Description
Larus Lea was built in 1988 and occupies a spacious plot in an outstanding elevated position with panoramic views over Lyme Bay and towards Golden Cap. In 2021 the house underwent a total renovation, now providing a striking contemporary split level styled house with spacious accommodation. The front elevation of the house is of an attractive local stone; Blue Lias and substantial areas of glazing flood the house with light.
Internally the house has been appointed to an excellent standard and the layout is designed with the view in mind. On the ground floor is a spacious reception hall with tiled floor and access to one bedroom suite, a WC, integral garage, extensive storage and laundry area. On the mezzanine floor is the second bedroom suite with sea views. On the first floor is a large open plan family kitchen with dining and living areas, vaulted ceiling and a magnificent, captivating view out to sea and over Golden Cap. Sliding doors open onto a large balcony. Also on the first floor is a third double bedroom with access onto the back terrace, a study, further WC and a utility room. On the top floor is a splendid main bedroom suite with a similarly outstanding sea view.
Outside
