Remodelled internally and externally by the current owners, the accommodation is arranged in an interesting configuration, ground, mezzanine, first floor, second floor, providing excellent family and entertaining space to maximise the stunning sea views.

In addition to the island there are generous working surfaces, with adjoining utility room. The remaining space containing a modern free standing wood burning stove, is flexible and can be configured to personal preference. Three large sliding doors allow extension of the living space onto a 38 ft tiled front aspect terrace with seating and dining areas overlooking the coastal view.
