The property
Makore is a unique, architecturally designed property which sits prominently within its large plot with gardens extending on all sides. The property offers plenty of space both internally and externally and presents a fantastic opportunity for those in search of a detached family home in a seaside location - Positioned within an established and highly regarded residential area, the town centre, beach and harbour are all within walking distance. The interior offers plenty of flexibility with some of the rooms lending themselves to different uses depending on preference - not least the large home office, as it is currently used, which could also provide options as a downstairs double bedroom or perhaps even a self-contained annex due to its own private access directly from the gardens. There is perhaps now some scope for some cosmetic upgrading which is ideal for those looking to make some changes to their own specification giving the purchaser the opportunity to add their own stamp and make the property their own.
