** PRIME SEAFRONT POSITION ** VIEWING IS ESSENTIAL ** An imposing, double fronted detached residence which offers character, style and space in abundance. It is steeped in history dating back to 1874 approximately and has connections to the Backhouse and Barclays banking families. This extremely spacious home is spread over four floors, with most of the windows enjoying a sea view. The accommodation lends itself to a number of uses, it can be used as a large family home, plus has commercial possibilities (subject to the usual consents).

The rear hallway gives access to the basement, modern cloakroom/WC, pantry and boiler room.

From the galleried landing are four double bedrooms, with the landing having an inspiring study area for enjoying the sea whilst you work. The master bedroom leads to a luxuriously appointed en suite bathroom which has a large 'whirlpool' style bath. A second staircase leads to the second floor which would make an ideal teenager suite as it has three reception rooms and a shower room/WC. Outside the property has a decked area to the front which is ideal for watching the boats sail by.
