New Strete Lodge, Strete, Dartmouth

Perched above the sweeping arc of Start Bay, New Strete Lodge is a masterclass in contemporary coastal living.

Designed by acclaimed local architects BBH in 2017, this striking single-storey home blends bold architectural elegance with the gentle rhythm of nature, offering an exceptional lifestyle between the golden stretches of Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands.

From the moment the electric gates glide open and you follow the curved Driveway through beautifully landscaped grounds, the sense of arrival is unmistakable. The home unfolds like a private retreat, perfectly positioned to embrace cinematic sea views and an extraordinary connection with the landscape beyond.

Inside, the design celebrates space, light and flow. At its heart, the expansive Kitchen is both refined and relaxed — with bespoke cabinetry, high-end appliances, and a generous island that invites long breakfasts, family gatherings, or glasses of wine with friends as the sun dips over the bay.

Step through to the showstopping Living and Dining room, where vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass walls open up to the sky and sea. Here, every glance out the window captures a new mood — mist over the water, the sparkle of sunlight, or the silhouettes of passing boats. It's a space where conversation flows effortlessly, evenings feel timeless, and the view never stops being extraordinary.

The Principal Suite is an exquisite haven, positioned to catch the first light of day. Full-height sliding doors lead onto the terrace, making morning coffee and sunrise rituals part of daily life.

The En-suite Bathroom is pure indulgence — complete with a soaking tub, wetroom shower, and elegant fittings that speak of understated luxury.

A second sea-facing Bedroom also opens onto the Terrace, perfect for welcoming guests to their own slice of the coast. Two further Bedrooms at the rear enjoy serene Garden views. Between them lies a quiet Sitting Area — a beautifully lit space for reading, painting, or peaceful contemplation, with a vaulted ceiling, large windows, and access to a sun-drenched Courtyard, ideal for afternoon tea or a moment of stillness.

Before we leave take a peek at the ever-so-useful sleek Utility Room.

Encircling the house, the Gardens are a seamless extension of the living space. The terraced front Lawn cascades gently towards the sea, while at the rear, a sheltered Courtyard and soft lawn invite lazy picnics or afternoon tea.

A detached double Garage offers ample parking and storage, complete with an adjoining Workshop for DIY, hobbies, or creative pursuits. Just beyond lies a true gardener’s dream: a beautifully maintained, walled Kitchen Garden with raised beds bursting with fruit, vegetables, and flowers. A stylish Greenhouse completes the picture — a nurturing space for growing, grounding, and slowing down.

New Strete Lodge is more than a home — it’s a place to breathe, to create, to host and to wander. A rare blend of architectural refinement and natural beauty, offering a coastal lifestyle that’s as enriching as it is effortless
