Guests can relax in privacy, enjoying the charm of two exposed brick fireplaces and serene leafy views, creating a perfect blend of comfort and character.
THE KTICHEN DINER & UTILITY ROOM AND GARDEN
This extended, family-friendly kitchen-diner features a south-facing glass wall that opens to the garden, vaulted skylights, and a social, sunlit design. Centered around a spacious dining area, it combines shaker units with solid wood surfaces for timeless style. Thoughtfully planned with a pantry, tucked-away appliances, limed oak flooring, and underfloor heating, it’s ideal for all seasons.
The south-facing garden is a secure, scented retreat with historic flint walls, a large, level lawn, mature cherry and fig trees, and a sun deck. A 4m x 2m shed, with street access and electric, is perfect for bikes, canoes, or storage.
THE GUEST ROOM, LUXURY BATHROOM AND STUDY
The first of the generous double bedrooms is bright and cheerful of dual aspect with garden views. Ideal for guests it is opposite the surprisingly big bathroom which has a soothing finish and room for both a tub and separate walk in shower.
Central to the first floor but nicely secluded, the quiet home office has space to share and fitted shelving.
THE PRINCIPAL BEDROOM, EN-SUITE AND TOP FLOOR BEDROOMS
A calm retreat with glorious sea views, the principal bedroom is all about relaxing in a special setting. with 17’4 x 14’2 (5.29m x 4.31m) in which to unwind the garden ensures privacy and a gentle wake up to bird song. With the romantic proportions only a period home can deliver, it has two tall windows to flood the room with light and discreet built in closets lead through to a chic en-suite shower room.
Two more double bedrooms on the top storey are peaceful and light, with plenty of character of their own. At the front, the bedroom of 14’2 x 11’6 (4.31m x 3.50m) looks over to open water, whilst at the back, the smallest room – which still has 11’5 x 7’0 (3.47m x 2.13m) to play with, has garden views and fitted wardrobes. It is worth noting that there is a false wall to the west, and the current owners considered extending into that space to create one fabulous, sea-facing en-suite room on this level.
THE ONE BEDROOM ANNEXE
Light and spacious, the one bedroom annexe is simple but stylish and offers versatile options, perfect for visiting family, relatives who need a little tlc, an au-pair, lucky teenager or older children saving to get a foot on the ladder.
Vendors comment:
“We’ve loved this happy home for its celebrations, relaxed design, and community. Neighbors became friends (the kids even pop next door via a ladder!), and parks, schools, and shops are close by. The house is airy in summer, cozy in winter, with versatile spaces and a Californian feel near the sea.”
