A unique coastal home occupying an elevated position with breathtaking beach views and exceptional potential in the heart of Ogmore-by-Sea.
Occupying a commanding elevated position above Ogmore-by-Sea, White Lodge on Main Road is a unique and much-loved coastal home enjoying magnificent views over the beach, coastline and surrounding village.
Owned and cherished by the same family for many years, the property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a home of considerable character and potential in one of the Vale of Glamorgan's most sought-after seaside locations. While now requiring modernisation, the property presents an exceptional canvas for a purchaser wishing to create a spectacular coastal residence tailored to their own requirements.
The accommodation extends to approximately 1,591 sq ft within the main house and is arranged to take full advantage of the wonderful outlook from the front elevation. A generous living room enjoys large picture windows framing the coastal views, while the adjoining kitchen and dining room provide excellent entertaining and family space. The ground floor also offers a principal bedroom, two further bedrooms, a family bathroom and additional bedroom accommodation, providing a flexible layout suitable for a variety of buyers.
The first floor incorporates a further sitting room, bedroom and useful storage rooms, creating additional living accommodation with scope for reconfiguration if desired, subject to any necessary consents.
A particular feature of the property is the substantial detached studio garage located to the rear. Extending to approximately 627 sq ft, the building benefits from a striking vaulted ceiling and a spiral staircase rising to a mezzanine study area. From here there are attractive elevated views, creating an inspiring workspace, studio or hobby room. A separate summer house further enhances the outdoor accommodation.
Outside, the property is approached via vehicle access from Sutton Rise, leading to driveway parking for one car. The gardens have been thoughtfully created over many years and form a delightful setting for the house. Arranged on a series of private terraces, stone retaining walls and well-stocked borders, the gardens descend towards Main Road and include a level lawn to the front, ideal for enjoying the coastal setting and remarkable outlook towards the beach.
The exceptional position, established gardens and breathtaking views combine to create a property of genuine distinction. Whilst requiring updating, White Lodge represents a rare opportunity to realise the full potential of a unique seaside home in an outstanding location.
What struck me immediately about White Lodge was the extraordinary outlook. The views from the front elevation are simply captivating and, combined with the elevated position and beautifully established gardens, create something truly special. This is a home that has clearly been cherished for many years and now offers a wonderful opportunity for the next owner to reimagine and enhance a unique property in an exceptional coastal setting.
