Elevate your expectations

A prestigious area, close to vibrant bars, boutiques and restaurants of Leigh Broadway, No. 66, Leigh Cliff Road distinguishes itself from the neighbouring handsome homes with its eye-catching and contemporary design, combining stunning cedar panelling, glass and textured stone.

Parking, a luxury along Leigh Cliff Road, is available for up to three cars on the block paved driveway, with neatly planted borders to the sides. There is also a useful store, to the left of the stylish, contemporary front door.

Sea views from the door

From beneath the portico entrance, turn around to admire the dreamy sea views – visible right from the entrance to No. 66, Leigh Cliff Road. Beyond the front door, emerge into the entrance hallway, light and bright, with lightly-toned parquet flooring underfoot.

Stash your coats, shoes, bucket and spade in the storage-laden, double-door cloakroom before continuing along the entrance hallway, where further closet space can be found beneath the stairs, just past the handy downstairs WC, also furnished with wash basin.

The heart of the home

Ahead, emerging into the stunningly spacious, open plan kitchen-diner, this Tardis of a home truly opens up and reveals itself. With the glazed French doors sliding back to draw in light, offering instant connection with the lounge and garden beyond, all eyes of the home are focused towards the rear, creating a cosy sense of separation from the wider world.

OWNER QUOTE: “I love how hidden away it is, once you’re indoors, you feel as if you can close the door on the world; you’re in your own space, it’s so cosy.”

Wine and dine

Sociably styled, a combination of textures combine to create a space of sensory delight in No. 66, Leigh Cliff Road’s kitchen-dining room, cleverly zoned to offer pockets of retreat, whilst remaining open and family-friendly. An exposed stone fireplace with stove offers a warm and welcoming focal point, beyond which an in-built booth with Chesterfield-style seating is the perfect place for family dining, bathed in light from a side window.

Family time

Currently, one area of this capacious dining kitchen has been cleverly and simply partitioned by furniture to offer a safe space for children to play, whilst the central island topped in marbled quartz and distinguished by beautiful grey and white patterned tiles, delineates the main practical cooking area of the room.

Brimming with storage and plentifully furnished with a Falcon cooker and wine fridge, there is also space for an American style fridge-freezer. Every inch of space has been thoughtfully considered and maximised, with wine bottle storage, shelving for glasses and champagne flutes, and an abundance of drawer space. The handy utility room offers further storage alongside a brand-new boiler, large sink and plumbing for a washer-dryer.

OWNER QUOTE: “All the glass keeps the home light and connected – even though the two rooms are separate – it’s the best of both worlds.”

Flow freely between the kitchen-dining room to the lounge beyond, where handsome wood plank flooring gleams in the sunlight, adding a formality and comfort to the room that is further enhanced by the stunning cast iron, ornamental fireplace within its exposed brick chimney breast.

OWNER QUOTE: “It’s such a warm home – it really retains the heat.”

Patio doors running the length of the wall provide an unbroken connection to the garden, infusing the space with light. Slide open the doors and bring the outdoors in, with direct access out onto the patio.

Bathed in sunshine for most of the day, Astro turf stretches back from the patio, ensuring the garden remains an all-season space, whatever the time of year or weather. Edged in neat pebble borders, silver birch trees and a fiery red acer bring a rush of colour in the spring, summer and autumn.
