Set above the harbour town of Watchet with sweeping views over the hills, sea and coastline, this handsome period home is full of potential. From its elevated position, the house enjoys a prime outlook across the town, the West Somerset Railway line, and out towards the water – a view that shifts with the seasons and never gets old. With its double-fronted façade, bay windows, and landscaped front garden, it’s a striking home from the street and even more special once inside.
Ross loves - "The view from this home is just incredible – the kind that stops you in your tracks, no matter how many times you’ve seen it. There's a real sense of space and light throughout the house, especially in the main living room where the sea feels like it’s part of the décor. And with such a solid layout, there’s so much potential here to modernise and make it your own – a proper forever home in the making."
The layout is spacious and adaptable, with three to four bedrooms across two floors, and the kind of flexibility that will suit a variety of buyers. Downstairs, the main living room spans the depth of the house and is full of natural light, thanks to its triple aspect and large bay window framing that sea view. There's a separate kitchen/breakfast room with traditional cabinetry and access to a rear lobby and shower room. At the front of the house is an additional bay fronted reception room that’s currently used as a dining and yoga room – but could easily work as a snug, playroom, or it could even be combined with the adjacent kitchen to create a show stopping open plan kitchen/dining room!
Upstairs are three further bedrooms – two generous doubles at the front, each enjoying uninterrupted sea views, and a smaller single at the rear, currently set up as a home office. The family bathroom is also at the back, with the added bonus of eaves storage and space to potentially reconfigure.
Outside, the front garden is beautifully planted, sloping gently down towards the road with a mix of mature shrubs and palms that complement the house’s period façade. To the rear, a terraced courtyard-style garden offers low-maintenance space for seating and planting, with a large shed/store and steps connecting front and back. Parking is tucked away off a private lane behind the property, together with a single garage.
While the house is ready for some modernisation, it’s full of promise – a rare chance to breathe new life into a home with such a strong sense of style and a setting that’s hard to beat. The town centre, marina, and coast path are just steps away, and the ever-popular community of Watchet continues to attract those looking for seaside living with character and heart.
If you’re looking for a coastal home with real potential and one of the best outlooks in town, this is a fantastic opportunity.
