House For Sale £600,000
A rare opportunity to acquire a spacious 1930’s semi-detached house located just a 250-metre level walk from Preston seafront in Paignton. The main house features 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with 2 large reception rooms, study and a 4m x 3m conservatory directly off the lounge. There is a well-appointed galley kitchen with separate utility as well as having a lovely good size hallway and landing area. With spiralling energy costs, it is worth noting that there are 10 solar panels, helping to reduce your monthly electric bills and a chance to receive payments for any surplus energy.
Cayton House has been utilised as a B&B in recent years and could easily continue down this path if so desired but presently it is used as a most comfortable and spacious home.
Worthy of a particular mention is the attached Annexe, which is presently utilised as a one bedroom home for a dependant relative. However, this versatile space could be adapted for Office /Studio/Independent siblings etc. Its close location to the sea front would lend itself perfectly as a holiday let with the creation of a separate access. It has a private garden and a frontal area which would be perfect for storage of sup’s, bodyboards, beach goods etc.
Furthermore, four vehicle, level parking this close to the beach and Preston Green is a rarity so Cayton House certainly warrants an internal inspection to appreciate both the size of accommodation on offer and the flexibility of usage for different needs.
