White Horses magnificently stands in the heart of Bantham village. Steeped in rich history, the 19th century house offers the perfect retreat and entertainment factor. The breathtaking panoramic views across the Avon Estuary, Bantham and Burgh Island in the distance, truly make this majestic property very special.
Upon entry to the main house you are welcomed with a brightly lit entrance hall with globe pendant hanging lights and ample coat hanging space. To the right, a small vanity room can be found. Further into the entrance hall, next to the bathroom a large utility and wet room offers a washing machine, tumble dryer and shower with access from the main house and outside door. Perfect for beach days to leave wetsuits and towels and wash off sandy toes before emerging back into the entrance hall. Directly across from the utility, a set of large wooden doors open into the fantastic open plan shaker style kitchen diner. This massive entertainment area offers a fantastic farmhouse kitchen table, a full whole wall bookshelf and writers desk. The main kitchen makes perfect for large dinner parties with all the family and friends dining together. The kitchen is fully equipped with two ovens, built in fridge freezer, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, coffee machine, kettle and much more. Large French doors open fully out onto the sheltered patio area that overlooks the garden. The indoor – outdoor dining functionality of White Horses is a brilliant feature of this property and allows for inclusion of all in one place.
The garden is what childhood dreams are made of. The huge lawn garden turns easily into an adventure playground for hide and seek, football tournaments, or even building dens. A hidden pathway through the hedge leads down to the estuary where the passing tide provides endless hours of fun. Whether you wish to leap into the water and let the ‘Swoosh’ carry you down the estuary or explore the marine conservation zone and area of outstanding natural beauty via paddleboards, endless amounts of excitement and memories are here to be made.
Back into the house, just off the kitchen, a small set of stairs lead you into the lounge snug where a wide screen TV and log burner reside for those cosy evenings where the doors can be shut and a hideaway retreat emerges.
The entrance hall houses the grand contemporary staircase leading you to the first floor where the main house master bedroom, the gorgeous White Room is found. Waking up in the super comfy super king size bed, overlooking the beautiful view of the garden and coast, is that of dreams. Next door, the bunk bed room offers a double bed bottom and single bed top, perfect for the kids.
The shared family bathroom can be found diagonally across the landing and includes the bath and overhead shower, toilet and sink.
