The remaining flexible space enjoys two large dormer windows and glazed gable, flooding the room with light and all providing the perfect armchair positions to marvel at the variety of coastal views. There is useful eaves storage as well as a w/c to this level.

The ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming entrance hall with decorated wooden flooring, continuing through to give access to all rooms on this level. Including five of the property’s six bedrooms, three of which with seaward facing views with the dual aspect principal benefitting from an en suite shower room. There is also a contemporary family bathroom with bath and separate shower.
