DESCRIPTION 

Luscombe Maye are delighted to bring to market this delightful period cottage, steeped in character and charm, that occupies an attractive position within the heart of a sought-after village and offers a wealth of original features throughout.

The property immediately impresses with its quintessential whitewashed façade, adorned with colourful window boxes and cottage-style planting, creating a wonderfully welcoming first impression. Inside, the accommodation is full of personality, with a charming blend of period detailing and comfortable living spaces.

The kitchen/dining room is both practical and inviting, fitted with a comprehensive range of units and offering ample space for everyday dining. Bathed in natural light, this sociable room provides an attractive setting for family meals and entertaining alike.

A particularly appealing reception room serves as a cosy retreat, featuring a wood-burning stove set within an exposed brick fireplace, flanked by bespoke book shelving. Rich colours, period furnishings, and an abundance of character features combine to create a warm and atmospheric living space.

The principal bedroom is a particularly attractive and generously proportioned double room, enjoying a pleasant outlook and benefiting from a charming window seat, creating an ideal spot to relax and take in the village surroundings. The second bedroom is a comfortable guest room or study that benefits from built-in storage. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom fitted with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC.

Throughout the property, charming cottage features, including deep-set windows, traditional styling, and an array of character details, reflect the home's heritage while providing comfortable accommodation for modern living.

The adjoining cottage is also available by separate negotiation, offering purchasers a rare opportunity to acquire both properties. This could provide scope for the creation of a larger family home, multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or potential ancillary income, subject to any necessary consents.

STOKE GABRIEL 

Stoke Gabriel is a popular and sought after village which lies in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at the head of a creek on the River Dart about three miles south-east of Totnes. The older part of the village is in a conservation area near the River and Mill Pool and much of the area is a Coastal Preservation Area. 

The heart of the village is centred around the Mill Pond, the quay on the River Dart and historic cottages, creating a postcard-perfect setting for a stroll. It’s a lovely place to spend a day by the water, enjoy riverside walks, crabbing from the quay, kayaking or paddleboarding, or simply relaxing in a pub garden. Stoke Gabriel is home to some fantastic restaurants and pubs, including Emma's and the River Shack, which are very well known for their outstanding food and service. 

The village has good facilities including a church, primary school, pre-school [2 to 5 yrs], village hall, post office, general stores and two public houses. Buyers see Stoke Gabriel as a lifestyle choice both because of the amenities that it offers and its thriving strong family social life and community spirit, with boating, canoeing and river trips on the River Dart on your doorstep. The village boating association also provides RYA sailing training for children and a year round calendar of boating events.
