Set on the seafront in Gardenstown, this large three-bedroom town house offers direct sea views and walking distance to the beach. The property is freehold, spread over multiple storeys with bay windows and period character from the early 20th century. Its size and layout create clear scope for refurbishment or conversion to generate rental or holiday-let income.
The house requires renovation throughout: cosmetic and likely mechanical upgrades are needed, the EPC is band E, and heating is by oil with a multi-fuel stove. Council tax is above average for the area. The property is a weathered fixer-upper in a very deprived local area, so buyers should factor in refurbishment costs and the wider market context when planning works.
Income potential is a principal draw — the location close to local amenities, harbour and tourist services supports holiday or long-term lets. Mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are average, useful for remote working or letting. This will suit investors or experienced DIY buyers seeking a seaside project with scope to add value, or anyone prepared to undertake a full refurbishment to restore period features and improve energy performance.
