Description

This end-of-terrace, bay-fronted house dates back to the turn of the last century and offers a blend of character and potential in a desirable location that overlooks local allotments and The Byes. Available for sale for the first time in four decades, this property is ready for its next chapter, with gas central heating already in place and no onward chain. Upon entering, you'll find a welcoming hallway leading to a spacious sitting room featuring a bay window that captures easterly views over the allotments. Adjacent to this is a separate dining area, which flows into the kitchen equipped with fitted units and space allocated for essential appliances like a cooker and fridge. The covered side return provides additional utility space and storage options, along with a convenient WC and access to the rear garden. The first floor comprises two well-sized double bedrooms. The main bedroom also benefits from a charming bay window with views overlooking the surrounding green spaces, while the second bedroom is comfortably sized. A bathroom and separate WC complete this level. Outside, you’ll find low-maintenance gravel gardens at the front, while the rear features a west-facing patio garden complete with a brick shed—ideal for outdoor relaxation or additional storage. This property is situated in an enviable location directly opposite The Byes and River Sid, offering easy access to picturesque pathways that lead towards the town center. Local amenities are within reach including bus services on nearby Temple Street, as well as conveniences like a Spar store/post office and the popular Volunteer Inn—all just a short walk away. Sidmouth's vibrant town center and seafront are also located less than a mile away, providing residents with various shops, dining options, recreational facilities, and more. Given its age and current condition, this house presents significant renovation opportunities for prospective buyers looking to tailor it to their personal taste or enhance its investment value. With thoughtful updates throughout—whether modernizing interiors or reimagining outdoor spaces—this property can be transformed into an inviting home that retains its historic charm while accommodating contemporary living standards.
