DESCRIPTION
Commanding views are afforded over the Atlantic Ocean from beside the coastguard tower, across to Forrabury Church, towards Cambeak Headland and further towards Morwenstow GCHQ. The elevated position of this two bedroom detached bungalow with additional self-contained one bedroom apartment on the first floor, will be certain to generate interest.

The property briefly comprises entrance porch, kitchen, internal hallway, lounge, dining room, two double bedrooms, family bathroom and rear porch. The rear porch can be closed off which has its own entrance door to outside. Stairs lead to the first floor to an open plan living space with kitchenette, dining area and lounge. The double bedroom has an ensuite shower room and has been used for family and occasional holiday letting for additional income. Velux roof windows from the lounge and bedroom provide further aspects to appreciate the close proximity of the ocean. This is in addition to rolling countryside views heading back out towards neighbouring Lesnewth and Tresparrett.

The property occupies a large corner plot with established gardens which are predominantly to the front and rear. The front garden has been well landscaped with flower bed borders and well-tended lawn pockets. There is also a productive vegetable allotment and fruit cage, sheltered from the prevailing winds. The rear garden faces the sea and is kept as a wild flower meadow with cut walkways and slate monoliths. To the far side is a further cut lawn and seating area to enjoy the best of the views. There is ample parking and turning space on the private gated driveway.

Within a 4 minute walk is the coastal footpath, which the property faces and to the west just a 5 minute walk to the local shop and public house.
