Description
Situated just East of Pockwood Pond with glorious views across the Channel, Gwydion Manor presents an excellent development opportunity. The almost 3 acre freehold parcel has paved access and could be further developed to include several town houses or condominiums.
The existing house was built in the 1980s and does require some modernisation, but this could easily be carried out while in occupation. The focal point of the main house is a hexagonal great room with a cathedral ceiling and hardwood floor. Post Irma/2017, electric hurricane shutters were installed to secure this room from the elements. There is a fully equipped, raised galley kitchen over looking this charming living room. The great room opens onto an uncovered terrace with ample space for outside dining and barbecuing.
Both bedrooms are to the west and accessed via a short corridor. Master bedroom has fitted wardrobes, ensuite bathroom with outside shower and sliding doors to a narrow balcony. Both the room and the balcony could easily be extended. Guest bedroom, with an adjacent guest bathroom, is modest in size, currently set with twin beds and access to the terrace.
Stone steps lead down to a self contained unit below the main house. This flex space currently includes a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, office nook and living space. With a little work it could be transformed into a cosy guest suite, gym or media room. Plenty of possibilities. If a buyer wanted to add a pool, this could serve as a pool house, with a full kitchen and bar for entertaining.
Access to the house is via a paved road. Ample parking and turning space in driveway. There is an additional courtyard outside the front entrance which could be enhanced with some seating. The perimeter of the house has been landscaped and is well maintained.
This property has a lot of potential, particularly for an ambitious contractor, looking for a project.
