Located in the village of Kingswear – just across the River Dart from Dartmouth – this beautiful reverse level home offers breathtaking views of the river and Dartmouth from every angle. Laid out over two floors, there’s plenty of space for relaxed socialising as well as room to enjoy quiet moments alone while feasting on splendid natural vistas. Upstairs, the living room invites you to kick back on its sofa or armchairs with a glass of wine while enjoying the fresh breeze coming off of Waterhead Creek through the open glass doors. In the evenings, there’s an electric fireplace here too for added ambience, while the dining room invites celebratory feasts aplenty while gazing out over the ships sailing in and out of Dartmouth Harbour. For the best views of all, however, step out onto the private terrace where an outdoor table beckons sunny alfresco breakfasts and evening drinks on the sofa as the sun sets over the river. There’s access to this privileged spot from the second bedroom too, while the main bedroom boasts a beautiful Juliet balcony. Outside of your home, the Dartmouth Steam Railway is a seven-minute walk away, Man Sands beach is a thirteen-minute drive and Dartmouth is easily reached by ferry, a nine-minute stroll from your door.
