About this property
Positioned down a private driveway off the highly sought-after Limers Lane in Northam, this beautifully presented four-bedroom detached residence enjoys a separate self-catering annexe, a double garage, and mature gardens and grounds extending to approximately 0.37 acres, with stunning views.
Occupying a unique elevated position, the property offers arguably some of the finest estuary views available along Limers Lane. The light-filled and airy accommodation is complemented by picture windows that frame far-reaching views. The home has been tastefully refurbished, thoughtfully extended, and significantly enhanced by the current owners, resulting in an elegant and contemporary home that is ready for its fortunate new owners.
The annexe is completely self-contained and currently generates a healthy monthly income of £705. It also benefits from approved planning permission for a first-floor extension, offering the potential to convert it into a two-bedroom property if desired.
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a generous entrance hall, providing access to the ground-floor bedrooms. This level includes a bedroom with an octagonal en-suite, a shower room with WC and washbasin, with two further bedrooms. Towards the rear of the property, there is a utility room, a family bathroom, a study, and internal access to the integral garage.
Upstairs, the home truly comes into its own. The modern open-plan living space takes full advantage of the exceptional estuary views, with each room benefiting from natural light and scenic outlooks. The lounge flows seamlessly into the dining area, with large picture windows capturing the stunning surroundings. French doors lead out from the lounge onto a private balcony — the perfect, secluded spot to sit and enjoy the magnificent vistas.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of built-in storage cupboards, generous preparation surfaces, and stylish granite worktops. It also offers casual dining space and connects smoothly with both the dining area and the orangery, making it an ideal hub for entertaining.
The orangery is a standout feature — ideal for hosting friends, family gatherings, or relaxing in style. With floor-to-ceiling glass bifold doors, it can be enclosed during inclement weather or opened up during the warmer months to create a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow. This space opens onto an additional decked balcony, perfect for alfresco dining while enjoying the serene setting.
Last but by no means least is the principal suite — the crowning feature of the home, occupying the entire second floor and offering the best ‘seat’ in the house. From here, breathtaking panoramic views of the estuary and beyond can be enjoyed, with a true 180-degree vista visible from the private balcony.
The master bedroom features a range of built-in storage cupboards and a fully equipped, beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom, completing this luxurious and tranquil retreat.
