Set on a large plot close to Stokes Bay and Foster Gardens, this extended five-bedroom detached home offers generous family living across approximately 1,913 sq ft. The ground floor provides a roomy lounge/diner, conservatory, fitted kitchen, utility room and a study that can serve as a sixth bedroom. Upstairs are five double bedrooms and a family bathroom, giving flexibility for families or multi‑generational use.
Practical advantages include a long driveway, garage, enclosed rear garden and double glazing with mains gas central heating. There is clear scope to extend further (subject to planning) if you need more living space or want to create an en suite principal bedroom. The property is freehold and being sold chain free, which can speed a move.
Location is a strong selling point: walking distance to Stokes Bay beach, nearby green spaces, local amenities and bus routes. It sits within the Bay House School catchment and close to several primary schools rated Good, making it well suited to families.
Note the important considerations: council tax is Band F (expensive) and the local secondary (Bay House School) is currently rated “Requires improvement” by Ofsted. The wider area is classified as ageing urban communities, which may affect long‑term demographic character. Buyers should also confirm any desired extension works with the local planning authority.
