DESCRIPTION 35 Church Street encompasses a number of elements which add up to a most unique property with excellent potential for a number of uses. The Ground Floor is currently used as a restaurant and wine bar, with a large dining room, adjacent to a snug bar with woodburner. Behind these rooms and the accompanying cloakrooms are two kitchens; one commercial, and two further store rooms currently used as ancillary to the business.

On the first floor is a spacious residential property with large drawing room, bathroom, study and four bedrooms. All the rooms are beautifully proportioned and there are many original Georgian features. Stairs rise to a fabulous space under the eaves on the second floor, currently used as an artists studio.

The space outside is as impressive as the interior and includes a two storey barn which would make a fabulous conversion to a cottage, and a number of further outbuildings with a range of uses. Additionally, there is a lovely enclosed and private courtyard, offering parking for several cars, or an alternative use as café seating area.

Lastly there is a truly lovely garden with lawns, mature trees and shrubs and flower borders. The garden is south facing and very quiet and peaceful.

This is a very large and truly unique property with the potential to provide a stunning family home with additional cottage and several income streams from complementary businesses. 

SITUATION Modbury is a picturesque Georgian town situated in an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty', and is only about 4 miles from the nearest beach.
