Description
Are you looking for a beautifully renovated three-bedroom cottage, boasting spectacular sea views close to Downings? Ideally located along the Wild Atlantic Way, the property is in close proximity to the renowned Rosapenna Golf Complex, the popular Singing Pub, and the stunning Murder Hole beach. This home is ideal for buyers seeking an easy coastal lifestyle with space to relax, entertain, and enjoy daily sea views, whether downsizing without compromise or settling into a long term family base by the coast. It suits those who value comfort, light, and convenience in equal measure. Early viewing is strongly advised to fully appreciate the outlook and lifestyle on offer. Set back behind solid wooden fencing and gated access, this recently renovated home immediately gives a sense of privacy and calm while still feeling open and welcoming. Originally built around 1980, the property has been carefully updated to a very high standard and is now ready for immediate occupation, offering a fresh, clean feel throughout. As a detached bungalow, it provides the ease of single level living while still delivering generous internal space that feels both practical and well balanced. The heart of the home is the large open plan reception area which brings together the kitchen, dining, and living space into one flowing room designed for modern living. This space is filled with natural light, helped by its wide layout and the strong connection to the outside. The kitchen sits comfortably within the room, offering plenty of worktop space and storage, making it ideal for everyday use as well as for hosting friends and family. The dining area is well placed for both casual meals and more formal occasions, while the living space offers a relaxed setting to unwind, with enough room for comfortable seating without feeling crowded. A sliding door opens directly onto the decking, creating a natural extension of the living space and drawing the eye straight out to the sea view. This feature allows the view to be enjoyed throughout the day and into the evening, whether the door is open in warmer months or closed on cooler days. The decking area itself is ideal for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or simply sitting back to take in the coastal outlook. Moving through the home, there are three well proportioned bedrooms, each offering flexibility for different needs. Whether used as main sleeping rooms, guest accommodation, or a home office, they are all bright, calm spaces that continue the fresh and tidy feel found throughout the property. The bathroom is notably large and finished to a modern standard, offering a clean and practical layout suited to daily family use or visiting guests. Outside, the enclosed garden space provides a secure and low maintenance area, framed by wooden fencing that adds both privacy and a natural feel. Parking is available outside the property, making day to day access easy for residents and visitors alike. The overall impression is of a detached bungalow that has been thoughtfully improved to support relaxed coastal living, with the stunning sea views acting as a constant backdrop to everyday life. The property is understood to be freehold, adding reassurance for buyers seeking long term security. The location further strengthens the appeal, particularly for those who want to enjoy the best of coastal living without feeling remote. A range of local amenities are close by, making everyday tasks simple and convenient. Schools & shops in the area are easily accessible, which will appeal to families looking to settle into a well connected community. The nearby beaches are a major draw, offering opportunities for walking, swimming, and enjoying the outdoors throughout the year.

The Singing Pub is also close by, adding a social and community focus that many buyers value, whether for relaxed evening meals or meeting friends.
