7 bed semi-detached house for sale

Castle Hill, Seaton, Devon EX12

A substantial Victorian coastal home with spectacular panoramic sea views with character features and exceptional versatility just moments from the beach.

The Property:

Occupying one of Seaton's most enviable positions at the foot of Castle Hill and just a short stroll from the seafront, Beaumont House is a substantial Victorian residence believed to date from around 1860. This impressive semi-detached home enjoys outstanding panoramic views over the beach, Lyme Bay and the Jurassic Coast, taking in the dramatic cliffs of Axmouth and Beer, with Portland Bill visible in the distance on clear days.

Arranged over three floors and extending to over 3,600 sq ft, the property offers remarkably spacious and versatile accommodation with many original period features remaining, including high ceilings, deep skirting boards, picture rails, decorative architraves and feature fireplaces. Having previously been operated as a guest house, the layout lends itself equally well to a large family home, multi-generational living or those seeking income potential, subject to any necessary consents.

A welcoming entrance porch leads through to an impressive reception hall from which the principal ground floor accommodation is accessed. The elegant sitting room enjoys a large bay window framing the magnificent coastal outlook, whilst a separate dining room provides an excellent space for entertaining and is complemented by an adjoining ensuite shower room. The spacious kitchen is fitted with a range of matching units and opens through to an extensive range of ancillary rooms including utility areas, pantry storage, laundry facilities and a useful study area, ideal for home working. A basement provides valuable additional storage.

The first and second floors provide extensive bedroom accommodation, with seven well-proportioned double bedrooms, which all enjoy stunning sea or coastal views. Six bedrooms benefit from ensuite facilities, whilst a further family bathroom serves the remaining accommodation. A particularly impressive second floor sitting room enjoys a commanding elevated outlook across the beach and coastline, creating a wonderful retreat from which to enjoy the ever-changing coastal scenery

Beaumont House presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Victorian coastal home of considerable character and flexibility in one of East Devon's most sought-after seaside locations.

Outside:

Beaumont House continues to impress with unusually generous gardens for a property so close to the beach. A large paved terrace adjoining the house provides an attractive and private entertaining area, whilst the gardens rise through a series of landscaped levels including gravelled seating areas, decked terraces, lawns and mature planted borders. From numerous vantage points there are delightful sea and coastal views, together with excellent privacy provided by established hedging and natural stone walling. To the front and side of the property there is extensive parking, including space suitable for larger vehicles or a camper van.
