Property Information

This substantial arts and crafts period home is situated just yards from the seafront and offers an impressive footprint that exceeds many detached properties.
A large entrance hall welcomes you with an attractive balustrade staircase and features an original bench seat and original stained glass windows which prove to be a real focal point.
Two exceptionally large reception rooms lie to the front and rear of the property, whilst a kitchen/breakfast room and cloakroom conclude the generous ground floor.
Upstairs you will find four fantastic bedrooms and a family bathroom. Bedrooms Two & Three open onto a balcony overlooking the rear garden. A staircase rises to the second floor which presents the 'Master Suite' all on its own private floor with stunning sea views via velux balconies and an en-suite shower room.
The 42' x 32' (12.94m x 9.85m) rear garden offers a great space to enjoy and is a superb size for its location.
Properties like this so close to the seafront are hard to come by, we highly advise an early viewing appointment to avoid disappointment.
