Its south facing position means that it would be ideal for hosting barbecues or enjoying a day in the back garden with family and friends.

The decor is slightly dated but with a touch up the house could be brought back to life and modernised with relative ease.

Wood panelling is found throughout the home that is spread across two floors and one double bedroom comes with a small Tardis like shower box within it.

Warners who are advertising the property through ESPC, said: “Exceptionally light and spacious Victorian cottage style villa retaining lovely period features, boasting a prime tucked away position with south facing aspect to front and a superb choice of fashionable shops and eateries and a scenic sandy beach all within walking distance.

“Viewing is essential to appreciate the deceptively spacious accommodation within this superb family home.

“The interior is much enhanced by period features including fireplaces, fine examples of decorative cornice work and stripped wood doors.

“Plenty of public living space is provided, including a large living room flooded with sunlight through the south-facing bay window and a formal dining room.

“All six bedrooms are good sized doubles, with two located at ground floor level and four on the upper floor.

“There's a family bathroom upstairs and a downstairs WC facility.

“Private outdoor space includes a well screened front garden laid with chipped stones, which is not overlooked and is an ideal place to sit out, and the fully enclosed and well stocked rear garden with patio area.”

There is also unrestricted on street parking at the property.
