Occupying an enviable position in the very heart of the village, just moments from the harbour, this magnificent Grade II listed residence presents a truly rare opportunity to acquire a substantial four-bedroom period home of exceptional character, scale and distinction.

Beautifully presented throughout, the property effortlessly blends timeless character with refined modern living, creating an impressive family home within one of the area’s most desirable and atmospheric coastal settings.

The welcoming entrance hallway features a striking slate floor and an elegant oak staircase, setting the tone for the accommodation beyond.

The beautifully proportioned lounge enjoys high ceilings, abundant natural light, and attractive wood flooring, offering a warm and sophisticated living space ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.

To the rear of the property, the contemporary kitchen/diner combines stylish modern design with the enduring charm of the original building, creating a wonderful social heart to the home. A practical utility room provides excellent storage, while a downstairs cloakroom adds further convenience. A door from the kitchen leads directly into the courtyard.

An impressive turned staircase ascends to the first floor, where three elegant bedrooms are complemented by a sumptuous family bathroom, exquisitely finished with natural travertine tiling, a statement roll-top bath and a luxurious walk-in shower - creating a spa-like sanctuary where the stresses of the day simply melt away. The second floor hosts a further generous bedroom, offering flexibility for guest accommodation or a private principal suite.

Throughout the property, generous proportions, elegant living spaces, and original period detailing combine to create a residence of remarkable warmth and enduring appeal.

What makes this property particularly special is the rarity of its outside space for such a central harbour-side location, with its sunny garden with decking and courtyard areas. Beyond, a pathway leads to a striking split-level timber decked garden accessed via a metal staircase, where lovely rural views provide a peaceful backdrop rarely found within the centre of the village.
