As someone whose mother owned a beachfront house along the South coast in Sussex, honestly you don't notice the sea view after a short time but you do note the damp from the salt wind, and miss any garden space where nothing will grow well (wind and salt)
Very good points you make. Not a practical house for them, as there is no garage to house his bikes and no parking. I think that they'll get tired of it pretty quickly. As beautiful as it is. I'd rather rent it for a few weeks a year.
This was a great episode (though I would have liked to know which year this was). It's always a happy moment to find a new Phil & Kirstie episode I haven't seen yet.
Yay, a new episode! I was in Whitstable in April (coming from Canada) and it's thrilling to see areas that I was at. I love the UK, I'd move there in a minute if I could afford it. Thanks for the upload.
Glad to see Kirsty and Phil back! It was a new episod for me. I wouldn't have chosen the house by the sea in Herne Bay, for the same reasons other viewers mentioned and no garage and place for his bikes or motorbikes. Glad the younger couple found a house more affordable and convenaient for their family but liked the one Kirsty had found first. As someone who spent summer holidays in Herne Bay, I remember the place not very welcoming with people having lots of pitbulls running in the park. I much prefered Whistable or Birchington even Margate.
A few thoughts: Phil, don't call yourself the Picasso of Property! You would only show houses with doors on the roof and windows facing into the cellar. The gorgeous seaside Georgian: the occupant of the top bedroom would have to go down two floors to take a bath. I loved that houseas a showpiece, but a sea view would not matter to me one tenth as much as it does to this couple. At least the husband will not have to go through a nightmare renovation project again just to please his wife, but I'm not sure he will find this house to be pleasant as a home. I really liked the fourth house shown to that couple. I loved the abundance of woodwork and the big bay windows. Indulging in the fantasy of buying it for myself, I would change the fireplace surrounds to something more appropriate, install hardwood floors everywhere (no carpets for me!) and do some minor tweaking to the kitchen. That's it! It's a lovely home.
Mmmm I think he actually is the Picasso. He got this family a house of their dreams. I can only imagine how much the value has increased on it so I was a win. The couple don’t look as though they have any trouble getting from one level to the next. I’m quite happy for them. The husband was a hoot and I see his appeal.
Yes, I would love to have a sea view as well but my preference would be from a safer distance, best on a hill top. Plus, being this close to the sea means people milling around, more traffic, etc. Though I did love the house myself as well.
That is my main concern with buying a house so close to the sea/ocean etc. Not to mention annual insurance rates being very high. This one was way too many floors also.
I would’ve expected the older couple to be more reasonable and not go 20 k over budget on an impulse buy. Those single pane windows to the sea gave me the chills, it must be really cold there in winter. It’s not even a proper, detached house😳
Very emotional involvements. Makes one understand why there's such a thing as buyer's remorse when one foregoes amenities that tick the "practical" boxes in favor of a knockout view. It would be interesting to come back and find out years later what the long term view was.
(11:37) Phil: "The outside of it, whatdaya make of it?" PHIL!!!! She said GEORGIAN!!! And THAT is NOT Georgian. Mind you, you won't find a Georgian property with a garage.

That Georgian house on the waterfront was stunning inside and out and oh that view...
Wonderful, a new episode ❤❤❤ To me.

My thought exactly!

I LOVE YOU PHIL and KIRSTY , good to see you both again!
This is just the best darn show ever !!
AGREED!!!!!
Yes! I watch it for 20 years now!
This was a great episode (though I would have liked to know which year this was). It's always a happy moment to find a new Phil & Kirstie episode I haven't seen yet.

@@bleumarin1968 Thanks, I must have missed it.

Whitstable is so lovely!

Love the Georgian house with the fab views.
Love them both. I have always loved Kirstys character. The boss.😅

Fantastic both couple's got the right house's for them. From Ireland 🍀
My anglophile juices are flowing!!! Phil and Kirsty are great entertainment! Cheers!

I loved the house with the sea view but i would have taken the second house with a glimpse of the sea and maximized the potential.
Wonderful, a new episode ❤I just love Phil and Kirsty!
Sea front properties can sometimes be a risk due to the extreme changing weather and flooding. Beautiful house though 😊
i love this show!
Sea levels rising without doubt. I wouldn't buy a house so close to the edge of the sea!!
