Selborne Drive, Douglas
Asking price: £550,000

An exciting opportunity has arisen to acquire this freehold, semi-detached property bursting with character and potential. Originally a spacious single dwelling, the home was converted into two self-contained flats in the 1970s and now presents a rare chance for transformation. Offered with vacant possession, it’s the perfect blank canvas for investors or homeowners ready to unlock its full promise.

The ground floor flat offers a spacious and well-balanced one bedroom layout, including a generous lounge that provides ample room for relaxed living. The kitchen is a good size with potential for modernisation, while the large bedroom and well-proportioned bathroom complete the accommodation. This flat also enjoys direct access to a small rear yard, providing a touch of outdoor space to enjoy.

The upper flat spans two floors and offers flexible living with space for two or even three bedrooms. Upon entering, you're welcomed by an expansive communal hallway – once the home’s original reception room – currently underutilised but brimming with potential for redesign. A small store room sits on the half landing. The first floor houses a compact bedroom, a comfortable lounge, a modest bathroom, and a generously sized kitchen. Upstairs on the second floor are two further bedrooms, both light filled and spacious.

Gas services are connected to both flats, and fire alarm and detection systems are already in place. The entire property is fitted with double-glazed windows, ensuring comfort and energy efficiency throughout.

Externally, the home features a paved front garden framed by surrounding greenery, a rear yard, and a sizeable garage – perfect for storage, workshop use, or future development. Importantly, the layout still lends itself to being converted back into a substantial single family residence by reinstating the original internal connection between the two flats.
