Detached four bedroom property sitting in 1.01 acres with wonderful sea views over Lyme Bay, a stones throw from West Bexington beach.

The Dwelling

This is beach life at its best! The property lies 100m from the beach with sea views both to the east and the west over Lyme Bay with a stylish poolside area behind. Add a property that, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents, could be substantially extended or remodelled to both the front and rear and you have the perfect seaside retreat.

Accommodation

On the ground floor, a hallway runs much of the length of the property with the living accommodation on the southside and the sleeping accommodation on the north side. The principal living space has a sitting area focused around a fireplace equipped with a woodburning stove to one end and a dining area to the other, with double doors overlooking the terrace and gardens behind. To one side a door leads into a garden room laid to ceramic tile. To the centre of the property there is a kitchen fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units and cupboards. Beyond the kitchen there are three bedrooms all with built-in wardrobes served by a family bathroom and the principal bedroom by an ensuite shower room. In addition, off the hallway there is a useful utility room and a door through to the integral garage.

On the first floor there is a fourth bedroom that has its own shower room and has the best of the views to the west out to Golden Cap and into Devon. The property has uPVC double glazing, oil fired central heating, photovoltaic cells and solar hot water heating.

Outside

To the front of the property a gated entrance leads through to a substantial area of driveway laid to tarmac that provides parking for quite a number of cars and access to the garage that is fitted with a roller blind door. The gardens to the rear have in recent years been completely transformed and landscaped to provide an outstanding series of limestone paved entertaining areas. There is a formal area of lawn to the centre providing a blank canvas for the keen gardener. To one side there is a useful timber garden shed and to the end of the garden a gate leads through to a secluded private pool area. It is also laid to limestone with a pool to its centre and to one side a pergola topped seating area besides which there is space for a hot tub. To the other side there is a timber pool house and a shaded sitting area, behind which there is an air source heat pump which heats the swimming pool. Beyond the pool area there is a very wild area of natural scrub that is a wildlife haven with the whole plot amounting to 1.01 acres.
