Set on sought-after Dower Road, this three-bedroom mid-terrace offers practical family living with a generous rear garden and off-street parking for one car. The ground floor opens into a separate lounge and a bright open-plan kitchen/diner with sliding doors that extend living outdoors — ideal for children and family entertaining. Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern family bathroom with a P-shaped bath suited to family life.
The house is structurally typical of 1930s–1940s terraces with cavity walls and double glazing; heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or streaming. Local schools, shops and transport links are within easy reach, and the coast at Babbacombe Downs and St Marychurch precinct are a short distance away.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the property sits in a relatively deprived area, the cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, and there is a single family bathroom only. The plot and garden are generous, but internal living space is average at about 883 sq ft, so some buyers may wish to update or reconfigure rooms to maximise space and insulation.
This home will suit families or professionals looking for a well-located, ready-to-live-in house with scope to improve energy efficiency and personalise decor. A motivated seller may help a smooth transaction for buyers wanting a straightforward move into a popular family location.
