Tucked just off Southbourne Grove, this chain-free two-bedroom semi delivers easy coastal living in a compact, turn-key package. Converted around 15 years ago from a period commercial building, it blends character features — vaulted ceilings and exposed beams — with contemporary finishes and integrated kitchen appliances. The upstairs open-plan living area enjoys strong natural light and stripped wood flooring, creating an immediate wow factor for entertaining or relaxing.
Both bedrooms are double-sized and presented in immaculate condition; the principal bedroom opens onto a very small, low-maintenance courtyard ideal for al fresco dining. Practical systems are in place including a gas combi boiler, double glazing (installed post-2002) and built-in storage for bins and outdoor essentials. The property’s freehold tenure and chain-free status make it straightforward to move into.
Location is a genuine strength: quiet lane setting yet footsteps from independent shops, cafés and transport on Southbourne Grove, with award-winning sandy beaches within comfortable walking distance. This makes the home suitable as a stylish main residence, easy coastal retreat or a lettable investment close to amenities.
Notable drawbacks are factual: the plot is very small with limited outdoor space, and the immediate area records above-average crime — factors to consider for buyers prioritising gardens or maximum privacy. The home’s compact footprint and multi-storey layout also limit expansion potential. No flooding risk is reported.
