Seven Seas is a stunning coastal home set in an elevated position allowing wonderful views to the sea beyond the lush green of the foreground. It is understood that the house featured in the Ideal Home Exhibition before being established in St Margarets Bay.

Comprehensively refurbished over recent years, the original design of the house has leant itself beautifully to pared back, contemporary styling.

The light, airy accommodation is arranged around a largely open-plan living area finished throughout in beautiful light oak herringbone flooring. The design of the interior creates an oasis of calm sophistication in which to live and entertain against a spectacular and peaceful backdrop. The rear wall is entirely glazed, capturing the breathtaking views to the full. The deck wraps round two sides of the space and, accessed via glazed doors from here and the kitchen, provides a seamless connection between the inside and outside.

Fitted with sleek, white cabinetry a breakfast bar creates a subtle divide to the adjoining dining and sitting area. A spiral staircase leads down to a cinema/music room, where glazed sliding doors open to a lower deck.

From the entrance hall a striking timber and glass staircase rises to a generous landing to the centre. The principal bedroom and guest room sit to the back of the house with sliding doors to a balcony. The principal has fitted wardrobes and a stylish bathroom with walk in shower and free-standing bath. Two further bedrooms share the family bathroom.<br /><br />The property offers a magnificent coastal outlook, with balconies and decks providing settings to sit, dine and entertain al fresco.

A series of steps lead down to lower terraces, where timber sleepers form retaining walls and gravel gardens create interest, with two paved seating spots, one with a pergola over.

Further steps descend to a timber outbuilding, used as a gym, and a lawned garden which in turn leads to a more naturalistic section at the far margin and lowest point of the plot.

At the front of the house the driveway provides parking for several cars and gives access to the linked double garage, where internal doors connect into the property via the utility room.<br /><br />Situated in an elevated position in sought-after St Margaret’s Bay, the property enjoys stunning sea views and easy access to the sheltered shingle beach, which has a popular cafe and an inn, The Coastguard.
