Description

A wonderfully versatile and characterful home offering impressive space across two floors, currently arranged as two self-contained living areas yet easily adaptable into a substantial family residence. The property requires renovation but provides an excellent opportunity to create something entirely your own. Beautiful features such as elegant bay-fronted reception rooms, feature fireplaces, and a wide staircase create a sense of period charm, while generous bedrooms, sea views and flexible living spaces offer exceptional lifestyle potential.

Occupying a notably wide plot, the property boasts excellent kerb appeal with a recently re-rendered façade and attractive garden frontage extending to the sides. Practicality meets potential with a garage, off-street parking for multiple vehicles, and a secure fenced garden area currently ideal for pets, all offering plenty of outdoor versatility.

Perfectly positioned in the prestigious Chalkwell area, this home enjoys an enviable lifestyle setting close to Chalkwell Park and the seafront. Commuters will appreciate the short walk to Chalkwell Station with direct links into London, while nearby The Ridgeway provides a vibrant selection of independent cafés, restaurants, and everyday amenities.

Step inside an intriguing and versatile home brimming with possibility. Currently arranged as two spacious, self-contained living spaces with separate entrances, the property could equally be enjoyed as one substantial family residence. A large entrance hall immediately sets the tone with its generous proportions. To the left lies a charming lounge, beautifully framed by a grand bay window and enhanced by an attractive fireplace feature that creates a warm focal point. Continuing through the hallway, a bathroom offers ample space for a comfortable three-piece suite. Further along, the kitchen and adjoining utility areas provide practical day-to-day functionality, with convenient access out to the rear of the property. Completing the ground floor to the right is an elegant living room, another wonderfully bright space featuring a beautiful bay window and classic fireplace. This room would make a superb family hub for entertaining or relaxing together. From here, a doorway leads to the stairwell rising to the first floor and a secondary front entrance, reinforcing the property’s flexible layout.

The second bedroom is a generously sized double with excellent space for wardrobes and furnishings, while the third bedroom also offers comfortable double accommodation. A fourth bedroom provides a versatile space, perfect as a nursery, dressing room, or productive home office. This floor also features a compact kitchen and a bathroom, complemented by a separate W/C, ensuring convenience for all bedrooms.

Exterior

Occupying an impressively wide plot, the property enjoys outstanding kerb appeal and a strong sense of presence. The front façade has been re-rendered in recent years, giving the home a fresh and attractive finish.

Practical features include a garage and off-street parking for a couple of vehicles, while a fenced section of the garden is currently arranged as a secure area for pets. The outdoor space offers both usability and potential for many different landscape configurations.
