Homefield is an excellent six bedroom detached Victorian property of red brick construction under a pantile roof. The property is believed to have been built around 1890 and offers well-proportioned family-sized accommodation with six / seven bedrooms. The existing owners have maintained the property well throughout their ownership and have retained many period features including stained glass windows, original flooring and the original balcony overlooking the sea.

Further to the above Homefield is currently run as a successful four star guesthouse with six rooms available to guests. The owners have converted one of the downstairs reception rooms into a bedroom with en-suite bathroom to suit the existing setup. This seventh bedroom could be turned back to reception by an incoming purchaser should they wish to do this.
