With panoramic views stretching across Morecambe Bay, the approach is along the elevated coastal road of Heysham Head, arriving at the private road of The Headlands. The Headlands is an exclusive collection of detached homes built on the former grounds of Heysham Head and bordered by protected National Trust land.

From the driveway, a paved path leads around to the front entrance. The front door opens into an impressive reception hall, generous enough to accommodate a formal dining area. Practical features include a double cloaks cupboard, cloakroom with WC and an understairs storage cupboard. The wood-effect laminate flooring creates a seamless flow through the space and complements the neutral interiors, enhanced by intricate coving.

Double doors lead into the living room, where your attention is immediately drawn to the bi-folding doors framing the spectacular coastal outlook. Opening onto a raised seating area, the panoramic views across Morecambe Bay provide a stunning backdrop to the garden, with roses lining the stone wall, a protected field beyond and uninterrupted views across the bay.

Flooded with natural light and thoughtfully designed to connect with its surroundings, the room features bespoke wooden cupboards, shelving and a radiator cover. A Portuguese limestone fireplace houses a gas fire, ideal for creating a warm and intimate atmosphere during the colder months. A sliding door leads into the conservatory, which was added in 2003. The tiled flooring benefits from underfloor heating, while the dual-aspect design ensures the exceptional coastal outlook remains a constant feature. French doors provide access to the gardens, while an internal door leads through to the kitchen.

Handcrafted by a local joiner to the vendors' exacting standards, this dining kitchen is undoubtedly the heart of the home, creating a welcoming and sociable environment. The wooden units are painted cream, with matching detailing throughout the room creating a cohesive aesthetic. Beautifully crafted solid wood worktops gently curve around the space, enhancing practicality and character.
