Description
Highly desirable superior detached coastal residence with adjoining 3 acres in total. This 5 bedroom property enjoys an elevated location and stunning sea views from the house and gardens while also being within walking distance of the coastal footpath.
Presented to an excellent standard, the property comprises an entrance hall, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, cloakroom, store room, sitting/dining room, sunroom, study and an ensuite guest room.
On the first floor are 4 further bedrooms including an ensuite and separate bathroom and shower room. Outside is ample gated driveway parking, sun terrace with sea views and lawns.

The paddock is fully enclosed and at the bottom also backs onto a woodland walk area down to the stream creating a wonderfully tranquil walking or resting area with footbridge into the orchard. High interest is expected.
