Description

• Nestled in the heart of the charming coastal village of Strete, 36 Start Bay Park embodies the essence of seaside living. This detached house currently offers three double bedrooms, front and rear gardens, a double garage, off street parking and views of the sea and coastline.

• The already pleasant property holds exciting potential, with approved planning permission for a garage conversion and internal modifications that will elevate it to a contemporary four-bedroom home.

• Envisioned upgrades include the addition of a bedroom, four ensuites and an expanded balcony with panoramic views.

• At the heart of the developed home will be a large open plan kitchen/dining/living room, complete with a balcony with views of the coast.

• Situated within a leisurely 20 minute walk from the beach, the extended property would make either, a beautiful, modern coastal home, or a lucrative holiday let.

The living room
This bright and airy room with a partial sea view will combine with the kitchen to create a large contemporary kitchen/dining/living area.

The kitchen
Although the future vision for this kitchen is to combine with the living room to create a large open plan kitchen/dining/living space, the current kitchen is fully functional and well equipped.

Master bedroom
The first of the two ensuite double bedrooms on the first floor and benefiting from the added luxury of a built-in wardrobe, bedroom one, features patio doors that lead out to a charming, decked area that overlooks and connects with the rear garden. This east facing bedroom benefits from the morning sun and sea views.

Bedroom two
The second bedroom on the first floor is situated at the front of the house. The new plans will transform this generously sized double bedroom in to a suite with a contemporary ensuite shower room.

Planning permission
Approved planning permissions include the conversion of the garage that will create space for the addition of a bedroom, four ensuite shower rooms, an expanded balcony, with sea views and a contemporary open-plan kitchen/living/dining area.

The low-maintenance rear garden holds potential for further enhancement into an attractive and relaxing space for outdoor entertaining.

The open plan kitchen/living/dining area
The new plans combine the existing kitchen and living room, transforming the centre of the property into a large open-plan kitchen/dining/living area that radiates contemporary sophistication.

Accessed through bi fold doors, an extended balcony seamlessly blends this large and bright indoor space with the outdoors, whilst patio doors at the rear provide a natural flow out into the garden.

The new and revised layout would also include space for a study which could be utilised as a playroom or additional bedroom if required.

1. Any significant material issues highlighted in a survey that were not evident or drawn to the attention of you the buyer prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.

3. Local search revealing a matter that has a material adverse effect on the market value of the property that was previously undeclared and not in the public domain.
