Description
A rare chance to secure an exceptional architect-designed contemporary coastal home, beautifully crafted and positioned to enjoy uninterrupted sea views in complete privacy. Enjoying a sense of seclusion, the property adjoins National Trust land offering hiking and dog walking opportunities, yet remains within easy walking distance (less than 0.5 miles) of local amenities.
Originally completed in 2006, the house was engineered to a remarkable standard with a rigid lightweight steel frame anchored deep into the hillside. The exterior blends larch cladding with an inverted zinc roof fitted with pv solar panels, and high specification Schüco aluminium windows contribute to both style and energy efficiency, with an EPC rating B. A significant extension in 2018 introduced the upper floor, an elegant staircase and a striking glass atrium, all designed to enhance the home’s connection with its natural surroundings. The layout has been purposefully created, offering beautifully considered spaces that perfectly suit a couple.
The entrance opens directly into an expansive open plan living and dining area. A central fireplace with a wood burning stove creates a warm focal point, while the full height sliding glass doors frame the coastline to dramatic effect. When opened, the room spills out onto a broad sun terrace that runs the length of the house, offering a wonderful spot for dining or relaxing while listening to the waves below.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with Neolith worktops, soft close cabinetry and cleverly integrated storage. Neff appliances include an eye level oven, induction hob and ceiling mounted extractor, a Miele dishwasher, while natural stone flooring continues into a generous walk in pantry.
A thoughtfully designed library provides a quiet retreat, complete with adjustable shelving to tailor the space to either work or reading. This leads through to the winter garden; a beautifully engineered glass room intended for tender plants and peaceful enjoyment, with bespoke glazing and automated temperature, and rain sensitive opening panels.
The ground floor principal bedroom suite enjoys serene garden views through full length sliding doors and benefits from an adjoining walk in wardrobe fitted with bespoke shelving. The bathroom nearby is finished in tumbled white Italian marble and features a freestanding bath, walk-in shower and a picture window overlooking a private fern filled atrium, creating a calm and luxurious atmosphere.
The ground floor is completed by a cloakroom, next to entrance door, with large built in storage and shelving, and a customised coat room for outdoor clothing and shoes, with some above head height shelving.
Upstairs, the second bedroom captures expansive views across Lyme Bay towards Portland. Its picture windows and sliding doors open onto a large private balcony that looks out over the garden and sea. This room also has its own beautifully appointed en suite bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Outside Space and Garden:
The approach to the property is both discreet and impressive, with double electric gates opening onto a beautifully laid granite cobbled drive. Here, there is comfortable parking for two vehicles, complemented by further secure space within the single garage. The garage is fitted with an electric door and provides internal access to the house, together with practical utility fittings including Miele washing machine and dryer appliances, as well as a substantial Belfast sink.
The front entrance steps, atrium steps and main steps into garden are constructed from Portland stone, which superbly lead you to the garden, which is nothing short of remarkable. Carefully sculpted into a series of terraces, it showcased an inspired subtropical planting scheme, with a gentle, winding path guiding you through luxuriant foliage towards a number of thoughtfully placed seating areas. Each spot has been positioned to make the most of the southerly aspect and the sense of calm that defines the setting. The garden’s exceptional character has been widely recognised, earning several local awards and featuring recently on BBC Gardeners’ World (2025 Episode 15). A testament to both its beauty and the unique micro climate that enables plants rarely seen in this part of the country to flourish.
Nestled among the ferns and palms on the lower level of the garden is a wonderfully secluded studio. This charming hideaway offers an ideal retreat and also lends itself perfectly to home working. Adjacent to it, a greenhouse, from Hartley, provides excellent space to enhance the garden’s appeal, and is built on base of recycled London Brick - approx. 2.50m x 4m. The main terrace, winter garden and first floor balcony have heavy duty remote controlled sun blind.
