Contemporary detached house in spectacular coastal setting.
Perched in a commanding cliff-top position, this striking contemporary home is a celebration of light, space and its breathtaking coastal setting. Designed by an architect to fully embrace its dramatic surroundings, the property gazes out across the sweeping sands of East Beach and for miles up the coast, as far as Garmouth. The clean, modern silhouette of the house is softened by its natural materials, creating a welcoming presence that fits beautifully within its environment. Sitting not far from the marina, the house is wonderfully private but has all the facilities of Lossiemouth - one of Moray’s most picturesque towns – within easy reach.
The Cliff is dominated by the use of glass, with all the principal rooms benefitting from sea outlooks, and the accommodation begins with a glazed vestibule which opens into the stunning vaulted reception hallway beyond. Here, a striking wall of triple-glazed panels combined with the soaring ceiling enhances the feeling of light and space. Throughout the home, finely crafted hardwood skirting boards, architraves and doors lend warmth and display a sense of craftsmanship that is one of the hallmarks of this very special house.
At the heart of the home lies a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area—an exceptional space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Sleek driftwood-toned cabinetry is paired with polished granite worktops and integrated appliances, forming a kitchen that is as functional as it is beautiful. Dual-aspect picture windows flood the space with light, seamlessly drawing the outdoors in and ensuring the spectacular views are ever-present, whether you are dining, relaxing or preparing a meal.
The sitting room provides a more intimate retreat, where twin corner windows perfectly frame the coastline from multiple angles. A feature blue wall subtly echoes the hues of the sea, creating a calming and reflective atmosphere – an ideal setting in which to unwind while watching the shifting tides and skies.
The principal bedroom suite sits on the ground floor and has been thoughtfully designed as a private sanctuary, once again capturing the magic of the setting through its corner-aspect windows. A generous dressing room with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and en suite shower room give a boutique retreat feel to this part of the house. Bedroom four, currently utilised as an office, enjoys equally captivating twin-aspect views, and completing this level is a utility room and cloakroom/WC.
The first floor is no less impressive, where a spacious, light-filled landing benefits from the continuation of the vaulted ceiling. Two further double bedrooms are served by a beautifully designed dual-aspect en suite shower room, ensuring comfort and privacy for family or guests alike.
Outside: The property is set within a generous plot which includes sweeping areas of lawn and a driveway, all enclosed by traditional stone boundary walls and electronic gates. Along the clifftop edge, a discreet metal post and wire fence traces the boundary, allowing the remarkable outlook to remain uninterrupted while offering a sense of security above the drop to Clifton Road below. The gardens are home to a former stone watchtower and an intriguing stone-built sculpture.
Garage: A substantial double garage measures approximately 5.7m by 9m and includes an attic storage area.

I love this front row seat to nature's masterpiece. Living on the horizon with sea and beach vistas framed by striking corner windows. Perched on the edge of possibility, this setting is dramatic all in all seasons.
