrow & Ball’s Pantalon, a shade that sits between green and brown, depending on the light.

The other side of the room features a cozy seating area with paneled walls and hidden storage above the radiator.

Bespoke timber and glass doors, made by a local craftsman, separate the open-plan living space from the spacious entry hall.

The entry hall is so spacious that you can use it as an extra room, like a home office.

The entry hall features a spacious guest toilet with a French enamel sink and barrel-chrome taps located under the stairs.

The stairs are covered with Crucial Trading sisal and feature a rope handrail, which perfectly suits the house’s coastal location.

There are three bedrooms on the top floor, each with a large sash window paired with blinds using fabric from Liberty.

The master bedroom is a serene space with light, neutral walls paired with the occasional color pop, like a pink nightstand and colorful fabrics.

A wooden barn door opens to the en-suite bathroom featuring handmade Bert & May tiles.

The family bathroom features paneled walls painted in an earthy green shade (presumably the same color as the kitchen cabinets).

The room features traditional black and white encaustic tiles on the floor, a freestanding rolltop bath, and an antique glass cabinet.

A dark green Victorian front door gives access to the three-bedroom house.

The house is listed for £550.000 at Inigo.
