1 Dunsley Crescent is a part rendered, brick-built semi-detached house dating from about the 1930s with a clay pantile roof and uPVC double glazing. The property stands as the first of 4 pairs of semis, set onto a curved, concrete private road with a traffic island in the centre.
This short crescent of houses lies on the very western edge of the town, near to the golf course and convenient for access to the town beach via the cliff paths. Requiring some updating and modernisation, to taste, this property even has views to the sea over the rooftops of the house behind.
From the path a half-glazed entrance door opens into a porch on the front of the building with uPVC double glazed windows on low brick walls.
A half-glazed door opens into a hallway with a staircase rising off to the side and doors opening into the lounge, dining room and bathroom as well as a shallow recessed storage cupboard.
The bathroom has a window to the side and is fitted with a pale coloured suite comprising a panel bath with shower over and shower curtain, a low flush WC and a pedestal wash basin.
The lounge runs the depth of the house and has a bay window to the front and a further window looking out on the rear garden.
The dining room has a window to the side and a store cupboard under the stairs housing the consumer boxes for the electrics. A glazed sliding door opens into the kitchen and there is a cupboard built into the recess.
The kitchen is fitted with a simple suite of cabinets dating from the 1980s with integrated appliances, or spaces for slot in appliances and a window and half glazed door facing into the rear yard and garden.
First Floor
The staircase rises to a half landing with a window to the side before rising to the first floor where there are doors to all the bedrooms and a hatch with a drop-down ladder to the loft.
Bedroom 1 is a large double room with a curved bay window to the front and a further window to the rear plus a wash basin set in a vanity unit.
Bedroom 2 is a smaller double room with a window to the front and a built-in wardrobe with mirror fronted doors.
Bedroom 3 is a single bedroom with a window to the rear and a also houses the recessed airing cupboard. There are some built in cupboards, a wardrobe and a dressing table with drawers and an inset wash hand basin.
The loft is accessed by a ladder and wraps around the brick chimney breast. There is a small Velux to the side overlooking the golf course and a large Velux window to the rear giving views to the sea. The loft has light and power. The floor is boarded and the slopes of the roof are lined with plaster-board.
Outside
The front garden is very limited, but there is a lawn with borders on the side of the building, bounded by a low brick wall.
A path runs around the side of the building to the rear where there is a concrete patio that then steps down to a dog-leg shaped garden that steps down, halfway down its length.
The upper section of the rear garden is lawned with planted borders and a central concrete path. The lower section of the garden is grassed with a garden shed, greenhouse and a summerhouse, a fruit tree and bushes, bounded by a high wooden fence.
