Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this four-double-bedroom detached house offers nearly 2,030 sq ft of well-presented family living and sweeping panoramic views over fields to the estuary. The ground floor flows from a modern kitchen into a large dining and lounge area, with an oversized viewing conservatory that captures evening sunsets and adds versatile living space. A study and integral garage add practical flexibility for home working and storage.
Upstairs the principal bedroom opens onto a balcony with the standout estuary outlook, and includes an en-suite. Three further double bedrooms (two with fitted wardrobes) and a family bathroom with a roll-top bath complete the first floor. The house benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating and a filled cavity construction from the late 1970s/early 1980s.
Outside, a block-paved driveway provides multi-vehicle and boat parking and there is private, enclosed lawned garden with raised decking to make the most of the views — good for entertaining or calmer family use. The location is a short walk from the village centre, local amenities and good Ofsted-rated primary schools, while coastline and leisure facilities are nearby.
Considerations: the property dates from 1976–82 so some systems and finishes may soon require updating; the precise date of glazing installation is unknown. Broadband is average for the area and council tax is described as expensive. Overall this is a spacious, scenic family home that will particularly suit buyers seeking generous living space and strong outdoor vistas rather than a brand-new turnkey finish.
