THE PROPERTY
Wittering Sands was the subject of full renovation during 2012, which included a new internal layout without the removal of structural walls, to form this fabulous three bedroom, three shower room detached family home with two living areas and a superb open plan kitchen. The garage was also converted into extra living space which benefits from a split AC unit as does the living area of the main house, with an internet cable also brought in with a separate TV aerial.
