The ground floor includes a superb open-plan Kitchen/ Dining room with bi-fold doors opening onto the garden complemented by an adjacent snug. There is a delightful separate sitting room and study, together with a useful utility room and shower room. On the first floor, the spacious landing provides a further study area, whilst three generously proportioned double bedrooms include a principal bedroom with its own dressing area and private shower room. A well-appointed separate family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. There is existing planning consent for an attic conversion incorporating a large dormer window to create a fourth bedroom plus storage room, with potential for this to be adapted to a fifth bedroom subject to the necessary consents. Situated within the heart of this popular coastal village on tree lined Worsley Road, the property enjoys excellent proximity to village shops, café, church and local pub all within close reach. The popular sailing club, beachside village green and a further pub are also only a short walk away.
