About
An imposing, Grade II Listed, five storey house occupying a superb position on the seafront with uninterrupted sea views. For modernisation but with tremendous potential.
Summary Offered for sale with no ongoing chain, this attractive, red brick house is one of very few sea-facing houses not to have been converted to apartments.
The front elevation features a broad bay window and first floor balcony with a Regency style canopy.
Once inside, the property offers flexible accommodation arranged over five floors and could easily lend itself to multi-generational living or be seen as a blank canvas for reorganising to suit individual taste.
Summary (Cont..) In summary the accommodation comprises a large kitchen/dining room with utility room and store, a sitting room and study at esplanade level, a first floor sitting room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, a second floor main bedroom with adjoining bathroom and finally on the top floor, two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
The house has much character, with the ground, first and second floors having high ceilings, tall sash windows and further period features to include an original front door and entrance vestibule with Minton tile floor.
Needless to say, views from the front elevation at any level are breathtaking and from the balcony there is a 180° outlook stretching from east to west up and down the Jurassic Coastline - a Unesco World Heritage Site.
Outside To the rear of the house is pedestrian access from York Street via a secure gate, passing a single garage belonging to the property and measuring 3m x 4.2m.
