An exclusive chance awaits to own a hidden treasure within walking distance of Alum Chine beach and the vibrant Westbourne Village. This charming two double-bedroom detached cottage, built circa. 1850 is associated to the original Zetland Court, the seaside villa of Lord and Lady Wimborne of Canford. This property presents an excellent opportunity and potential for renovation, ideal for creating a splendid second home or primary residence in a fantastic location. The front garden is large enough to park two cars, which in turn leads to a cute entrance courtyard set behind large wrought-iron gates, where horses possibly once stood as it's believed that The Coach House next door and The Cottage were formerly stables. The property enjoys an abundance of natural light, highlighted by a spacious double front reception lounge and living room featuring two full sized windows. The compact kitchen sits off the wood-panelled hallway and opens onto an external courtyard. On the first floor, you will find two generously sized double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes, serviced by a fully tiled family bathroom.
