Description
Lowick is a fine period house, built in 1936, which is beautifully presented, on the edge of the town with stunning, uninterrupted views towards Dartmoor as well as glimpses of the Kingsbridge Estuary. The current owners have lived at the house for over 45 years and have meticulously maintained and extended the property. With over 2,000 square foot of accommodation, the house benefits from lovely large windows enabling plenty of light to enter the house, with both the dining room and Bedroom 3 enjoying bay windows. A modern family bathroom is found on the first floor and the master bedroom (extended to the rear) has an en-suite shower room. Downstairs a good sized sitting room with coal-effect gas fire and a separate dining room compliment the kitchen, cloakroom, utility room and study. Overall a fantastic family home.
At first floor level, plans were drawn up and passed (now lapsed) for an extension to the master bedroom to create ancillary accommodation.
Outside the house is approached either from Fortescue Road or Main Road. From Main Road, there are two parking spaces with steps leading up to the front of the house. From the rear, there is parking adjacent to the double and single garage, with additional parking (suitable for boats/trailers and/or mot found along the unmade road (which is owned by Lowick) at the very end of this cul-de-sac. The gardens have been landscaped to allow them to be low maintenance, with paved steps leading from the rear parking area/garaging down to the house.
Overall there are beautiful views from all the main rooms and the front garden and terrace towards Dartmoor, with the spire of Malborough Church in the distance as well as part of the Kingsbridge Estuary.
The house is exceptionally well located within easy walking distance of The Berry (perfect for dog walking), the local primary school, petrol station and the Spar shop. The walk into town is not far, where one can enjoy all the further amenities Salcombe has to offer including cafes, restaurants, galleries, together with access to Estuary at Whitestrand and Normandy and the ferries to East Portlemouth and South Sands. The South West Coast Path is also within easy reach.
