Description
Offering an exceptional amount of accommodation arranged entirely across one level, this impressive home combines generous living space with established gardens, extensive parking and an attractive open aspect. The accommodation includes four bedrooms, two spacious reception rooms, a substantial kitchen/dining room, utility room, family bathroom, two en-suite shower rooms and separate W.C.
One of the property's most interesting features is the potential to create two distinct living areas whilst retaining the property as one dwelling. By introducing a lockable door between the kitchen and utility room, the principal accommodation could provide a lounge, kitchen/dining room, three bedrooms, en-suite, family bathroom and W.C., while the adjoining area could offer its own lounge, en-suite bedroom and potential kitchen within the existing utility room. Both areas already have independent external access, making this an appealing option for multi-generational living, private guest accommodation or potentially living in one part while holiday letting the other, subject to any necessary consents and requirements.
The property has an established history as a successful holiday let, attracting year-round bookings and returning guests. Its spacious single-storey layout has proved particularly suited to larger groups, families, guests with varying mobility requirements and wellness and yoga retreats. Established local cleaners, linen providers and hot tub management are also in place and may offer useful continuity for a purchaser wishing to continue the holiday-let operation. The hot tub is not included in the sale but may be available by separate negotiation.
At the heart of the home is the generous kitchen/dining room, fitted with a range of contemporary units with ample space for a substantial dining table and a range-style cooker forming an attractive focal point. An adjoining utility room provides further practical space.
The principal living room is particularly impressive, extending to approximately 29'8" and offering excellent space for both entertaining and relaxing. Multiple windows take advantage of the open aspect, French doors lead directly outside, and a log-burning stove provides a welcoming focal point. A separate second lounge offers further valuable reception space.
All four bedrooms are well proportioned, with both Bedroom One and Bedroom Two benefiting from private en-suite shower rooms. A stylish family bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower enclosure serves the remaining bedrooms, complemented by an additional separate W.C.
Outside, the property occupies a generous plot with established gardens extending around the bungalow. Lawns are complemented by mature shrubs, trees and colourful planting, while a substantial driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
To the rear, an extensive decked entertaining area provides an excellent setting for outdoor dining and relaxation, taking full advantage of the attractive open aspect across the adjoining land.
Land within the wider vicinity is subject to a proposed residential development (Planning Reference: 25/02194/FUL). The submitted layout shows open space and landscaping beyond the property, with the principal housing positioned further away.
Seahouses offers an excellent range of shops, cafés, restaurants and pubs, together with its working harbour and famous boat trips to the Farne Islands. The outstanding Northumberland coastline is on the doorstep, with Bamburgh and Beadnell both within easy reach.
Combining a substantial footprint, exceptional single-storey accommodation, established gardens and a highly adaptable layout, this is a distinctive coastal home offering considerable scope as a private residence, multi-generational home or holiday-let opportunity. Early viewing is highly recommended.
