The South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – it’s quite a phrase. With such a high accolade, you can expect this region of England to offer striking shorelines, miles of greenery, and glistening rivers trickling in from coastal estuaries. Kingsbridge is a location that does exactly that. This apartment is set right on the riverbanks, just under seven miles from the beaches of Salcombe, but also less than a mile from the pubs, boutiques, and chip shops of central Kingsbridge itself. As soon as you arrive at this home, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the unexpected architecture. While stone fishing cottages might be your first idea of a stay in Devon, this modern apartment block shows off the region’s 21st-century edge. Glass-fronted balconies and white walls create a new-age nautical scene, almost reminiscent of a yacht. And the modern elegance continues indoors. We love the muted colour palette of pastels and creams, alongside sophisticated furniture with touches of wood and wicker. In your bright living space, views of the river give you a good reason to settle down on the soft, tartan sofas and wrap yourself up in woollen throws. Pour yourself a glass of champagne while you watch the boats go by, then step out for a toast on your private terrace as soon as the sun comes out.

About Salcombe
Anyone who considered buying a property in Salcombe in the ‘80s and changed their mind will be rueing their decision. The town seems to go from strength to strength and strength again, in both popularity and price point. Today’s residents are a well-heeled bunch, and in the summer months, you’ll find an equally upscale visiting crowd. Within the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Salcombe is arguably the prettiest...
