5 Bedroom Detached House

FIVE BEDROOM HOUSE WITH ANNEX CLOSE TO THE SHOPS & BEACH IDEAL COHABITING, AIRBNB OR WORK FROM HOME. Situated in a great position between the vibrant shopping parade of Southbourne Grove, with its array of cosmopolitan cafés, bars, restaurants and independent shops, and the breathtaking clifftops leading down to Southbourne’s award-winning sandy beaches, this exceptional home truly offers the best of coastal and town living. Properties of this character and scale are rarely available. Built in an era when generous proportions and craftsmanship were paramount, the house boasts impressively spacious rooms, high ceilings throughout, and a wealth of original features. Modern comforts blend seamlessly with period charm, including double glazing and gas central heating.



Upon entering through the porch, you are welcomed into a magnificent hallway featuring high ceilings, a tiled floor, an ornate staircase rising to the first floor, and a beautiful original stained-glass window and door. The ground floor offers superb living accommodation comprising two elegant reception rooms to the front aspect, plus a further dining room to the rear adjacent to the fitted kitchen. A separate utility room and a convenient ground floor cloakroom complete this level. From the stunning first-floor landing, there are four generously sized double bedrooms and two bathrooms (including one en-suite). Stairs then rise to the second floor, where you will find an additional, exceptionally large double bedroom, ideal as a principal suite, guest room or teenager’s retreat.



To the side of the property stands a detached brick-built annex with a pitched tiled roof matching the main house. Currently arranged as a gym/workout studio with an office above, it offers fantastic flexibility and could be adapted for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, a workspace, or a potential Airbnb opportunity (subject to the necessary permissions).



Externally, the property benefits from multiple off-road parking spaces to the front. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a patio area, perfect for outdoor dining and gated side access.



A home of this calibre, combining character, space, location and versatility, must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
