Searching for a scenic spot by the sea? Well, you can't get any closer than this townhouse perched in the harbour town of Brixham. Welcoming guests with its understated elegance and vast sea views, it is a humble home that will bring your quintessential British seaside experience to life. Cosy interiors featuring a traditional fireplace and a snug corner sofa in the living room create the perfect space for sleepy evenings in, after spending long days out taking in the fresh sea air. Enjoy some tea and pastries at the bistro table on the flower-filled patio when the sun is shining or from the armchair in the living room overlooking the sea on chillier days. Since the heart of Brixham town centre is well within reach, the local area is best explored on foot or by bicycle, and the stunning vistas along the promenade will be calling your names come rain or shine. Enjoy seafood platters at the local eateries, wander around the seaside boutiques, and spend long afternoons crabbing off the marina. Those looking for the more strenuous activity will love the breathtaking coastal hikes of South Devon's coast. As you bid the day farewell back at home, take a glass of wine to the patio to watch the fishermen come in for the evening as the sun sets in across the horizon.
