The property's historic Grade II listed former lime kiln provides a striking and distinctive feature and has been thoughtfully repurposed as a versatile studio space.

Adjacent is a generous double bedroom enjoying a front aspect window, while a well-appointed ground floor shower room is conveniently positioned to serve this part of the home.
Moving into the main house, a welcoming entrance area provides practical fitted storage for coats and footwear, complemented by attractive exposed stonework and a charming stable door opening onto the rear garden.
At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room, thoughtfully designed with a comprehensive range of units, solid wooden work surfaces and a selection of integrated appliances. The generous proportions easily accommodate a breakfast table, while the adjoining sun room offers a wonderful space to relax and enjoy a quiet spot to read.
Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is the impressive lounge/dining room, an inviting and sociable space perfectly suited to both everyday family life and entertaining. There is ample room for a formal dining table and comfortable seating arrangements, while French doors open directly onto the garden. A wood-burning stove creates a warm focal point, adding charm and character throughout the seasons.
The first-floor accommodation continues to impress with a bright and airy landing providing access to two further bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a superb double room featuring fitted wardrobes and triple-aspect windows that beautifully frame the surrounding countryside and sea glimpses. Benefiting from triple glazing across the front elevation, the room combines an abundance of natural light with excellent comfort and thermal efficiency.

Completing the first floor is a well-appointed family bathroom.
