Overview
White-rendered house built into the rock above the harbour, with a sunken courtyard.
Cliffside White is wedged into the granite above the harbour, so that the back wall of the living room is the cliff itself. A sunken courtyard catches the sun and shelters you from the sea wind.
The harbour, the oyster bar and the sailing school are all down the Gull Steps — 94 of them, the owners counted.
