Set on a large elevated plot on Durley Road, this detached three-bedroom chalet bungalow offers generous, light-filled rooms and far-reaching countryside views with sea glimpses. The accommodation extends to about 1,911 sq ft, including a large reception hallway, sitting room, conservatory, spacious kitchen/breakfast room with utility, ground-floor double bedroom with en-suite, plus two first-floor double bedrooms. A double garage and a wide gravel driveway provide parking for several vehicles. The property is sold freehold and chain-free.
The house has been well cared for but requires cosmetic updating throughout, presenting an excellent opportunity for a buyer wanting to personalise a substantial home in a sought-after location. Note the property is an estate sale: agents cannot verify the working condition of the gas central heating system. The home benefits from double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators (status unconfirmed), cavity-filled walls and a low-maintenance rear garden with patio and mature borders.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are slow in the area and council tax is described as expensive. There is no flooding risk and local crime levels are very low. The setting is convenient for Seaton town centre, the esplanade and coastal walking, and nearby Colyton Grammar School is highly regarded for secondary education. For downsizers or those seeking a roomy single-level lifestyle with occasional first-floor bedrooms, this property combines space, parking and an elevated outlook, but requires renovation investment to modernise services and finishes.
For buyers seeking an attractive retirement or downsizing home with scope to add value through updating, this chalet bungalow delivers scale, privacy and coastal proximity. For purchasers wanting a fully turn-key property, factor in refurbishment costs and a check of heating and services before exchange.
