Set in an enviable location with a commanding position providing
sea views that alter their mood and demeanour from day to day -
Greycourt is a period home with true grace and elegance."We had
known Greycourt for some time" says Moira "and when the owner
announced that it was to go on the market - we didn't hesitate! The
house is such a grand lady, with many of her original features to
enjoy and admire, we all instinctively knew that this was home and
that we would be so very happy here". On entering the house one is
greeted by a sizeable entrance hall that is a reception room in
it's own right. A bohemian crystal chandelier adds to the overall
effect which is completed by the stunning dog-leg staircase, window
lights of original stained glass panels and a truly magnificent
fireplace with it's wood surround and large overmantle "When the
sun shines through the stained glass it settles on the crystal
chandelier and dances around the room" continues Moira. It's
Edwardian proportions and original features add so much to the
elegant ambiance of this fine home - but move towards the kitchen
and we discover a truly exciting space which is definitely 21st
Century. "We extended out to the rear of the house and built a
wonderful kitchen, dining and family area" adds Paul "in many ways
it is the absolute heart and hub of the entrire household,
especially during summer days and balmy evenings. It is perfect for
informal parties and kitchen suppers - and with the bi-folding
doors fully opened, children and guests just drift seamlessly
between this fabulous room and the gardens. It opens up the house
to the outdoor space and it is the room where everyone seems to
naturally migrate". Surrounded by hedges and large mature trees,
the gardens are wonderfully private and not overlooked - and adds a
special dimension to life within the house, especially so, when one
considers the convenience of the location! "We shall miss being
able to walk everywhere" says Moira "everything we need, shops,
schools, banks, post office - everything is within walking
distance. Even the beach and the shore are a few steps away and
many is the time when the day has been long and hot - we take a
picnic and a bottle of wine across to the beach and just let the
remains of the day melt away, along with any cares or worries.
Greycourt is indeed a grand old lady and it has been a true
privilege to live in such a wonderful house, our whole family have
been so incredibly happy here. I know that the new owners will be
every bit as happy and contented, as we have been. Living here has
been absolutely everything we ever hoped it would be - and then so
very much more!".
