The views from the property are stunning, giving a wonderful vista of the changing sea conditions over the cannon line at the top of Gun Hill. The property is served by a large driveway providing ample parking. The impressive hallway opens into the main drawing room which benefits from a double aspect with views out to the sea. Twin doors lead out to a conservatory which looks over the garden and seascape beyond, an amazing room to watch the seasons pass. The kitchen offers an Aga and space for a table and chairs although there is a formal dining room adjacent which also looks out to the coastline. The study is a useful addition to the ground floor for those looking for a home office, and there is a cloakroom set off the hall. The first floor offers the family bathroom, along with four well-matched bedrooms. The master bedroom offers a sizeable en-suite bathroom and all four bedrooms have a sea view with bedroom three offering a balcony accessed via twin doors offering a crow’s nest view across Sole Bay. Outside, the garden wraps around the property and is mainly laid to lawn with a selection of mature shrubs and fruit trees. An exciting chance to live in an outstanding position within the town. The property will come with a gardener and window cleaner with the vendor offering flexibility for tenants to conduct a degree of redecoration. Please call for further details.
