luxury houses with sea view for sale Brook, United Kingdom
Seaside house with garden and terrace Brook (United Kingdom)
On sale for only the second time in forty years, an iconic coastal retreat with panoramic sea views and timeless character. Set along the protected Heritage Coastline and just moments from one of the Island’s most dramatic sandy beaches, this exceptional four bedroom detached residence offers a rare opportunity to embrace coastal living at its finest. With the beach only a short stroll away, renowned for surfing, kite surfing, windsurfing, swimming and miles of unspoilt shoreline, this home is perfectly positioned for those seeking both tranquillity and adventure. Surrounded by National Trust land, the property enjoys immediate access to footpaths leading up onto The Downs, placing some of the Island’s most breathtaking scenery right on your doorstep. Originally built as a pair of farm workers’ cottages, the home has been thoughtfully renovated and extended into a beautifully crafted residence that blends period charm with modern comfort. South facing and bathed in natural light, the property boasts uninterrupted views across the English Channel and towards the dramatic chalk cliffs rising to Tennyson Monument, the Island’s second‑highest point. Whether basking in summer sunshine or watching winter waves crash against the cliffs, the outlook is nothing short of spectacular. Set within approximately 0.52 acres, the grounds are both generous and enchanting. The main garden is secluded, easy to maintain and bordered by an attractive stream. A rose covered archway leads to a hidden “secret garden,” fully enclosed and offering a peaceful sanctuary with its own natural water feature. The gated driveway provides ample parking, while a detached double garage, partially converted into a games room, offers versatility and potential for further adaptation. Inside the house is warm and welcoming. Just off the entrance porch is a downstairs shower room and loo, which also houses the washing machine and tumble dryer. The light, spacious hallway / study leads into the kitchen / dining room which enjoys three windows framing views over the garden, fields, sea and the white cliffs of Tennyson Downs: a truly inspiring setting for everyday living. A stable door opens to the rear porch / boot room (perfect for containing a wet dog after a muddy walk!) and the garden beyond. The South facing sitting room is a standout space, offering dual aspect views across the garden to the lake and sea beyond. Across the upper floors, the bedrooms are bright and well proportioned, and all have wonderful views. The smaller 4th bedroom has been plumbed for conversion to a bathroom should future owners require this. There are two bathrooms with loos which are simple and elegant: one includes a bath / shower, whilst the other provides a fully tiled, walk in shower. Outside, a stone patio provides an idyllic vantage point for enjoying the sea views, leading onto the lawned garden. From here there is gated access to the enclosed ‘secret garden’. This remarkable home offers a rare blend of coastal beauty, historic charm, and modern comfort, an inspiring retreat in one of the Island’s most treasured landscapes.
