Two adjoining dwellings offered together – potential for home with income, multi-generational living, or to reinstate as a single house (stpp). An unusual opportunity to acquire both self-contained maisonettes which make up this property, being offered for sale together by agreement of the two separate owners.

West Bay House - £235,000

West Bay Penthouse - £125,000

Combined asking price - £360,000


The two properties are currently separately owned and comprise separate titles. The owners are jointly marketing them to provide purchasers with the opportunity to acquire both and, subject to the necessary planning, building regulations and other consents, potentially reinstate the property as a single dwelling. As 2 dwellings the property offers considerable potential for a home with income, or for multi-generational living. The two properties are not being sold as a single legal title and any purchaser wishing to acquire both will need to purchase both properties.
