Description

**Video Available** (Video Tour Tab)
Beautifully restored with a balance of modern comfort and period character, this charming three-storey Victorian cottage offers panoramic sea views across Chesil Beach and beyond — a rare opportunity to secure a turnkey coastal home in one of Portland’s most iconic locations.
Thoughtfully renovated throughout in recent years, the property now blends historic charm with high-specification finishes, offering peace of mind and timeless style just moments from the shoreline.

Ground Floor
The home opens with a welcoming entrance hall leading to a newly installed kitchen, fitted with modern cabinetry, quality appliances, and a clean, coastal aesthetic. A new boiler has been installed, ensuring long-term efficiency. The adjoining dining room has been newly plastered and fitted with new flooring, and enjoys a beautiful sea view — the perfect space for relaxed meals and entertaining.
To the rear, the brand-new bathroom features a stylish walk-in shower and a fresh, contemporary finish. The fuse board and electrics have also been upgraded downstairs, and the flat roof to the rear has been replaced.

First Floor
The first-floor living room has been fully reimagined. All new electrics have been fitted, and the walls stripped back to expose beautiful original Portland stone, creating a unique and atmospheric space that frames the sweeping views across Chesil Beach perfectly. Along with a double bedroom overlooking the rear of the property. Further to this a newly fitted WC and sink, adding further practicality.

Second Floor
Upstairs, the front two bedrooms enjoy panoramic sea views, while the snug to the rear provides additional accommodation or an ideal work-from-home space. All bedrooms have been newly plastered, decorated, and fitted with new carpets. In the main bedroom, plaster has been removed to reveal stunning original stone feature walls, preserving the heritage of this 1850s cottage.

Exterior & Garden
To the rear is a peaceful, Portland stone-walled courtyard garden — perfect for a quiet coffee or evening glass of wine. At the front, the cottage’s façade has been expertly restored, with traditional lime repointing and weatherproofing applied after the old render was carefully removed, further enhancing both durability and kerb appeal.
The rear of the house has been repointed, with roof and chimney repairs completed to ensure long-term protection and performance.

Location – The Cove, Portland
Positioned just 200 metres from Chesil Beach, this home places you at the heart of the Isle of Portland’s breathtaking coastline. Whether you're swimming, fishing, beachcombing, or simply soaking in the scenery, the lifestyle here is second to none.
Local favourites The Cove House Inn and Quiddles Café sit just down the road, while the National Sailing Academy and watersports centres are within easy reach, making this an ideal base for leisure, adventure, or relaxation.

The difference between ordinary and extraordinary? It's that little bit extra.

At TAUK, we believe it's the small details that make the biggest difference. A little more time understanding your home and what makes it special. A little more thought behind the marketing, so it reaches the right buyers. A little more care in negotiations, ensuring you don't just sell, but sell well.

It's the combination of all these extra little bits that delivers extraordinary outcomes.

At

TAUK, we believe that estate agency should be

better-for sellers, buyers, and the agents who make it all happen. We're not just another estate agency; we're a

network of personal estate agents who bring that

little bit extra to every transaction. From the first conversation to completion day, our agents are there every step of the way, ensuring that every detail is handled with care, expertise, and the level of attention that truly makes a difference. 

We take the time to understand every home, crafting a bespoke marketing strategy that highlights what makes it special-because selling a home isn't just about putting it online and waiting. It's about

positioning it in the right way, reaching the right buyers, and negotiating the best possible outcome. We know that moving is a significant life event, and we don't take that lightly. 

Our approach is about doing all the small things that add up to a

better, smoother, and more successful experience-from

high-quality photography and targeted social media marketing to proactive communication and skilled negotiation

And it's not just about sellers; we're here to support buyers too, helping them find homes that fit their lives and guiding them through the process with clarity and confidence. Behind the scenes, we've built

a modern, forward-thinking model that gives our agents the freedom and support to focus on what matters-delivering outstanding results for their clients
