Wish You Were Here

Can there be more? For sure.

Margate is changing and there’s never been a better time to locate or invest in the town. The birthplace of the British seaside is undergoing a renaissance and the town is about to boom.

By 2009, a new high speed rail link will substantially reduce the journey times to London. Kent International Airport is only ten minutes away and the existing road links to the motorway network are excellent. But there’s much more to Margate than good transport links.

Since 2001, house prices in Margate have risen by over 115%, out performing the rest of Kent and the south east. The town is also home to some of the most stylish housing stock in the region, added to which, major public sector investment is helping to kick start some of the region’s best development opportunities.

In 2010, Turner Contemporary will be opening an international art gallery of world class design celebrating the life and work of one of Britain’s best loved artists, JMW Turner.  Already, the Old Town is becoming hip and fashionable, with all the commercial opportunities that this implies.
