The Mount is an impressive and spacious Victorian villa dating back to the 1850s, offering elegant accommodation arranged over several levels and enjoying breathtaking, uninterrupted sea views from the rear elevation.

The property is entered via a spacious reception hallway, setting the tone for the generous proportions found throughout. The grand sitting room and formal dining room both feature open fireplaces along with original decorative coving and architraves, highlighting the home’s period charm. A garden room provides an additional reception space, ideal for enjoying the outlook across the gardens and coastline.

Further ground floor accommodation includes a fitted kitchen/breakfast room and a useful downstairs cloakroom combined with utility space. Below, the property benefits from extensive cellarage, including a separate wine cellar, offering excellent storage and further potential.

To the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom featuring an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. A further family bathroom and a separate shower room serve the remaining bedrooms.

In addition, there is a self-contained two-bedroom flat comprising a lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms (one en-suite), a family bathroom, and a sun terrace enjoying stunning views towards Thatcher Rock and Orestone Rock. The flat can be incorporated into the main residence if required, offering excellent flexibility.

Externally, the property enjoys larger-than-average gardens which are predominantly level and laid to lawn, providing an excellent outdoor space rarely found with period homes of this scale. A timber-framed sun house is positioned to take full advantage of the outstanding sea views.

To the front of the property there is two single garages, along with off-road parking. The gardens and setting combine privacy with exceptional coastal outlooks, making the most of the property’s elevated position.
