A twelve bedroom late Victorian Villa located in an elevated position along Westgate Bay with outstanding sea views.
A late Victorian Villa built on a commanding, elevated position overlooking the sea, surrounded by similar substantial properties, Exbury is a fine example of late 19th century architecture. This property has been externally maintained to the highest standards with recently updated gas central heating and sympathetic double glazing plus a high -quality passenger lift . Many of the original design features remain intact including a hand- crafted feature staircase, fireplaces , mouldings and joinery.
Exbury was built with comfort and convenience in mind with ample space and attention to maximising the wonderful seascape and soaking in the sunlight from East through South and enjoying the West setting sun over the sea horizon. The house is entered by a feature main door into a lobby and onto the dining room with doors off into a beautiful double window sea view sitting room with working fireplace. To the rear, a kitchen overlooking the landscaped garden and has additional space with a walk-in pantry and a substantial utility room. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cupboards and worksurfaces but would make a great blank canvas for a more modern layout. There is a narrow brick staircase down to a range of basement rooms witch house some services and is used as a dry and spacious storage facility.
The first floor has a range of bedrooms all taking advantage of the views. The second floor has a further two bedrooms overlooking the gardens and a side bedroom . Enjoying the direct sea view is a further bedroom and a substantial part-vaulted ceiling bedroom with a higher level sea view window.
Externally the house is approached directly off the wide Sea Road which sweeps along the edge of the sea, with a private driveway leading to the rear garage . The front elevation is set high above Sea Road, at the rear is an enclosed landscaped garden with plants and shrubs.
