Situated in an enviable position with picturesque views to the coastline, Waterfront is a fine example of a detached Edwardian seafront property with a rich history dating back to World War I. The home offers three floors and over 4,000 sq. ft. of characterful, light-filled and versatile accommodation with a wealth of retained original features, including a wrap-around balcony, tall, corniced ceilings and picture rails, a multitude of unique feature fireplaces, ceiling roses and wide walk-in bay windows.

The charming porch opens to a grand reception hall with herringbone hardwood flooring and a turned stairway to the first floor. From here is the tranquil drawing room, with garden views and double doors opening to the 21 ft. multi-aspect study. A central hallway flows to a boot room, cloakroom and several useful store rooms, and a utility along with an additional stairway and an added on laundry/utility room. Two bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the ground floor facilities.

The first floor makes excellent use of the elevated sweeping sea views from the timber-built balcony beside the bright sitting room. Further is the in-keeping kitchen and breakfast room with a range of wooden wall and base cabinetry and various appliances, along with a formal dining room and a 19 ft. bedroom or potential study.

The second floor houses the considerable principal suite with its trio of fireplaces, 29 ft. of bedroom space, a fully fitted dressing room and a generous en suite bathroom.

Outside

A large brick-laid and gravelled driveway and forecourt beside the property offer ample parking for several vehicles, along with the detached triple garage block.

The fully enclosed private garden is bordered by handsome red brick walls and mature evergreen hedging, with a sizeable level lawn, a tranquil pond and seating area, a greenhouse, garden shed, a wide range of well-stocked herbaceous beds and several established trees.

The first-floor balcony provides a wonderfully sociable space to entertain and take in the striking coastal aspect.
