Property of the Week: Moorcroft, Sidmouth

This prominent 1930s residence was once owned by the Cunard family, widely known for its association with the luxury shipping industry. Now, it has been tastefully converted into six quality apartments, one of which is now up for sale.

The apartment for sale sits on the first floor occupying an elevated position and gaining stunning views across Sidmouth towards the sea. Its current owner has lived there for more than 16 years and has retained many characterful features one would expect from a 1930s property.
