Tucked away on one of the most sought-after roads, this 3-bedroom detached residence offers incredible potential, although it’s in need of some further updating. The current owners began renovations but the project remains incomplete, meaning the property is ripe for someone with vision to transform it into a dream home with planning permission already in place for a major extension (P/2023/0264.) With spacious rooms, a generous garden, and ample parking, the possibilities are endless. While the interior requires attention, the location alone makes this a rare opportunity to secure a home in an enviable neighbourhood. This is perfect for those looking for a project in a prime spot.

The internal accommodation briefly comprises of a spacious reception hallway, an open plan living area that seamlessly integrates with a contemporary fitted kitchen with integral appliances and a separate utility room. From the lounge, there is also access to a beautiful sunroom which enjoys wonderful sea views with access to an expansive timber decked sun terrace enclosed by glass balustrading and a feature pergola area, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining both family and friends.
Upstairs, the property boasts three double bedrooms as well as a family bathroom with separate WC.


Outside, as well as the sun terrace, steps lead down to a good sized and level rear garden, mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by timber fencing and hedges, providing a tranquil outdoor space. Additionally, two separate external rooms to the rear offer potential for a variety of uses, whether as home offices, studios, or hobby spaces.
