Description

This four-bedroom detached family home is set on a generously sized plot in the desirable Uphill Village, offering an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. The property is conveniently located within easy walking distance of local attractions, including a nature reserve, Uphill Boatyard and Beach, as well as various reputable restaurants, pubs, and schools. Its strategic positioning also provides great commuter access, making it suitable for both families and professionals. While the house does require modernization throughout, this presents a unique chance to enhance its potential. The expansive outdoor space allows for numerous possibilities such as extensions to the rear or side of the property, or even converting the sizable loft area (subject to necessary permissions). With creative vision and thoughtful updates, this home could be transformed into a remarkable residence in one of the South West's most sought-after coastal areas. The layout includes a welcoming entrance hall leading to a good-sized lounge with ample natural light from the front aspect bay window. There's also a spacious dining room that opens into a conservatory, providing access to the private rear garden. The kitchen is functional but could benefit from an update to maximize its utilization alongside the utility room that offers additional storage and laundry facilities. Upstairs features four well-proportioned bedrooms along with a family shower room. Each bedroom is equipped with windows that permit natural light while offering views of either the front or rear garden. Access to the large loft space adds further appeal, presenting an opportunity for conversion into additional living space if desired. Externally, there is driveway parking available for multiple vehicles, with additional potential for expansion beyond the double gates at the side of the house. The backyard is particularly notable for its size and privacy; it comprises mainly lawned areas alongside established planting and includes a shed as well as extra space that could be utilized for future development (subject to planning consent). In summary, this property not only provides immediate family living space but also substantial potential for future enhancement or reconfiguration—making it an attractive option for those looking to invest in their next project in an enviable location. Early viewing is advisable to fully appreciate all that this property has to offer.
