4 bedroom detached house for sale

Just a few minutes from the shoreline of Widemouth Bay, this generous coastal home offers space, character and a wonderfully laid-back lifestyle. If you’ve been searching for somewhere that feels private, peaceful and only a short wander to the beach, this property ticks every box.

Originally built in the 1920s and believed to be one of the earliest homes in the area, the house blends its original charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Throughout the property you’ll find details that give it real personality, oak flooring, handcrafted doors, and classic Cornish flagstones paired with clean, contemporary décor.

The entrance is via a timber porch, perfect for dropping off sandy shoes and beach gear. From here, a wide hallway leads you through the heart of the home. The layout offers fantastic versatility, with three main living areas:

• a sociable open-plan kitchen/dining/living space ideal for day-to-day family life,

• a cosy sitting room complete with a log burner,

• a bright additional reception room that opens directly onto the garden.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms feel airy and inviting, with three enjoying partial sea or coastal outlooks. One bedroom benefits from a private walk-on balcony—a peaceful spot where you can enjoy morning sun or watch the colours of the sunset in the evening.

With around 2,300 sq ft of accommodation, the property works beautifully as a permanent family home, a relaxing bolthole by the sea or a high-end holiday let. Lapsed planning permission had previously been granted for an enlarged open-plan kitchen, leaving the door open for future enhancement should the next owner wish to explore it.

The house sits within approximately ¼ acre of private, enclosed gardens. There’s an abundance of level lawn, tucked-away areas for outdoor dining, and both hot and cold external showers for easy post-beach living. A wide gravelled driveway offers excellent parking and features a useful timber outbuilding, with potential to add a garage or create a second access point from the lane (subject to consent).
