Built in the 1930's and having rendered elevations under a tiled roof which was renewed in February 2022, the property was renovated in 2018 and cleverly styled to mimic a "beach house" with the use of internal timber panelling.

The beautifully presented oil fired centrally heated and double glazed accommodation is arranged over two floors and in brief comprises; enclosed entrance porch, sitting room with fireplace, separate dining room, kitchen fitted with a modern range of high gloss grey coloured base and wall units with roll edges working surfaces, integrated oven and ceramic hob, recirculation fan, broom cupboard, tiled flooring, double glazed door to outside and covered way, staying on the ground floor there are two double bedrooms and a shower room. An open plan style staircase from the dining room leads to the first floor where there is a third double bedroom with en-suite bathroom.

Outside the property is approached off a private tarmac road where there is a lay by pull in with parking for two vehicles. A pedestrian gate with steps lead up to the front of the property where there is a timber decked terrace running along the length of the bungalow with balustrading from which there are superb sweeping views towards the sea and surrounding countryside. There is access around the side of the property to an outside utility/boiler room and timber steps up to a sloping lawn rear garden with inset shrubs and a timber decked terrace at the top from which there are wonderful views over the property towards surrounding woodland, farmland and the sea.
