Set just 500 metres back from the sea, this striking double-fronted Victorian house offers sea views, exceptional natural light and layers of period character. Rich panelling throughout, ornate coving and dramatic ceiling roses, original fireplaces with working log burners and softly coloured stained-glass windows that cast beautiful light across the rooms. Marble tiling and oak flooring run through the house. Throughout the house, carefully curated antique furniture sits alongside bespoke, one-of-a-kind pieces, adding depth, texture and a lived-in elegance that feels authentic.
At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan kitchen and living space. Double-height ceilings, 19th-century chandeliers and vast windows flood the room with light, while a soft-pink four-oven AGA takes centre stage alongside a Neff oven, two dishwashers and multiple butler sinks. Two large islands complemented by a uniquely carved dining table and bespoke cabinetry throughout. A relaxed seating area features two generous sofas, with a huge log burner and the AGA.
The ground floor also includes two individually styled reception rooms furnished with a mix of antiques and custom-made pieces, along with a utility room, boot room, powder room and bar area. Upstairs, the first floor hosts an impressive master suite with adjoining his-and-hers dressing rooms and a statement bathroom finished in dramatic Portugal Rosa marble, complete with an antique cast-iron fireplace dating from 1900. This level also includes a further bedroom suite with dressing room and marble bathroom, a dark and moody office, and an inviting guest room. The third floor features two double bedrooms, each with their own dressing room and bathroom, alongside a large open-plan teenage playroom with curved sofa seating and a playful pink kitchen.
