"A well-proportioned 1920s home with garden, privacy and open sea views"
The Property
Set on the edge of the coastal village of Strete, where rolling Devon countryside softens into views of Start Bay, Seaway House is a quietly assured home that balances period character with a deeply comfortable way of living. Dating from the 1920s, this fabulous home sits lightly within its landscape, its outlook unfolding across the mature Garden, open hills and the line of the sea.
The approach is unhurried and discreet, with Driveway Parking for several vehicles and a sense of privacy that is increasingly rare so close to the coast.Inside, the proportions are generous and thoughtfully composed. The Kitchen & Dining Room forms the heart of the home, warm and sociable, anchored by a traditional Redfyre range that lends both presence and practicality.
This is a space designed for everyday life, whether sharing breakfast as the light moves across the Garden or lingering over supper as the day draws in. From here, the house flows naturally into the Living Room, a calm and inviting space centered around a woodburner. It is a room that rewards stillness, framed by views that shift with the seasons. Linking these rooms is a fully glazed Sun Room, a beautifully judged addition that draws the landscape into daily life. With views across the Garden to the sea beyond, it becomes a place to read, gather or simply to sit and watch weather and light play across the horizon.
Upstairs, the sense of space continues. Two large Double Bedrooms open directly onto a generous Terrace with glazed balustrading, allowing elevated views across Start Bay while maintaining a feeling of shelter and privacy. The Garden below unfolds gently, a quiet counterpoint to the wider coastal panorama. A stylish Family Bathroom serves this level, finished with a calm, understated elegance. A third Double Bedroom completes the accommodation, offering flexibility for guests or home working, while a useful Shower Room on the ground floor adds everyday convenience.
Externally
The Garden has been carefully shaped to complement the setting. Lawn, mature planting and an elevated Patio Terrace for outdoor dining create distinct spaces that feel both intimate and open. A substantial detached Garden Room sits within the grounds, positioned to make the most of the remarkable views and offering potential as a Home Office, Studio, Retreat or simply a place to enjoy the outlook in all seasons.
A Garage and Garden Shed provides practical storage without intruding on the sense of calm.
