Property info

Neighborhood info

Thanks to the balmy influence of the Gulf Stream, Grange over Sands enjoys one of the mildest climates in the North. Once a small fishing village, it became a fashionable seaside resort after the railway arrived in the 1850's. Today Grange retains much elegance from its Edwardian heyday, with ornamental gardens, attractive shopping arcades and a promenade for relaxing walks.
