3 bed semi-detached house for sale

King Street, Embo IV25

This three bedroom semi-detached home in the coastal village of Embo is perfect for families looking for a quiet escape. With a separate living room and dining room, kitchen, utility room, a ground floor bedroom plus two more on the first floor, it has everything you could need. Dating from around 1900, the accommodation is spread over one and a half storeys, with private garden ground to the rear and across the road to the front, with a timber summer house and additional shed as well.

Inside, at the front is the dining room which has plenty of room for a full sized table and chairs. It has light coloured painted walls, a grey carpet and two windows on the outside walls. It’s a cosy room that could equally be used as an additional lounge space if required.

The kitchen has an unusual layout, with the cabinets and worktops split across three separate parts of the room rather than one continuous run. White wall and base cabinets are matched with timber effect worktops. These are complemented by grey metro tiles which the line walls as splashbacks. The stainless steel sink sits beneath the window, with space for appliances such as a dishwasher below. Across the room, two Bosch ovens are built in at eye level, with the hob alongside. A third section of cabinets and worktop sits separately against the opposite wall, with shelves fitted on either side. It’s a stylish room with real character.

A door at the rear of the kitchen leads into the living room. This is a large room with light coloured walls and carpet. The room is flooded with natural light thanks to large windows running along two sides of the room and French doors that open into the garden. An electric fire is fitted into a white surround on the wall alongside, with spotlights across the ceiling.

The first of the three bedrooms can be found on the ground floor and also leads off the kitchen. This is a large double room with white walls and a light carpet. There are windows on two sides, while the far end opens into a separate area that has a built in storage space with timber louvred doors. On the internal wall is a tall modern white vertical radiator, while opposite is a glazed door that leads through to the utility room.

The utility is a narrow room with fitted storage along one side and space for laundry appliances beneath the worktop. There’s a window at the far end and an external UPVC door opening out to the garden.

Also on the ground floor is the shower room. This has a curved corner shower cubicle on one side with a toilet and basin fitted into a timber fronted vanity unit opposite. White tiles cover the walls around the vanity area with light coloured wetwall panels around the shower. Two tall chrome heated towel radiators are fitted to keep the space warm.

Upstairs there are two further bedrooms. Bedroom two is a double with cream walls and a large window set into the sloping roofline. One whole wall is fitted with built-in wardrobes, with multiple white panelled doors giving you plenty of storage. This bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, with a shower cubicle at the far end and a toilet and pedestal basin alongside. There’s a built-in cupboard beneath the slope of the roof which is a great place to keep towels or bathroom essentials.

The third bedroom is a smaller single room, finished with white walls and a light carpet. A large dormer window sits within the sloping roofline, with the shape of the ceiling continuing down on either side.

The home has UPVC windows and external doors, while the heating is provided by an external oil fired boiler, supplying the radiators and a pressurised hot water cylinder which can be found in a ground floor cupboard.

Outside you’ll find a paved patio which runs around the side of the house. Low brick walls separate the patio from the lawn and raised planted beds, with fully grown hedges along the boundary. A timber summer house sits at the far end, with glazed double doors and windows looking back across the garden. There is also further garden ground on the other side of the road at the front, where a large gravelled area has space for bins and storage or a car, along with an additional timber shed.

For anyone looking for a home in a beautiful coastal location, with miles of sprawling golden beaches just a few steps away, then this home at 15 King Street is for you. Contact Hamish Homes today to register your interest and to arrange your private viewing.
