Description
Originally constructed in the 1920s as one of Widemouth’s first homes and once a market garden, this delightful property has been thoughtfully updated by the current owners, blending modern comforts with its original character. The home retains its period charm with features such as oak floorboards, handmade doors, and stunning Cornish flagstone flooring, which harmoniously merge with stylish contemporary finishes.
You enter through timber doors into a welcoming porch, the perfect space to remove your shoes after a day at the beach. The spacious entrance hall offers the opportunity to enlarge the adjoining cloakroom into a shower room. The hall leads to the main corridor, which connects to three principal rooms: an open-plan kitchen, dining/ lounge area, perfect for socialising, a cosy sitting room with a log burner for colder evenings and a bright well proportioned reception room with a door leading to the garden. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three with partial sea or coastal views, and one featuring a walk-on balcony, a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the sunset.
