Minimalist design, painted white throughout with grey vinyl flooring, exceedingly high ceilings, enormous windows and a wood-burning stove. Potential scope to alter existing internal walls, with appropriate consents, to create a 2-bedroom home. Built 2 years ago, this home has not yet been lived in as it was temporarily used as a community facility.
In a great location within a few minutes’ walk of the dunes, forest, theatre, café and shop.
