A solid 1930s detached family home close to the beach and local amenities. The house offers three double bedrooms, separate lounge and dining rooms, and a large rear garden — a practical layout for family life and entertaining. A garage and off-street parking add convenience for several cars.
The property is freehold, on an average-sized plot with decent garden space and no flood risk. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are both strong here, and several well-rated primary schools are within easy reach, making this suitable for families who value coastal access and local schooling.
There are some practical drawbacks to note: the home dates from the 1930–49 period and the cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so heating costs may be higher than modern standards. There is one shower room plus a separate WC only, and the property will likely benefit from modernisation in parts. The local area shows above-average crime rates and higher area deprivation indicators, which prospective buyers should consider alongside the price.
Overall this is a ready-to-live-in period detached with scope to improve energy efficiency and interior finishes. It will suit buyers seeking a spacious family home near the sea who are comfortable with some updating and attentive to local community factors.
