Discover the epitome of coastal luxury at Buckmaster House – where history meets grandeur, and every view is a masterpiece.

Step into an extraordinary opportunity to acquire this truly magnificent residence, nestled along Western Esplanade commanding panoramic vistas of the North sea.

Constructed in 1895, Buckmaster House originally served as a convalescent home for ladies from London to enjoy the crisp clean sea air. Laden with history and overflowing with character, it's no wonder The Ward Lock travel guide once hailed this edifice as "one of the most handsome in the town". And most recently served as a care home.

This impressive estate now boasts 22 bedrooms, each accompanied by its own ensuite. Towering ceilings embellished with exquisite chandeliers and gilding evoke a sense of opulence and refinement. A sweeping staircase gracing the entrance hall forms a focal point exuding sheer luxury and vastness. The graceful arch doorways, a hallmark of late 19th-century architecture, pay homage to the era's craftsmanship and sophistication, instantly transporting you to a realm reminiscent of Downton Abbey. With its spacious kitchen, grand lounge, and elegant dining room, all set on approximately 2 acres of land this property surpasses mere description—it demands to be experienced first-hand.

To arrange your personal viewing around this magnificent property call TMS Estate Agents where a member of the team will be pleased to help you. Available 7 days a week.
