Located in an enviable position, elevated over the village of Downderry, just a short walk to the beach, yet being nestled in countryside. This beautiful barn conversion hosts four double bedrooms, master ensuite, a grand living space, lawned gardens, a garage and plentiful parking. Views can be enjoyed in all directions.
The property is entered through the front door into an entrance vestibule where stairs rise to the first-floor accommodation, a door into the master bedroom, access to a storage cupboard, a family shower room and a hallway giving access to the rest of the bedrooms.
Bedroom one is dual aspect, hosts an ensuite shower room and has a beautiful, vaulted ceiling with exposed timber beams, slate windowsills and original lintels.
The fabric of the original barn has been retained throughout, whilst ensuring each space has been sprinkled with a gentle contemporary feel.
From the ground floor hallway there is access to three further double bedrooms all facing the front elevation, there is further storage, a utility room with access outside and a rear door opening out to the rear.
The first-floor landing has a window to the rear garden and side elevation, a door to a first floor WC, and door into the impressive kitchen. Again, with a vaulted ceiling and period touches.
The be-spoke kitchen sits well within the space and offers windows both the front and rear of the home. Base mounted units with sliding pan and cutlery drawers, a granite work surface complete with Belfast sink unit, an oil-fired Rayburn with extractor over and built-in appliances. This country kitchen expertly complements this charming home.
Double door open into a magnificent reception space, which is zoned into different living areas. A continuation of the exposed wooden floor from the kitchen, space for dining, double doors on to the side garden and further larger double doors cascade on onto the rear garden. The room is blessed with light from windows on all sides, bouncing off the exposed beams and the cathedral style ceiling.
This fantastic room is still very cosy complete with a multi-fuel burner sat on a Cornish slate heath, feature inglenook and subtle references to the past life of this stunning barn.
Externally the home offers parking for numerous vehicles to the front, as the attractive driveway sweeps up to a garage/workshop and then to the front door. The front and rear of the property has been expertly landscaped with a mix of stone chippings, manicured lawns, paving stones and mature plants and hedges. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the view, not least from the garden room, complete with its own terrace. Benefitting from double glazing, insulation and electricity this is a great home office or hobby room.
There is a further workshop/store, access to a wood store and a Cornish Hedge that denotes the majority of the boundary. Views can be enjoyed across fields, and the sea can be seen in the distance.
Downderry and Seaton are located within the Whitsand Bay, and are only a short drive away from Looe, Polperro and the City of Plymouth. Offering a lifestyle choice that includes 'beach living', both villages offer a sense of community and offer amenities such as two gastro pubs, tapas bar, a waterside restaurant, and primary school.
