Set within large, southerly facing gardens with a sun terrace and driveway parking, this substantial home combines coastal charm, space, and outstanding potential.

The accommodation is generous and well arranged, with bright rooms designed to make the most of the natural light and stunning coastal views. The ground floor features a grand reception hallway creating an elegant sense of arrival, leading to a spacious sitting room, enjoying sea views and an abundant natural light. There is also a formal dining room, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining, together with a well-proportioned kitchen/ breakfast room, a separate utility room, and a downstairs cloakroom/WC.

On the first floor of the main house are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite facilities, and a family bathroom. Several bedrooms enjoy superb sea views from the rear elevation.

Annexe Potential

The flexible layout offers excellent potential to create a two-bedroom self-contained annexe, ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or a holiday let (subject to any necessary consents). This area is accessed from the main house and currently comprises a spacious lounge/dining room with kitchen off, and a space-saver staircase leading to the first floor where there are two double bedrooms and a bathroom/WC.
