Description
Approached from the lane into the large parking area with double garage you enter the house through a solid oak door into a spacious and light entrance hall, which is full of character. Solid oak doors, hard wood and aluminium double-glazed windows, oak windowsills and a mix of oak and ceramic tiled floors are a theme throughout, along with lovely detailed curved walls and the cantilevered steel staircase is a real feature of the property. From the entrance hall you enter the large sitting room with wood burning stove sitting on a granite hearth with granite mantle. French doors lead out onto the terrace and gardens, and light also floods in from the large windows. Through to the spacious and light kitchen, which also enjoys doors onto the terrace and gardens, is large enough to accommodate a dining table and has a range of fitted units and work surfaces. A wonderful feature in the kitchen is the spacious pantry, with slate shelving and beyond this a large utility and boot room with back door and door down to the plant and large storage rooms, which could make a great gym or cinema room. Also on the ground floor is a cosy dining room for those family suppers, a cloakroom and a spacious and light study. Ascending the cantilevered staircase, you will find a light galleried landing with a large seating area, with floor to ceiling windows, allowing you to enjoy the spectacular views over the gardens, village and sea beyond. This is a special place to enjoy your favourite book or morning coffee. A master bedroom with ensuite shower room, guest bedroom with ensuite and walk in dressing room, two further double bedrooms and family bathroom complete the first floor. There is also a useful airing cupboard off the landing and various cupboards and fitted wardrobes add useful storage.

Gardens And Grounds
Entering the magical, private and peaceful gardens you can wander around up and down well positioned steps to a number of spacious and secluded terraces. Grassed pathways lead to different parts of the garden including lawned areas with borders full of colourful plants including camellias, hydrangeas, dahlias and established shrubs. There is a useful storage shed with potting shed below and greenhouse, beyond this and along the grassed path you'll find a vegetable garden and orchard full of plum, cherry, pear and apple trees. There is even a tree house in the corner which is ideal for children to while away the days. Round the front of the property you will find the double garage with water, electricity, car charging point and turning area for several cars. To the left of the garage is a log store and further hard standing area. The battery for the 16 solar panels is in the basement plant room.
