Features and description

  • Sold by Fine & Country
  • Fantastic location in the heart of ‘The Bay'
  • Spacious bedrooms with two en-suites
  • Sea views to the front from the first floor
  • Beautifully presented throughout with original features
  • Gated driveway parking and useful workshop / store
  • Landscaped front garden and rear courtyard
Occupying a superb position in Freshwater Bay to admire the breathtaking sea and headland views, this beautiful double-fronted Victorian home has been sympathetically refurbished to provide high-specification accommodation, enjoyed throughout the year by visitors and its owners alike. Accessed via either a pedestrian gate or a five-bar gate from the corner of The Square, there is ample parking for two vehicles. The original garage is now used as a useful store and workshop, with access to both the front and rear courtyard. The front elevation of the property is framed with attractive, ornately carved barge boards and two prominent bays, with double doors leading out from both of the primary reception rooms to the landscaped front garden.

On entering the home, you are greeted by a wonderfully light area, with the partially glazed main entrance door flooding the substantial entrance hallway with natural light. Solid oak flooring runs seamlessly throughout the ground floor. The main sitting room provides a lovely entertaining area, complete with an open fire and a substantial bay enjoying views of the garden. Continuing from here through the hallway, there is a large double understairs storage area, a shower room with a walk-in enclosure, and a utility room, which is extremely spacious. The utility room features a wall of base units with a built-in sink, plumbing for appliances, and houses the boiler and Mega Flow water tank. Due to the size of the room, this space could also accommodate a home office if required. The first-floor accommodation comprises four double bedrooms and a family bathroom, all leading off the galleried landing. Bedrooms one and two enjoy far-reaching views down Gate Lane to the sea and the rolling hills beyond. Both bedrooms also benefit from their own ensuite facilities, with the main bedroom ensuite offering a hint of luxury through a beautiful roll-top bath and high-quality sanitary ware.

In addition to the enclosed landscaped front garden, there is a courtyard at the rear of the workshop, accessed from either the workshop or the utility room. This space has been fitted with an outdoor shower, ideal for rinsing off or washing the dog after a bracing country or coastal walk.

What the Owner says:
We bought this home as a family getaway and have upgraded it considerably since purchasing. The property has provided a steady stream of income to us by visiting holiday guests who have been delighted with both its location, so close to all the amenities, and the finish of the refurbishment and the comfort the home offers to our guests.
