CLOSE to the coast near Yarmouth and with fine sea views is a spacious home wrapped around with gorgeous gardens.
Beautifully landscaped and planted gardens of almost half an acre, abounding with shrubs, are a joy to look on from the well-laid out interior of detached 17 Port la Salle.
With sea views from some areas, they stretch attractively around every side of the bright, three/four-bedroom house, which occupies one of the exclusive development’s largest plots.
But the well-kept gardens are far from just a showpiece, as double doors open onto them from the large sitting room, the dining room, conservatory and downstairs bedroom, letting in summer sunshine and having the effect of bringing them into the house.
Attracting lots of wildlife, including red squirrels, they have a choice of paved or decked sitting areas where you can relax over a meal or drink in the sun or shade, including a covered corner deck with delightful sea views.
The house, built around 12 years ago, is close to a scenic coastal walk and ideal for those with boating interests as it shares with neighbouring homes the use of a slipway.
Smart double gates lead to the large, neatly block-paved front parking area, leading to a double garage with power and light and a door to the kitchen — handy
for unloading the car in wet weather.
The entrance hall is a spacious area with a separate WC.
Double doors lead to the bright, 19ft-long sitting room with a decorative fireplace with gas fire, side sea glimpses and French doors to an inviting sunny terrace, bordered by attractive shrubs.
Through double doors is the 14ft by 14ft conservatory, with machined pine flooring, sea glimpses and lovely triple-aspect garden views as well as acess to a paved patio.
Also with sea glimpses is the good-sized dining room, with access to a decked terrace and a double-aspect study/bedroom four.
In the tile-floored kitchen, with a window to each side, is an array of oak units, an integrated dishwasher and fridge and a large seven-burner, three-oven range cooker with extractor.
Large bedroom one, with access to a side decked area, has a roomy, walk-in cupboard and a smart, good-sized en-suite shower room fully-tiled in soft grey shades.
On the first floor are two appealing double bedrooms with partly sloping ceilings and eaves storage.
There are magnificent sea views to the mainland from one of them — which could have scope for a balcony to maximise the outlook , subject to planning — and the other has a pleasant southerly garden outlook.
Completing the accommodation is the bright family bathroom, with a white suite, tiled flooring and partly-tiled walls.
Paved areas bordered by large shrubs, some studded with bright berries, stretch along each side of the home.
Beyond are lawns with small feature trees and shrubs in inset beds. There is also an enclosed productive vegetable area and a lean-to greenhouse.
