LOCATION
The pretty coastal village of Strete lies between Dartmouth and Kingsbridge, overlooking Start Bay. This bustling village is home to a popular community pub, The Kings Arms, and a village store / post office.

The neighbouring village of Stoke Fleming has a primary school. Strete is on the main bus route between Dartmouth and Kingsbridge, and both market towns offer a good range of amenities and secondary education. Dartmouth offers a
wonderful selection of shops, boutiques,
galleries, pubs and restaurants, and is home to the Britannia Royal Naval College. In addition are two supermarkets, an M&S Food Hall, a Health and Wellbeing Centre, a cinema, a leisure centre, and both indoor and outdoor swimming pools.

Strete lies within the South Hams and the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, an area famous for its stunning coastline with sandy beaches and hidden coves.

The mainline train station at Totnes runs a regular service to London in 2 hrs 40 mins, and the A38 (M5) is about 13 miles.

THE PROPERTY
Enjoying a prime elevated position with uninterrupted views across the sea, South Hillside, a superb five-bedroom semi-detached residence offers an exceptional standard of
accommodation, tastefully modernised throughout and perfectly suited to contemporary family life or refined coastal
living. Set behind a neatly landscaped frontage with up to six vehicles parking and a garage, South Hillside, originally built in 1913, was largely extended in 2016 and has been
the subject of renovation since, with a new heating system and boiler in 2023 and a new roof in 2025. The house is beautifully presented and is approached via a welcoming entrance hall which sets the tone for what lies ahead. The
ground floor accommodation flows beautifully, with a superbly appointed kitchen fitted with a range of high-quality appliances including a double oven, an induction hob, an American-style fridge-freezer, and integrated dishwasher. A separate utility room and pantry add practical convenience. Open plan to the kitchen is a light-filled dining room, with wood-burning stove and bi-fold doors opening to the living
room, another generous sized reception room with an open fire and a floor-ceiling bay window with a door to the garden.
The third and largest reception room, the sun lounge, has two sets of doors leading to the garden. All rooms benefit from gorgeous and wonderful views over the gardens and the sea
beyond—offering a truly tranquil setting in which to relax.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom is a calm and luxurious retreat with double doors opening to a Juliette balcony, and again outstanding views. This bedroom features
its own dressing room and stylish en suite shower room. A guest bedroom also benefits from an en suite, and in addition there are a further two double bedrooms and a beautifully
appointed family bathroom. The second floor offers flexibility, featuring a generous fifth double bedroom that may equally serve as a home office or study, ideal for today’s remote
working lifestyle.

GARDENS AND GARAGE
The gardens at South Hillside are beautifully kept and bordered by a picket fence that adjoins open countryside and
has a gate leading to the South-West Coast Path and beaches beyond. The gardens offer both colour and privacy, with wellstocked borders and seating areas from which to take in the sea air and magnificent coastal views. Within the gardens there is a workshop, a garden shed and a greenhouse. A driveway offers parking for about 6 cars and there is a garage with a pitched roof and storage above. In all, South Hillside offers a rare opportunity to acquire an outstanding home in an enviable
location – viewing is highly recommended.

DIRECTIONS (TQ6 0RL)
Follow the A379 from Dartmouth towards Stoke Fleming and Kingsbridge. Follow the road through Stoke Fleming and as you enter Strete, South Hillside will be found a short way along on the left, just before Vicarage Lane which will be seen ahead on your right.
