Occupying an enviable position on the edge of a charming hamlet, this exceptional detached residence enjoys far-reaching, uninterrupted views across a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, extending to the dramatic coastline, the sea and as far as Lundy Island. Set within approximately 2 acres, the property offers an outstanding lifestyle opportunity, combining refined country living with excellent versatility and potential for income generation, and is offered with no onward chain.

The origins of the site date back to the 17th century, with the present home having been comprehensively rebuilt to an exacting standard. More recently, the property has undergone a further programme of thoughtful enhancement, resulting in a beautifully balanced home that seamlessly blends character with contemporary comfort. Energy efficiency has been improved with the installation of solar panels and electric heating throughout, complemented by newly fitted uPVC double glazing.

At the heart of the home lies a beautifully appointed kitchen/dining room, designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Fitted with a comprehensive range of integral appliances including a Neff electric oven and microwave, induction hob, twin fridges, twin freezers and a dishwasher, the space is both practical and elegant, with ample room for a large family dining table. From here, as well as from the principal reception spaces, the property takes full advantage of its spectacular setting, with expansive picture windows framing panoramic views across the surrounding landscape.

The accommodation has been thoughtfully reconfigured to enhance both flow and functionality. A welcoming entrance hall creates an impressive arrival point, complemented by a well-appointed cloakroom. A useful utility room has also been added on the ground floor. Former outbuildings have been sensitively incorporated into the main residence, creating a cohesive layout, with one former suite now forming an integral part of the principal accommodation.

The interiors are both elegant and inviting, with an emphasis on light, space and connection to the outdoors. The principal sitting room is particularly striking, featuring extensive glazing that captures the exceptional coastal and countryside views, while opening onto a veranda-style decked balcony—an ideal space for outdoor entertaining and relaxation.

Further reception space is provided by a characterful living room centred around an inglenook fireplace with a multi-fuel stove and original cloam oven, offering a warm and atmospheric setting. The principal bedroom suite provides a peaceful and generous retreat, complete with dressing area and a well-appointed en-suite bathroom.

"The Shippon" provides further bedroom accommodation. With its small kitchenette, and ensuite shower room, it offers flexibility for family living or guest use, with scope for multi-generational occupation or income potential, subject to individual requirements.

Approached via a gravel driveway, the property makes a striking first impression, with ample parking and a substantial triple garage or store together with a car port to the rear. The grounds extend to approximately 2 acres and comprise a delightful mix of formal gardens, expansive lawn and natural woodland. A gently meandering stream enhances the sense of tranquillity, while pathways invite exploration throughout the grounds and create a strong connection with the surrounding landscape.

Outdoor living is further enhanced by the elevated balcony area, which enjoys a sunny aspect and provides an excellent vantage point from which to appreciate the rural setting. From both the house and the grounds, there are far reaching views across the countryside and out towards the North Cornish coast, with the sea forming a memorable backdrop and Lundy Island visible in clear conditions. The gardens themselves are thoughtfully arranged, with areas of lawn, established planting and a more sheltered section ideal for a productive kitchen garden or self-sufficient living.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special home in a remarkable setting, offering privacy, beauty and considerable lifestyle appeal.
