DESCRIPTION
We are delighted to offer for sale this substantial double fronted Georgian townhouse located moments away from the Tunnels Beach, harbour, restaurants and high street. The property is understood to date back to 1890 and once formed part of prominent Grosvenor Hotel. In 2015 the property was converted and renovated into this splendid period home by its current owners and now boasts spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over four storeys including a cellar. From the ENTRANCE HALL located on the ground floor stairs rise to the first floor and stairs descend to the basement level where there is a useful UTILITY ROOM. Returning to the ground floor there is a cosy SITTING ROOM with French style patio doors leading out onto the rear courtyard (described later) and a modern KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM. On the first floor there is one BEDROOM with EN-SUITE plus a further SINGLE BEDROOM. The first floor also offers a DRESSING ROOM/TOILET. The second floor accommodation is a mirror image of the rooms below including TWO FURTHER BEDROOMS and EN-SUITES. On the third floor there is a FINAL BEDROOM with EN-SUITE BATHROOM and SECONDARY RECEPTION ROOM, currently utilised as a cinema/TV room. Outside there is an enclosed REAR COURTYARD GARDEN ideal for entertaining or alfresco dining. Due its size and flexibly the property lends itself well as a either a large main family home, second home or Holiday let as according to the owner the property attracts a healthy amount of holiday bookings due to its proximity to The Tunnels Wedding Venue. This is certainly a property that needs to be viewed internally to be fully appreciated. The layout of accommodation with approximate dimensions is more clearly identified in the accompanying floorplan.

The property also comes with five allocated parking spaces located 100 yards from the property. These are currently on a long term lease from the council with 10 years remaining on the current 100 year lease.
