About this property

    Unique opportunity to acquire a property which is currently separated into 2 apartments with parking and gardens just a stone’s throw from the town centre with redevelopment potential for many uses (subject to planning permission)

    The Property:
    A rare opportunity in the heart of Seaton, this substantial detached property offers a unique and exciting opportunity just moments from the high street, beach, and the full range of local amenities. Set in a highly accessible location, it is ideally positioned for a wide variety of future uses, whether residential, commercial, or a blend of both (pending the appropriate planning permissions)

    Currently arranged as two purpose-built, self-contained apartments, each with its own private entrance, the property provides exceptional flexibility. Whether you envision reconfiguring, refurbishing, or expanding, this space invites transformation.

    To the rear, there is additional land with the potential for development (subject to planning). The current owner holds drawings by an award-winning riba practice for a beautifully designed dwelling with dedicated parking (available on request). Alternatively, the space could become a vibrant commercial venture, i.e. A dog grooming salon, floral boutique, artist’s studio, or even a mobile takeaway business serving Seaton’s visitors and locals.

    Historically, the site served as a builder’s yard, which adds depth and character to this large plot and broadens its redevelopment potential.

    The ground floor apartment is currently arranged as a spacious one-bedroom. Its generous proportions provide clear potential to be reconfigured into a two-bedroom layout, instantly increasing both its appeal and value.

    The upper apartment spans two floors and includes two bedrooms with elevated views towards the coast. There’s ample room for further enhancement, whether through the addition of a third bedroom or the creation of a rooftop terrace with sea views. Both apartments enjoy their own outdoor spaces: The ground floor has a private garden, while the upper floor benefits from a courtyard garden.

    Outside:
    To the front, there is hardstanding with off-road parking for several vehicles. A side driveway leads to the rear of the property, where a spacious open area is framed by a historic stone wall. Part of this rear space is currently divided into two garden areas, one for each apartment (see site plan for details).

    Nb: Both apartments are held under separate titles.
