Description
Sea View and The Old Bake House is a farmhouse that has been enlarged into two cottages. It likely dates from the 17th century and was expanded in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of red sandstone random rubble and features a thatched roof that is half hipped to the left, along with a scalloped clay tile cross wing. There are sprockets and a large stack that rises from the eaves at the center, which has a slate-roofed bread oven projection.
The layout consists of three cells and a cross passage, with an outshut at the rear, creating an L-plan. The building is one and a half storeys high and has three bays on the front. Most of the windows are 19th-century wooden casements, while the first floor on the left has two early 19th-century leaded iron casements. To the right of the stack is a two-light window, and the windows in the cross wing have cambered heads.
On the ground floor, there is an inserted plank door on the left, a stone relieving arch, and a stone lintel above a three-light window to the left of the bread oven. To the right, there is a two-light window and a three-light window in the cross wing. The building also features a clay tile lean-to single-storey porch with a side light and a plank door. The right return of the building is partly rendered and includes a single light window with a depressed ogee head in the wing, a three-light window below a cement lintel on the first floor, and a two-light window on the ground floor.
