5 Bedroom Detached House

Charming Period Detached House with Development Potential – Southbourne Grove. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a period detached property currently arranged as two spacious apartments, set in a quiet and desirable location just a few minutes' walk from the vibrant and cosmopolitan Southbourne Grove. The area offers a wealth of independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, making this an ideal purchase for anyone seeking the perfect blend of lifestyle and convenience. The property is held under one freehold title, allowing for the option to convert it back into a substantial family home, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Although some modernisation is required, the property features generously proportioned rooms arranged over three floors, along with off-street parking for three vehicles and a private 50ft rear garden – a true rarity in this sought-after area. The ground-floor apartment benefits from its own private entrance, leading to a hallway with access to all rooms. At the front of the property, there are two excellent-sized double bedrooms, both featuring large bay windows that provide plenty of natural light. To the rear, there is a spacious lounge with direct access to a conservatory, along with a fitted kitchen that overlooks the garden. A shower room and separate WC complete the ground-floor accommodation. The first and second-floor apartment also enjoys a private front door with stairs leading to a bright and airy landing. On this level, there is a generous reception room to the front, a large double bedroom, and a second double bedroom with its own ensuite shower room and WC. A well-appointed fitted kitchen and a family bathroom with WC serve this level. Stairs continue up to the second floor where a third double bedroom is located, along with access to an additional loft space offering further potential for extension, subject to planning. Externally, the property features off-street parking to the front for three vehicles and a private rear garden extending approximately 50 feet. Access to both front entrances and the garden is granted via an easement over the neighbouring driveway. This is a highly versatile property with excellent scope for redevelopment, multi-generational living, or investment purposes. Early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the potential and location on offer.
