Whether enjoying a morning coffee whilst taking in the ever-changing views across the bay, entertaining family and friends in the garden, or returning home after a walk on Exmoor's dramatic coastline and moorland, the property offers a wonderful connection to the landscape that surrounds it. The combination of sea views, countryside outlooks and a peaceful setting creates a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find.

The accommodation is both spacious and versatile, thoughtfully arranged over split levels to maximise the property's unique position.

A separate utility room offers additional practicality, while the formal dining room is rich in character, featuring an oak-beamed vaulted ceiling and French doors opening onto the garden, creating the perfect setting for entertaining and family gatherings.

The impressive triple-aspect living room is undoubtedly one of the home's standout features. Flooded with natural light, it enjoys a feature front window perfectly positioned to capture the outstanding views across Porlock Bay, creating a spectacular focal point throughout the year.
