Description

This detached bungalow, located on the desirable Douglas Avenue in Exmouth, presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. Surrounded by impressive wrap-around gardens that enhance its appeal, this two-bedroom home is ideal for various buyers, including retirees or those searching for a second home with the scope to extend or modernize (subject to planning permissions). The property greets you with a private driveway and attached garage, ensuring practicality without sacrificing charm. The outdoor space boasts plenty of sunlight along with beautifully landscaped areas that provide privacy and ample room for gardening enthusiasts or entertaining guests. Inside, the layout flows from a central hallway that leads to all major rooms. The family bathroom features contemporary fittings but may benefit from some updates to maximize comfort. Each of the two double bedrooms is well-sized; the master at the rear includes an en-suite shower bathroom which could be refreshed or reconfigured. The generous lounge/dining area with its feature fireplace is filled with natural light thanks to large windows and French doors that create a seamless connection to the garden – a perfect setting for hosting or quiet relaxation. The kitchen offers decent storage and work surfaces but might require modernization to meet today’s standards; it connects conveniently to a lovely conservatory overlooking the verdant landscape outside, which could be transformed into a year-round enjoyment space. With local conveniences just a short walk away and the stunning seafront within easy reach, this bungalow not only embodies coastal charm but also represents a promising investment opportunity in one of Exmouth's finest neighborhoods.
