About this home

The Property An impressive and highly versatile architect-designed home, now incorporating a self-contained one-bedroom annex, offering exceptional space and flexibility for larger families, multi-generational living, dual occupation or those seeking income potential. This substantial residence combines quality craftsmanship with thoughtful design, featuring hardwood finishes and double glazing throughout.

Enjoying an elevated position with stunning estuary views, the home offers a wonderful balance of privacy, tranquillity and convenience. A welcoming entrance sets the tone, leading through to expansive living spaces that are perfect for both entertaining and everyday life. High ceilings and large windows flood the interiors with natural light, enhancing the sense of space and quality throughout.

The property has been thoughtfully adapted to create a one-bedroom annex, providing excellent independent accommodation and making this an ideal opportunity for those looking to accommodate extended family, guests or generate an additional income stream. The annex includes a kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedroom, with an additional door in the downstairs hallway providing separation from the main house.

The kitchen is a real focal point, well appointed with quality appliances, custom cabinetry and a striking curved worktop, ideal for casual dining and social gatherings. A formal dining area sits alongside, while a sunroom offers a more relaxed space to unwind and enjoy the outlook.

The main bedroom benefits from its own ensuite and dressing area, with further well-proportioned bedrooms offering flexible accommodation for family, guests or home working.

The lower ground floor provides excellent versatility and is currently used as a pottery studio, but would suit a variety of uses including hobbies, workspace or additional accommodation, subject to requirements.

The property is particularly well suited to multi-generational living or investment use, with the newly created annex providing genuine flexibility for dual occupation. Eco-conscious features include solar PV panels generating an annual income and a solar thermal system for hot water.

Externally, the home benefits from a large garage with electric door and ample parking. Set in a peaceful setting yet close to local amenities, this is a rare opportunity to secure a distinctive and adaptable home with a newly created one-bedroom annex, exceptional flexibility and breathtaking estuary views.
