This substantial 4-bedroom chalet bungalow sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Highview, Freshwater, offering generous accommodation across about 1,497 sq ft and a large plot with sunny rear garden. The detached layout and garage provide practical family space and off-street parking, while the sizeable rooms and upstairs bedrooms suit multi-generational living or flexible home working.
The property is offered for sale by Modern Auction and is in need of renovation and modernisation throughout. Key practical facts: oil-fired boiler and radiators, double glazing of unknown age, cavity walls assumed without insulation — all of which are likely to require upgrading. Buyers should factor in refurbishment costs and planned insulation/heating works to modernise running costs and comfort.
Important sale terms: the sale is by Modern Auction with an undisclosed Reserve Price. Bidders must sign a reservation agreement and pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.2% of the purchase price (minimum £6,000) plus a possible £349 pack preparation fee. The buyer must complete within 56 days of the draft contract and carry out their own due diligence — the Buyer Information Pack may not include everything.
For a family wanting to personalise a roomy, detached home within walking distance of Freshwater village amenities and Good-rated primary schools, this property presents strong scope. For investors or renovators, the large plot and traditional layout offer clear refurbishment potential, but budgets must allow for modernisation, insulation and heating improvements alongside the auction fees and conditions.
