Full Details SITUATIONSkylark is found in an extraordinary location - nestled in the stunning Combe valley just a 15 minute walk (or 5 minute drive) from South Sands beach. Built on the side of the valley, the property gains maximum benefit from the path of the sun through the day and enjoys beautiful views over the adjoining fields and woodland in this peaceful location. Deer, foxes, owls and badgers are your neighbours.ACCOMMODATIONThe property itself has been well maintained to a high standard and provides family sized accommodation as well as the opportunity for an Airbnb business. There is ample parking with a long driveway, garage and carport. The gardens are landscaped to provide paved and gravelled terraces with stone retaining walls and a wild flower area.
Inside, the house is extremely spacious with every major room taking maximum benefit from the south facing aspect, utilising large picture windows and sliding doors, with the balcony providing additional sitting-out space and capitalising on the breathtaking views.
One of the joys of Skylark is the proximity to South Sands - no need for a mooring (always difficult to obtain), you can store your boat on the property and launch it from the public slipway.
