Description
This spacious and adaptable home offers well-proportioned accommodation with excellent potential to create a ground floor annexe if desired. On the ground floor, there’s a generous dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast room at the front, while a large living room at the rear connects to a dining room and a conservatory that opens onto the rear garden. Also on this level are two bedrooms (one currently used as a study), a shower room, utility room, and an integral workshop, which was formerly the garage. Upstairs, there are four good-sized bedrooms. One benefits from an en suite shower room, and there’s scope to create a second en suite for Bedroom 1. A further shower room completes the first floor. Outside, the property features gardens to both the front and rear, with ample off-road parking at the front. The large rear garden also includes several useful outbuildings, adding to the home’s appeal and practicality.
Location - Set on the desirable Bay Road, New Haven is just a short stroll from Freshwater Bay’s beach, where you’ll find the newly refurbished Albion Hotel and Restaurant, an 18-hole golf course, and the welcoming Freshwater Gate Café.

Within a few minutes’ walk are local favourites like Orchard Brothers general store and the popular Piano Café, along with the protected Afton Nature Reserve.
