At the heart of the home is a spacious open-plan kitchen/living area, featuring a classic fireplace and a large picture window that perfectly frames the magnificent view. Off this space lies a sunroom, ideal for enjoying the ever-changing light and sea views in all seasons. The living area leads into a bedroom corridor, comprising two bedrooms, one of which benefits from an ensuite shower room along with a separate shower room. The house was formerly a 3 bedroom home and the ensuite can be easily converted back to a bedroom. The house was formally a 3 bed home and could be changed back with little effort.
