About
An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a substantial 0.26-acre holding Inside Frinton's Gates, comprising a six-bedroom detached residence together with two substantial additional buildings and approximately 7,400 sq in total.
At the heart of the property is an impressive six-bedroom detached family home extending to approximately 2,800 sq ft, with generous living accommodation, private rear garden, ample parking and a double garage.
What makes this property truly unique, however, are the two additional buildings: A single-storey workshop/factory of approximately 2,786 sq ft and a separate two-storey workshop/store of approximately 1,793 sq ft.
It is this extraordinary combination of location, land and existing buildings that creates such an exciting opportunity.
A purchaser could retain the substantial family home while exploring the potential of the additional buildings for business, investment or other uses, subject to any necessary consents.
For those with a bigger vision, the size and nature of the site also provide an exciting opportunity to investigate reconfiguration, subdivision or redevelopment, subject to planning permission.
Equally, the property could be retained as one substantial private holding, offering a level of space and versatility that is exceptionally difficult to find Inside the Gates.
This is not simply a six-bedroom house; it is an opportunity to acquire a unique piece of Frinton-on-Sea real estate with enormous potential.
Whether viewed as a family home, home-and-business opportunity, investment or future development project, it offers something increasingly rare: A property to be considered not only for what it is today, but for everything it could become.
