Set directly on Burnham-on-Sea’s Esplanade, this Grade II listed Victorian townhouse has been sensitively refurbished to combine period detail with modern comfort. High ceilings, ornate cornices and tall arched windows frame far-reaching sea views from the principal rooms. The current layout includes a self-contained lower-ground apartment, giving genuine flexibility for dual-occupancy or rental income.
Recent renovations have delivered contemporary services and conveniences: gas central heating, ultrafast FTTP broadband and a discreet EV charging point. The property sits on a small plot with a walled courtyard garden and off-street parking for two cars—rare for a seafront terrace. Flood risk is low and the house benefits from direct promenade access and easy reach of local shops and leisure amenities.
There are important practical considerations: the listed status will restrict external and some internal alterations, which may complicate significant remodelling or extension. Council Tax is band E (above average) and the local area records higher-than-average crime and pockets of deprivation — factors to weigh for families or investors. The compact plot and limited private outdoor space may not suit buyers seeking large gardens.
Overall this is a striking, substantial seafront home for buyers who prioritise character, views and location. It will particularly suit households wanting flexible accommodation (main house plus basement apartment) or purchasers seeking a distinctive primary or second residence by the coast.
