The Property:

Step through the vibrant orange front door and you immediately get a sense of the personality and individuality that runs throughout this truly unique home.

You are welcomed into a hallway with a slate floor and wooden staircase rising to the first floor. From here, the property opens into a characterful reception room with exposed wooden floorboards and a lovely outlook over the Ley. This inviting space features a dual-fuel wood-burning stove along with a second fireplace, currently decorative but with the potential for use.

The living area flows seamlessly into a dining space, complete with useful storage nooks, before leading into the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with solid wood units and complemented by a bespoke, handmade concrete worktop, crafted by the current owner – a distinctive and practical feature that adds to the home’s charm. There is space for an electric oven and grill, Miele Induction hob with extractor over, sink with Quooker Instant Boiling tap, and an Oven & Fisher and Paykel draw dishwasher, while the under stairs area has been cleverly converted into a larder. A breakfast bar also provides a sociable spot for informal dining.

French doors open directly onto the garden, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms and a beautifully presented family bathroom. Bedroom two is a particularly spacious double with stunning views over the Ley, wooden flooring, and a decorative fireplace. Bedroom three is another generous double, overlooking the garden and featuring a charming stone fireplace. Bedroom four is a well-proportioned single room, also enjoying views towards the Ley.

The family bathroom is stylishly finished, featuring a walk-in shower, WC, basin, heated towel rail, storage, and modern LED lighting.

A further staircase leads to the top floor, where the impressive principal bedroom occupies its own private space. This large double room enjoys far-reaching views from a Velux window, stretching along the length of the Ley and out towards the sea. There is ample eaves storage, along with a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom complete with a freestanding bath, WC, and basin.

Outside, the garden is compact yet thoughtfully designed for ease of maintenance, featuring Millboard Composite Decking and an outdoor shower with hot and cold water – perfect after a day at the beach. An outbuilding provides additional storage and doubles as a utility space with room for a washing machine and dryer.

While there is no allocated parking, a small free car park is located to the front of the property, and resident permits are available.

This is a home that has clearly been a labour of love, full of character, clever design, and unique touches throughout – a truly one-of-a-kind property. The property would make a great holiday rental as well as a lovely home and the vendors have advised that they would be open to selling the property furnished if desired.

Quote from the vendor: "Seaway is the gift that keeps on giving. This Tardis of a house not only provides spacious open plan living but magical views you will wake up to every day. With a nature reserve on your doorstep and the South Devon Coastline a stone’s throw away. Don’t waste another minute, go up to the master bedroom and just take a look for yourself. I dare you!"

A popular destination with families, dog owners and also those with additional accessibility requirements, the village benefits from The Start Bay Inn pub, famous for its Fish & Chips as well as The Billy Can Cafe which is full of nostalgic charm and delicious cakes.
