Property description & features

  • COASTAL COTTAGE
  • THREE DOUBLE BEDROOMS
  • BEAUTIFUL SEA AND RURAL VIEWS
  • KITCHEN DINER
  • FRONT AND REAR GARDENS
Occupying a prime sea facing position, this quaint and aptly named coastguard cottage sits just off the military road, down a private track enjoying fine views of the English Channel.

The cottage has been occupied as a wonderful holiday home for its owners for many years, with immediate access out on to the rustic coastal paths and the various beaches along this breath-taking coastline on the Southwest of the Island. This area of the Island is predominantly farmland creating a scenic back drop to the home.

With its accommodation laid out over three floors, many of the rooms have delightful views, with the sea to the South and St Catherines Downs, a picturesque outlook everywhere you look. The ground floor accommodation comprises of a large boot room and entrance porch which leads into a spacious kitchen diner with a wealth of cupboards and ample space for family dining. The sitting room enjoys lovely views through the conservatory, across the lawned garden and the English Channel beyond. A shower room concludes the ground floor accommodation, a useful addition due to the proximity to the beach.

The first floor has two double bedrooms, with an adjacent family bathroom and access to the second floor is from bedroom 1. On the second-floor bedroom 3 is a spacious double bedroom with Velux windows and eaves storage.

To the front of the property there is a lovely, enclosed courtyard with a brick-built store, a perfect place offering shelter for alfresco dining. At the rear of the cottage sits a large south facing patio which leads out on to the lawn overlooking the cliff path.

Due to the proximity to the cliff edge, the property is only suitable for cash buyers, however could serve as a superb holiday retreat or main home for buyers seeking peace and tranquillity away from more built up areas of the Island.
