A Rare Development Opportunity Close to the Coast

Guide £425,000 - £450,000

Occupying a generous plot in a peaceful no-through road, just a short drive from the beach, this detached bungalow offers an exciting opportunity in one of Winchelsea Beach's most sought-after locations.

Whether you're looking to renovate and create your dream coastal home, extend the existing accommodation, or explore the development potential of the site (subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents), this is a property with endless possibilities.

The existing bungalow has been well maintained and is perfectly liveable, allowing a buyer to move straight in while planning the next chapter. With spacious accommodation, a detached studio annexe, generous gardens and excellent parking, it already has so much to offer, but it's easy to see the incredible potential this plot holds.

The accommodation is spacious and well laid out, offering generous rooms that provide an excellent foundation for any future plans. The kitchen is a particularly impressive space, fitted with an extensive range of units, providing plenty of cupboard and worktop space, together with a wood-fired stove and ample room for a family dining table. While perfectly functional, it offers an exciting opportunity to create a beautiful contemporary kitchen that could become the true heart of the home.

The dual-aspect sitting room is flooded with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming living space. A log burner provides a cosy focal point during the winter months, while the generous proportions comfortably accommodate both seating and dining areas, making it equally suited to everyday family life and entertaining.

There are two good-sized bedrooms, both enjoying plenty of natural light. The principal bedroom is a generous double, while the second bedroom offers flexibility as a guest room, children's bedroom or home office. They are served by a spacious family bathroom, complete with a large walk-in shower, which, like much of the property, offers scope for a new owner to update and personalise over time.

A real bonus is the detached studio annexe, adding another layer of flexibility to an already versatile property. Whether you're looking for accommodation for family or guests, a home office, treatment room, creative studio or even the potential to generate additional income, it provides a fantastic space that can adapt to a variety of needs.

Outside, the gardens wrap around the bungalow, offering plenty of space to enjoy throughout the seasons. Whether you're a keen gardener, enjoy entertaining family and friends or simply want somewhere peaceful to sit and relax, the outside space offers endless possibilities. The generous plot also provides scope to redesign or further enhance the gardens, or to explore extending the property, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

To the front, there is ample off-road parking for several vehicles, together with a garage and a selection of useful outbuildings,
