With its prime location, residents can enjoy being just a short distance from local amenities and beautiful coastal walks.

As you approach the property, there is a driveway on either side, immediately highlighting the home’s excellent kerb appeal. Upon entering the property, the reception room is located to the left.
This generously sized space benefits from a large bay window, along with an additional window on the opposite wall, allowing an abundance of natural light to fill the room.
The reception room has been tastefully decorated with half-panelled walls and patterned wallpaper, creating a stylish yet welcoming atmosphere.
A centrally positioned wood-burning stove makes this room an ideal space for relaxing.
Leading through to the dining room, the property continues to offer a warm and homely feel, with ample space for dining and entertaining.
The room features neutral décor and retains character through an original chimney breast recess, currently used for log storage.
From the dining room, access is provided to the kitchen, which also offers rear access to the garden.
The kitchen has black granite effect worktops, black floor tiles and wood cabinets making for a striking effect.
Completing the downstairs floorplan is two bedrooms and the main bathroom facilitating for this property to be used as a true bungalow with all one floor living if required.
