A substantial five-bedroom Victorian semi in Meads Village, set over three floors and positioned adjacent to Meads seafront. The house offers generous ceiling heights, a 39' double-aspect lounge/dining room, large kitchen with adjoining sun room, and a master bedroom with elevated sea views across Helen Gardens. Period sash-style windows and bay fronts give the house character while the layout suits multi-generation or large-family living.
Practical benefits include gas central heating, UPVC sash-style double glazing and a useful utility/ground-floor WC. Outside space is low-maintenance: an enclosed front forecourt and a paved rear courtyard with gated access. Local amenities, good independent schools and direct seafront access make this location particularly attractive to families wanting coastal living with city-town convenience.
The property is offered freehold and spans about 2,445 sq ft, but it should be viewed to assess condition and room proportions. The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (period construction), so there may be running-cost and comfort improvements to consider. Council tax is higher than average; buyers should budget for that and for potential modernisation in places despite many retained period features.
Overall this is a roomy, characterful family home in a very affluent, low-crime area close to the sea. It will suit buyers seeking space, period detail and coastal proximity who are prepared to update some elements for modern thermal efficiency and convenience.
