Introduction:
Cottage by name but not by nature, this bright, spacious home is on a pretty historic lane with a mix of fisherman cottages, artisan and middle- class dwellings. With plenty of kerb appeal and a side gate to the private patio for parties (and bike storage), inside the stylish living room is sleek and contemporary, ideal for a sophisticated lifestyle by the sea and the streamlined kitchen is fully fitted with a designer finish.
A sculptural, spiral staircase rises to the first floor, which in effect forms a glamorous principal suite with access to the west facing roof terrace, which has space for a table and chairs where the slightly unconventional, but not unusual approach in these historic properties is through double doors from the bathroom. At the front, the spacious principal room of 4.0m x 3.1m (13’1 x 10’2) has style as well as oblique sea views. Up at the top, the guest room is a perfect, private eyrie, looking east for the morning sun.
