Large family home near schools, station and beach.
Five bedrooms across circa 2,013 sq ft family layout
Spacious Victorian semi-detached house offering five bedrooms across circa 2,013 sq ft, arranged for flexible family living. High ceilings, bay windows and period detailing give the property strong character and scope to create impressive reception spaces. The kitchen is contemporary and practical, and there’s the convenience of an ensuite, separate utility and two reception rooms for everyday life.
Externally the house benefits from off-street parking and a garden suitable for children and summer entertaining. The location is a key strength: close to highly rated primary schools, the train station for commuters and a short drive to Dovercourt’s blue flag beach.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property sits in a very deprived area with above-average local crime; the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and will require upgrading for thermal efficiency; the plot is modest and the building is described in mixed condition, so some refurbishment is likely. This makes the home best suited to families wanting space and character who are prepared to invest in improvement, or investors targeting rental demand in a town-centre location.
Offered freehold with a guide of £280,000–£300,000, the house presents clear upside for those seeking a large family home near schools and transport, but realistic budgeting for renovation and security considerations is essential.
