27 Sentinel Road, Herne Bay

An unforgettable arrival begins the moment you turn into the private driveway. This beautiful 4-bedroom home sits well back from the street, opening to a generous forecourt with ample guest parking and secure three-car internal garaging. From here, its stature is undeniable one of the earliest grand Victorian homes built at the turn of the century on the northern slopes of Herne Bay. Yet behind the heritage facade lies a complete reimagining by Jones Architect. Every element, from weatherboards to roofline, has been renewed with precise architectural care, honouring the home’s past while elevating it for modern living. The entry is nothing short of dramatic: black wall paneling wraps the space, drawing the eye to a sweeping staircase with black-and-white balustrades, a sculptural centrepiece that feels both opulent and inviting. Dark timber floorboards lead into the light-filled living areas, where the ground floor balances open-plan flow with distinct zones for dining, lounging, and cooking. Multiple sets of doors connect seamlessly to the outdoors, opening to the heated swimming pool and a fully self-contained pool house, perfect for both relaxed family living while offering a setting for entertaining of the highest calibre. The kitchen is as functional as it is showstopping, anchored by a four-metre Italian black granite island. A butler’s pantry, premium appliances, and an adjoining dining space complete with bar and wine fridge, make it equally suited to intimate meals or lively gatherings. The dining flows to a covered outdoor space with a large herringbone-brick log fireplace, creating an all-season entertaining hub. Upstairs, three generous double bedrooms share two marble-clad family bathrooms. Every bedroom is bathed in natural light from sash windows or French doors that open to private balconies. The master suite is a retreat in every sense, with its own balcony for sunset harbour views, a luxurious ensuite, and a generous walk-in wardrobe. The grounds are exceptionally private, wrapped in tall hedges and landscaped by Suzanne Turley for year-round beauty. This is one of the most distinguished family homes on the northern slopes of Herne Bay, a rare blend of scale, craftsmanship, and comfort, just moments from the cafés and restaurants of Jervois Road.
