Victoria Road, Dartmouth

An updated Dartmouth home with flexible accommodation over three floors, off-street parking and a terraced garden, enjoying an elevated outlook within reach of the town and waterfront. EPC Band: D.

Situation - Set on Victoria Road above Dartmouth’s historic centre, the property enjoys views across the surrounding rooftops towards the countryside and River Dart. Dartmouth offers an excellent choice of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and galleries, together with schools and the many pleasures of its waterfront. Sailing and other watersports on the River Dart, coastal walks and nearby beaches add to its year-round appeal.

The A3122 links the town with Totnes and the wider road network; Totnes, about 12 miles away, has a mainline railway station and further amenities.

Description - There is an easy rhythm to life here: mornings overlooking the hills, afternoons by the river and evenings spent in the garden or Dartmouth’s lively centre. This appealing home combines the character of its traditional frontage with bright, updated interiors and a practical arrangement over three floors.

The property has been modernised throughout, including a new roof and external cladding, while its elevated position brings an open outlook from the upper accommodation. A generous kitchen/dining room gives the house a sociable heart, and the separate sitting room offers somewhere to retreat. With three principal bedrooms and a smaller study or fourth bedroom, the layout can adapt to family life, guests or home working.

Accommodation - Steps rise from the front of the property to the entrance hall, where the staircase leads to the upper floors. To one side is the sitting room, a comfortable space with a bay window to the front. Across the hall, the kitchen/dining room provides space for a table alongside fitted units and work surfaces, with a feature fireplace with a stove. Beyond the kitchen is a utility room with additional facilities and a door to the rear garden, together with a ground-floor shower room.

On the first floor are two double bedrooms, one with fitted storage, a smaller room suited to a study or fourth bedroom, and a family bathroom with a bath and separate shower. The larger front bedroom enjoys a bay window, while the rear bedroom looks towards the garden and hillside. A further staircase leads to the spacious principal bedroom on the second floor, where the windows frame an attractive outlook towards the surrounding countryside.

Outside - A single off-street parking space sits to the front of the house, with steps leading up to the entrance. On-road parking is also available on Victoria Road, subject to availability and any local restrictions.

To the rear, the garden rises in terraces, bringing together a lawn, planted beds, gravelled areas and places to sit and enjoy the outlook over Dartmouth’s rooftops and the countryside and waterfront beyond. The different levels offer space for both gardening and outdoor dining.

The seller’s have noted a deeded, step-free route to the rear garden across the neighbouring property at No. 235, via its drive and connecting gates.
