5 bedroom house

Built in 2018 to a high specification, Seaward is an impressive and imposing contemporary house which is attached to its neighbour at first floor level above a tall arch. It has only had one owner since it was built and has been used as a second home over that period. The house is set well back from Belle Vue Road and is positioned so that the rear faces due south with fantastic sea views across Castle Cove towards Portland over two miles away. The internal layout has been designed to maximise access to these sea views. There are two openplan reception rooms; one on the ground floor and one on the second floor and both have direct access out onto the verandah/balcony. The principal bedroom suite and a further double bedroom on the second floor also have their own private south-facing balconies with panoramic sea views. The accommodation is spread over three floors with a pale, neutral colour scheme throughout that optimises the available natural light imparting a wonderful feeling of light and space throughout the house.

On the ground floor is an open plan living room that encompasses the hall, seating, dining and fully fitted kitchen areas, with bi-fold doors extending along one side of the room with views out across the veranda, terrace and garden and which enable the house to be “opened up” in fine weather and for entertaining. On the first floor is an L-shaped sitting room with French windows out onto a south-facing balcony. At the front of the house on the first floor are two double bedrooms sharing a dual-access bathroom, which is ensuite to the larger of the two. A spiral staircase from a study area leads to the second floor which incorporates the principal bedroom suite with ensuite shower room and dressing room along with two further double bedrooms that share an en suite/dual access shower room between them.

Seaward is approached through a pair of wrought iron, electrically operated gates to a good-sized, resin bonded parking area with space for several cars and positioned directly in front of the integral double garage equipped with electric up-and-over doors. There is wide access on either side of the house to the rear garden with the arch on the eastern side providing covered storage for bicycles, water sports equipment etc. Most of the formal garden and grounds extend out directly behind the house. The formal garden is designed for ease of maintenance and consists of a covered deck and paved terrace leading onto a level lawn with high hedging on either side for privacy. A series of timber steps lead down to a further, rough area of grass that slopes gently down and is planted with several mature trees including magnolia, sycamore, ash, bay, laurel as well as exotic species such as cabbage palm and shaving brush tree. The path extends down to a close- boarded and lockable gate for access to the coast path. The property also owns the land beyond the path extending to the low cliff. In all about 0.65 acres (0.26 hectare).
