DESCRIPTION: Occupying a prominent position on The Beacon, this handsome period town house offers an exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial home with generous accommodation, sea views and the rare benefit of a large garage, all within a short walk of Exmouth's seafront and town centre.
Offered with no onward chain, the property is now ready for updating and modernisation. Arranged over four floors, the property retains much of its original character, including sash windows, fireplaces and well-proportioned rooms. The accommodation includes a spacious dining room, large kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, two impressive first-floor reception rooms and four double bedrooms.
Particularly noteworthy are the elevated views enjoyed from the upper floors. The principal bedroom benefits from far-reaching views across Exmouth towards Dawlish Warren and along the coastline, while several rear-facing rooms enjoy attractive views towards Holy Trinity Church.
Outside, there is a private courtyard garden with rear access, providing a sheltered and low-maintenance outdoor space.
A standout feature of the property is the substantial garage, accessed directly from Beacon Place via an electric door. Rarely available within this central location, it offers secure parking for two vehicles along with excellent storage space.
Combining impressive room sizes, period character, sea views and parking, this is a property with enormous potential and an increasingly rare opportunity to create a landmark home in one of Exmouth's most desirable settings.
