Perched above the picturesque village of Berrynarbour, just moments from the rugged beauty of the South West Coast Path, this exceptional residence presents a rare opportunity to own one of the area's most distinctive coastal homes. Formed from two once-separate dwellings (Fircroft & Tresco), now combined into one via a luxurious swimming pool and vaulted summer room. The property offers not only remarkable accommodation but also a lifestyle defined by space, light and luxury perfect for multiple occupants.

From the very first glimpse, the approach sets the tone. A sweeping, waved driveway curves gracefully toward the house, framed by mature planting and accompanied by a bespoke summerhouse. Currently arranged as a private office, this elegant outbuilding offers the perfect place to work, read or simply retreat, blending practicality with charm.

The main residence itself unfolds with ease, its interiors immaculate and generous in scale. Within the property, seven bedrooms are complemented by three bathrooms, two kitchens, two dining rooms, a conservatory and a utility room—providing a rare versatility to suit extended families, guests, or even multi-generational living. Two of the bedrooms are presently arranged as a study and studio, demonstrating the home's adaptability. Every space has been thoughtfully improved and meticulously maintained over the past two decades, creating an environment where modern comfort meets timeless elegance.

Yet it is the leisure facilities that elevate this property into a class of its own. At its heart lies a spectacular indoor swimming pool, crowned by a vaulted ceiling and enclosed by dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that frame uninterrupted views across the Bristol Channel. Whether enjoyed at sunrise with the first light dancing across the water, or at dusk as the sun sets over the horizon, the pool room offers an ever-changing theatre of coastal beauty. Alongside, a hot tub and sauna complete a private wellness suite of enviable indulgence.

To the rear, the landscaped gardens provide both tranquillity and entertainment in equal measure. Sweeping lawns flow from the house, while a smart composite deck extends to a heated outdoor swimming pool—an irresistible setting for summer gatherings and al fresco dining. Here, long afternoons drift into golden evenings, with the sea glinting beyond and the scent of salt in the air.

Berrynarbour itself is a jewel of North Devon, a charming village with a welcoming community, yet with the South West Coast Path and dramatic clifftop walks on the doorstep. The property's elevated position affords a sense of privacy and retreat, while still placing you within easy reach of local amenities, the nearby harbour town of Ilfracombe, and the sweeping beaches of Woolacombe and Saunton.

This is more than just a house; it is a coastal sanctuary, offering both grandeur and intimacy, designed as much for entertaining as for quiet reflection. A rare opportunity to acquire a home that embraces the very best of North Devon's dramatic landscape, while offering the indulgence of a private estate.

Fine & Country proudly presents this remarkable property: a home where elegance, seclusion, and lifestyle converge by the sea.

Agents Notes: Vendor has said that, at this time, Tresco is classed as an annexe, so council tax is at 50%. The indoor pool and conservatory are connected to Tresco bills.
