A
very pleasant, three bedroom, modern, semi-detached house with full double glazing in a sunny sheltered position has come onto the market with Charles Head, the local independent estate agents. Vine Cottage, in the popular South Devon village of Torcross has plenty of parking and a courtyard garden affording views to the countryside, Slapton Ley and the sea beyond. This cottage is in an enviable position being only a short, mainly level walk to the Slapton Ley freshwater nature reserve and the sea at Start Bay for which Torcross is famous drawing visitors throughout the year. The sitting areas in the front and back gardens as well as the inside of this very easily run house benefit from lovely sunlight throughout the day so you can enjoy being outside or in.
The light and airy accommodation as well as its location make Vine Cottage particularly suitable for retirement or holidays but it would equally well suit a small family. It includes an entrance hall with a door to the garage so coming home in the rain needn’t be a problem.
T
Here is a downstairs cloakroom. The spacious living room with its oak fireplace feature affords a triple aspect with wide French doors opening to the back courtyard garden. This lovely room opens to the kitchen featuring a built in electric oven and ceramic hob and a timber beam feature. Storage is well catered for thanks to an understairs cupboard, a built in wardrobe in the main bedroom and a useful airing cupboard. The main and third bedrooms give you views to the countryside, the Ley and sea. The bathroom has a bath in which to have a soak after enjoying all that the area has to offer.
Torcross is in a Coastal Preservation Area at the southern end of the three mile long pebble beach from where the coastal footpath may be joined. From here enjoy the many miles of spectacular coastline. Or if you want to venture further afield there is plenty of opportunity to accommodate several cars in addition to the garage which also makes this an ideal house for visitors. But you may want to enjoy staying at home, relaxing in the sitting area in the
front garden where you can catch the morning sun or, alternatively there is the private sheltered walled and fenced paved area at the rear which is planted with a variety of flowering shrubs and climbers and is a lovely space to sit and enjoy the sunshine and views over the Ley to the sea. There is even a productive vine! The DIY enthusiast or keen gardener have a useful timber shed in one corner.
Facilities within the village include a sub post office, a pub, cafes, restaurants and within a short distance is the Stokeley Manor Farm Shop. In the nearby village of Chillington is a health centre. For more extensive facilities the towns of Kingsbridge and Dartmouth are both just seven miles away.
Vine Cottage is on the market for £335,000. To view details and more photos simply visit
