The Mill house is beautifully appointed with light, airy and spacious accommodation with an abundance of characterful period features including exposed stone walls, timber beams, stone fireplaces, deep window sills and window seats. This stunning house located in a sunny position which allows plenty of natural light to flood through the large and spacious rooms. The ground floor living room and conservatory all have access to the wonderful gardens and are excellent spacious rooms for family and guest entertaining. There is a useful utility room and larder off the kitchen area and a cloakroom. There are 4 large bedrooms with 3 en-suite bathrooms/shower rooms on the first floor with a further large bedroom and cloakroom on the second floor. There are sea views from this top level.

The plot extending to approx. 1 acre includes meticulously landscaped gardens which complements the property beautifully. There are level lawns together with numerous shrubs, trees and bushes providing a profusion of colour throughout the year. There is a large ornamental greenhouse, nearby woodland and orchard with stream running along the western boundary. The original Leat can still be seen in the grounds. There are plenty of sun terraces to capture the sun throughout the day and evening. This unique location is only a 7 minutes’ walk from the popular North Sands Beach and a short walk to Salcombe town and harbour.
Situation
The beautiful estuary town of Salcombe is located in the heart of the South Devon region known as the South Hams, which is known for having an uncommonly temperate climate, verdant unspoilt countryside, hidden combes and a spectacular coastline. Arguably one of the most sought after waterfront locations in the UK, Salcombe is the perfect setting for this beautiful home. Once a thriving fishing village, Salcombe still retains much of its original charm and character. The property sits within the short distance of the town, with its many restaurants, local pubs and boutique shops. More extensive shopping and amenities are available in Kingsbridge. The Salcombe Estuary has numerous sandy beaches, coves and sheltered anchorages, all of which make it an excellent base for dingy sailing, water sports, boating and long walks along the beautiful coastline. Salcombe is also a famous yachting centre and provides a perfect cruising base from which to explore France, The Channel Islands and the beautiful harbours and creeks of the West Country. The A38 Devon Expressway is about 15 miles to the north, providing dual carriageway access to the M5 motorway at Exeter. There are good Intercity rail services from Totnes to London Paddington.
