Only
200 yards from the beach with
magnificent sea and coastal views, this charmingly decorated semi-detached double-glazed
Victorian house is set above the coast road, in the unspoilt village of
Downderry. Approached by a flight of walled and gated steps that lead directly up from the road, there is a
delightful paved and flower filled sun terrace overlooking the sea. The front door opens to a long hallway and to one side is a
light and airy sitting room dominated by a bay window with stunning
panoramic sea views. At the further end of the hall is a
games room/childrens bedroom with
3ft pine bunk beds, casual seating and a selection of games equipment. In an extension to the original house at the rear, there is an L shaped
fitted kitchen with a tiled floor and a wide open arch leading to a
bright breakfast room with pine dining table and French doors to a small service courtyard. Stairs lead up from the hall to a half landing and a
bathroom W.C. with hand basin and
shower over the bath. Half a dozen steps then continue up to the first floor and
two pleasant bedrooms; a
master bedroom with a
6ft bed and
wonderful sea views from a large bay window and the other bedroom at the rear has
two single beds and painted wooden floorboards. A second flight of carpeted stairs continue up to the top floor and a
spacious bedroom with a
double and
single bed,
stunning sea views from two large dormer windows and an
en-suite bathroom W.C. with hand basin,
bath and
shower cubicle. At the rear of the property, a gated flight of 30 railed steps lead up to the
elevated garden built into the hillside with a
terraced lawn and childrens playhouse, and 10 further steps up to a gravel
patio which enjoys a birds eye view over the rooftops to the sea. Young children will require supervision. There is
unrestricted parking on the road outside and
all the village amenities including a car park, shop/P.O., pub, café and restaurant are just a
five minute walk. The
beach is a couple of minutes walk downhill as is the
South West Coast Path.
Seaton, 1 mile west, has an excellent beach cafe and a lovely two mile nature walk through Seaton Valley Countryside Park.
