Nestled within the tranquil conservation village of Holmpton, this delightful semi-detached former Coastguard Cottage offers the perfect blend of period charm and modern comfort. Beautifully presented throughout, the property exudes warmth and character, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking a relaxed coastal lifestyle.
Previously granted outline planning permission for a two-storey side extension, there is exciting potential to further enhance the living space with an open-plan kitchen living area and two additional bedrooms to the first floor – allowing the home to grow with your needs.
The accommodation currently includes two bedrooms and a versatile second-floor loft room, together with a beautifully styled bathroom featuring a luxurious double vanity with his and hers basins. The cosy lounge, centred around a log-burning stove, creates the perfect setting for quiet evenings in, while the generous garden provides a sun-drenched space for summer entertaining.
Set on a generous plot with an enclosed laid-to-lawn garden and the added benefit of off-street parking, this charming home offers both comfort and practicality in equal measure. Whether hosting garden gatherings or unwinding by the fire, this coastal gem captures the essence of countryside and seaside living combined.
A gravelled driveway to the front provides off-street parking, with a gate opening into a generous, sunlit garden laid to lawn and enclosed by mature shrubbery for privacy. A paved patio area offers the perfect spot for outdoor seating or summer dining, complemented by useful external storage.
Stepping inside, a front porch opens into a welcoming living room centred around a solid fuel stove, creating a cosy focal point and a true sense of cottage warmth. This flows seamlessly through to a charming kitchen diner, fitted with contemporary grey-fronted units, integrated appliances, and decorative ceiling beams that add to the home’s character. Cleverly designed pull-out storage drawers sit beneath the staircase, while a breakfast bar provides casual dining space.
Patio doors from the kitchen open into a bright side conservatory with tiled flooring, offering a pleasant additional living space with direct access to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a beautifully styled bathroom with marble-effect tiling and sleek black fittings.
To the first floor are two comfortable bedrooms, with a fixed staircase leading up to a second-floor converted loft space.
