Description

White Cottage's modest street appearance belies the wonderful views and spacious accommodation within. Entering the property into an L-shaped hallway, straight ahead a glimpse of the incredible sea views can be seen through the sitting room patio doors.

To the immediate left of the entrance is the first of two bedrooms, with fitted wardrobe, and window overlooking the quiet residential street. Adjacent to this is the second, larger bedroom with dual aspect windows overlooking both patio and garden towards the sea. Fitted wardrobes provide ample storage. Both bedrooms are light and airy.

From the hall, the generously sized sitting room is located to the rear of the property and is dominated by three large floor to ceiling windows, one of which is a sliding patio door, overlooking the garden and providing breathtaking views of the beach and sea. The southeast facing room is well lit by natural light, and to the rear of the L-shaped room is a more snug seating area centred around an open fireplace.

Accessed from both hall and sitting room is the kitchen, with modern base and wall units providing plenty of storage and work surfaces. Appliances include integrated double oven, induction hob, freestanding dishwasher, and an adjacent utility room provides further space for fridge/ freezer and washing machine. To complete the accommodation, a shower room is located off the hallway to the right of the entrance and features a large D-shaped walk-in shower with seat, WC, basin and heated towel rack.

From both utility room and sitting room, a patio borders the property and provides a private sun trap for a spot of al fresco dining. The garden, laid to lawn, then leads down a gentle slope to a low stone wall providing panoramic views over the beach below. There is a further patio area at the bottom of the garden, ideal for a comfortable chair or two to sit and enjoy the view. Next to the patio, a hatch opens up to stone steps leading down to a cellar store.
