SITUATION & DESCRIPTION
The old primary school in Kingswear comprises two separate buildings which are inter-connected and cover an area of approximately 4730 sqft. The first is a stone built, Victorian construction which was the original school building, the second being a late twentieth century addition. The site sits between Lower Contour Road and Wood Lane, and total approx 0.25 acres.
Subject to planning consent, this property could be put to a number of uses and the former playground could be transformed into a delightful, level garden. Parking is on road. The old school is in a superb location with majestic views across the Dart estuary to Dartmouth and beyond and only a few minutes’ walk from the Higher Contour vehicle and passenger ferry which crosses the river to the centre of Dartmouth. Kingswear has a selection of pubs/restaurants, a village shop and has a thriving community. The Torbay resorts are a relatively short drive away; Brixham is 5 miles, Paignton 7.5 miles and Torquay 11 miles distant.
