Property description
Situated a few minutes walk from the beach and pier, 'The Ark' is a detached three bedroom house offered for sale having been recently refurbished throughout. The property offers light and comfortable living space over two floors with the adaptability to use the ground floor as one bedroom B & B accommodation with it's own private entrance. Further benefits include two sunny terraces, a garage, combi gas central heating and Upvc double glazing. 'The Ark' is a quirky property and is beautifully presented, we therefore anticipate a great deal of interest so early viewing is recommended.
Description
The Ark was built in the late 19th Century and was later extended to create the most appealing property that we see today. The house has a quirky almost maritime feel about it with the two terraces either end (aft and stern). Our clients have sympathetically refurbished the property throughout whilst carefully maintaining the character and charm. Benefiting from newly installed double glazing and combi gas fired central heating (new boiler), the light and cheerful accommodation comprises - Newly created front door into a cosy entrance lobby with hardwood oak flooring and a glazed door opening to the stairs. Turn left into bedroom three (presently a study/sitting room) again with attractive hardwood oak flooring and turn right off the entrance lobby to bedroom two with hardwood oak flooring and a door to the delightful en-suite bathroom with slate floor tiling, underfloor heating, a charming white 'Victoriana' suite with a roll top claw foot bath, over-bath shower, vanity unit with circular wash hand basin and door to the mini court yard. There is also a door off the bathroom to a separate Wc. Stairs lead from the entrance lobby to the first floor and the most impressive light and airy open plan lounge/kitchen/diner enjoying front and side aspect. The lounge area is carpeted with a feature multi-fuel stove on a slate hearth and then the accommodation sweeps through to the kitchen/dining area with it's outer door to the kitchen terrace, oak effect laminate flooring and attractive recently fitted kitchen. The kitchen provides an excellent range of painted solid wood wall and base kitchen units complimented by solid oak (butchers block style) work surfacing. There is also a focal island unit, a traditional ceramic sink, an integrated dishwasher and a built-in fan assisted electric oven with a 4 ring gas hob. A door then leads through from the lounge area to bedroom one with it's en-suite shower and double doors leading out to the main terrace, an ideal area to relax and enjoy al-fresco dining on those warm and balmy summer days/evenings. The utility area off the kitchen terrace is very useful and a garage is quite a luxury in this part of the town. This is most definitely a property that in our opinion would appeal to those who require a comfortable home with some outside space but without the chore of maintaining gardens. As aforementioned, the accommodation also provides the flexibility to utilise the ground floor as one bedroom B & B accommodation. A list of all the recent refurbishment works can be provided upon request.
