Property description

A truly unique sea-side grand design - new owner to complete the project


An amazing opportunity awaits the buyer of this most individual sea-side project. Nestled within the grounds of the world famous Bleak House, the former holiday home of Charles Dickens, is The Gallery; a substantial individual house with outstanding sea views across Viking Bay from the vast roof-top terrace and proposed Orangery.
The property has been built to a shell stage with the majority of the structural works having been completed and now requires finishing by the buyer; thus giving the discerning new owner an opportunity to complete the property to their own bespoke requirements.
The current proposed layout makes provision for three bedrooms, with scope for a fourth, as well as four bathrooms together with upper and lower reception halls, a vast 38ft open-plan living space, kitchen, utility room, cinema/games room and a double garage. Located on the upper level would be a feature orangery opening onto the 1400sqft roof terrace with sea views across the bay. In addition there is ample off street parking for several cars, a courtyard garden and a 66ft wide southerly private walled garden.
