Absolute Wellswood are proud to introduce Apartment 4 at Sunny Rae Villa, an exceptional show home within an exclusive new development of 11 stunning apartments by the award-winning, family-owned builders McCarthy Homes. Prices start from £235,000 for a 2 bed apartment.

Positioned on Thurlow Road in a discreet cul-de-sac setting, the development enjoys an elevated aspect with sea views across the Bay from various vantage points. Sunny Rae Villa itself is a striking Victorian residence that has been rebuilt from the ground up - retaining its original architectural presence and elegant proportions, yet delivering the specification, efficiency and refinement expected of a 21st-century home.

Apartment 4 occupies the entry level floor and benefits from lift access to all floors, a secure video entry system and private video communications within the apartment - ideal for those seeking a secure lock-and-leave coastal base.

The Accommodation

A statement reception hallway sets the tone immediately - generous in scale with high ceilings, dramatic feature lighting and a substantial cloak storage cupboard.

There are two impressive double bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys a large bay window with sash detailing, high ceilings and picture rails, complemented by a striking en-suite shower room featuring Roca sanitary ware in bold black and high gloss white, LED mirrors, contemporary tiling, vanity shelving and a heated towel radiator. Bedroom two is equally well-proportioned with dual aspect sash windows and a defined space ideal for wardrobes or a dressing area.

The main bathroom is beautifully appointed - full sized and finished with rippled marble-effect tiling, statement sanitary ware, LED mirrors, a generous bath with concealed fittings and a quadrant enclosure with drencher-style shower. A heated towel radiator completes the space.

The centrepiece of the apartment is the superb lounge dining room - a room of genuine presence with tall, wide bay sash windows framing a stunning sea view across the Bay. High ceilings, picture rails and statement lighting enhance the sense of scale and natural light.

The kitchen is semi-open plan from the living space and enjoys its own picture window with breakfast bar positioned perfectly to take in the sea views. Designed and supplied locally by Howdens, the cabinetry is finished in a confident statement blue with bold brass fittings. Integrated appliances include a fridge freezer, washer dryer, full-size dishwasher, composite sink, five-ring gas burner with extractor and a gas combination boiler serving the apartment.

Externally, the development provides allocated parking for one vehicle, cycle storage and a dedicated recycling area. The main villa stands proud - lime washed and architecturally impressive - housing a small number of spacious apartments within an exclusive setting.
