About
An absolutely stunning and commanding residence, occupying a prime corner position on Lidden Road and Donnington Road within a highly sought-after 5-star postcode.
Dating back to the 1920s, this impressive home boasts substantial, well-proportioned rooms and an abundance of character throughout.
The ground floor offers generous and versatile living accommodation, including a spacious living room, formal dining room, and kitchen, alongside a sunroom that enjoys an abundance of natural light.
There is also a utility room, two convenient W/Cs, and a range of useful storage cupboards.
To the first floor, the property continues to impress with a large principal bedroom complete with en-suite, a further exceptionally spacious double bedroom, and two additional bedrooms.
A family shower room serves the remaining accommodation. Notably, all front-facing windows benefit from delightful sea views, adding to the home’s appeal.
Externally, the property features a gated driveway providing ample off-road parking, along with a detached garage.
The magnificent, generously sized gardens are a true highlight, offering a wonderful sense of privacy along with beautiful sea views—perfect for enjoying the coastal setting.
While the property would benefit from modernisation, it is well-maintained, clean, and entirely liveable, presenting an exciting opportunity for buyers to update and create a truly exceptional home in a prestigious location.
