ONTHE BEACH

ASIX-BEDROOM yellow home brings a sunny outlook to this row of period terrace homes which stand on one of the prime seaside spots in the region, with direct access onto the Borth’s three-mile beach.

But the uplifting yellow facade of the house for sale is not the only property on the street bringing colour to the seafront.

This colourful Ceredigion street includes homes boasting salmon pink, lime green, navy, sky blue and sea green walls which create an eyecatching street scene view from the Blue Flag Award-winning beach.

But the prime view is surely from these homes looking out, as the street is literally on the seafront of this sandy shore.

A new owner of this lovely yellow property called Picton House will be able to open the front door, take four

steps down the garden path, cross the lane and dive their toes into the soft, warm sand.

From any of the front windows and the front garden of this home, there are sweeping and uninterrupted views of the pebble and sand shoreline, with constant entertainment from the waves, the weather and the visitors to this attractive beach.

From the lounge, master bedroom, study and two top-floor bedrooms, the sea view is captivating and distracting. But the rear rooms should not feel left out, as there are panoramic rural views from the back of the property, stretching to mountains on the horizon.

According to the estate agent selling the house, the property has been renovated and modernised over several years, resulting in a family home that has combined original period features with contemporary additions.

Of course, the interior design throughout the home is based around the use of accent colours, from the muted greens in the lounge to the pops of upholstery colour in the dining room. And don’t be surprised to see yellow within the mix of colours within this home too.

These feature colours sing to the maximum against a backdrop of neutral greys, creams and very subtle pinks.

The home has a wealth of period features that the current owners have lovingly restored and ensured that they are a key focal point within the home’s new interiors.

Charming fireplaces, ceiling roses and cornicing, picture rails and deep skirtings, original built-in cupboards and feature bay windows all bring character to the stylish seaside home.

The front lounge is a most inviting space, not only showcasing the views and the fireplace, but having a calm and warm interior design perfect for relaxing.

Further down the hall, the next room to entice you in is the dining room, with its colourful interior probably matching the vibrant dinner parties and family gatherings that must surely occur regularly in this room.

The renovation of the home has seen the creation of a utility room and downstairs cloakroom at the end of the hall before it opens up into a contemporary kitchen that has direct access into the garden through bifold doors.

In keeping with the tasteful style of the home, the kitchen is light and bright, with subtle cream units, glass splashbacks and white walls ensuring that the warmth of the solid bamboo worktops is one of the main highlights of the space, coupled with a splash of colour above the oven.

The large kitchen island has a handy breakfast bar and the space flows into a snug that directly overlooks the garden views and could easily be a breakfast room, creating a generous kitchen diner.

On the first floor the master bedroom is at the front of the property, enjoying an elevated position above the beach views from a bay window.

Next to this bedroom is a room currently being used as a study but this space could easily be another bedroom, or a walk-in wardrobe and dressing room to the master.

On this floor there’s a large family bathroom with a sunken bath, an additional shower room and a large bedroom at the back.

Currently, this room is a child’s dream space as it has an ensuite playroom as well as an ensuite shower room.

On the top floor, there are three extra bedrooms all decorated with style and taste and, of course, colour.

Outside, the beach is the star of the show but at the back of the home the pretty garden includes a vegetable patch, a shed and workshop, and a greenhouse as well as parking for four cars.
