Presented in immaculate order throughout, the property is currently run as a successful self-catering holiday cottage awarded Gold and 4 Star ratings from Visit England.

To the rear of the house a private patio overlooks a delightful, south facing cottage garden, purposefully left open plan for mutual appreciation. An area of garden directly behind the house and to the east elevation belongs to the property. The garden area to the side is gated to the front and provides a secluded seating area with potential to house a shed or be fenced off for a pet. There is a right of way around Old Hayes used by the gardener and window cleaner. The gardens are purposefully left open-plan, for mutual appreciation. There are reassuring covenants attached to Old Hayes, to protect the quiet enjoyment of this tranquil vista; these relate to noise, no ball games, no dogs allowed to run free or foul the garden, or anything that could cause nuisance and annoyance. All covenants are respected and appreciated.

Old Hayes is a terrace of five properties, standing in a Conservation Area, less than half a mile from the town centre and seafront. As such, the property is well placed for all town centre amenities and the busy High Street with numerous independent shops, High Street chains and popular restaurants.
