Description

CLOSING DATE SET FOR OFFER OF 12:00 FRIDAY 13TH MARCH 2026

Bayview is a charming two-bedroom detached bungalow set in an enviable seafront position in the peaceful village of Herston. Enjoying panoramic views over the bay, this characterful property offers a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a tranquil coastal home with scope to modernise and personalise.

Inside, the accommodation includes a bright living room with a window framing the beautiful waterfront outlook, along with two well-proportioned bedrooms, one of which benefits from a builtin wardrobe. The kitchen provides generous storage and workspace, with access through to the rear porch and garden areas.
The bathroom is fitted with a bath, WC, wash basin, bidet, and a separate shower cubicle, offering practical flexibility.
To the rear, a spacious porch/conservatory runs along the back of the house an ideal spot to enjoy the garden views or use as a hobby or relaxation space. From here, you can access the large utility room, which includes fitted worktops, sink, storage, and a WC cubicle, as well as direct entry to the attached greenhouse/potting shed.
A standout feature of the home is the generous attic room, fitted with Velux windows that capture stunning elevated views over the bay. This versatile space would lend itself well as a studio, office, or additional hobby room, subject to appropriate local authority consents.
Externally, Bayview sits within a substantial garden plot featuring mature trees, shrubs, and several garden sheds, offering excellent storage or workshop options. The front of the property opens out to the spectacular shoreside view.
