The exceptional property, that has been carefully modernised while retaining original architectural features, served as an officers' mess during the war years.
Now very much a stylish family home with driveway parking for several vehicles, its light and spacious accommodation includes elegant reception rooms, including lovely bay-fronted living room with a feature fireplace.
The dining room can cater for a larger style table and chairs, and is ideal for entertaining, while the well-appointed kitchen with fitted units and ample work surfaces, has the benefit of a separate, useful utility room.
A ground floor shower room is a great facility, and there's a bedroom at this level which is used currently as a snug.
All three double bedrooms are on the first floor, the main bedroom having wonderful views over the sea, along with a modern bathroom.
Most rooms in the house have far-reaching views, with many facing towards the coastline.
Wrap-around gardens include stretches of lawn and seating areas, perfect for relaxing in the sun or for outdoor entertaining.
There's a detached garage with additional storage, and off road parking.
A new roof was added to the house in recent years.
