The Ridge, Kingswear, Devon

The Ridge is a home that reveals itself gradually. From the road, its modest single-storey appearance gives little indication of the scale within. Step through the front door and the house unfolds over three floors, its clever arrangement making the most of light, outlook and the natural contours of its setting in the village of Kingswear.

The architectural character becomes apparent from the moment you enter. Large A-frame windows draw daylight deep into the principal living spaces, while carefully considered angles and openings create a strong connection with the landscape beyond. The Kitchen is a bright, practical room with a generous sense of space, well suited to everyday life. Beside it, the Dining Room has a more intimate quality, centred around a vaulted bay window that adds an interesting architectural feature, while framing views across the creek to the surrounding countryside.

Across the welcoming Entrance Hall, the Living Room takes its cue from the geometry of the Kitchen, with an A-frame window filling the room with natural light. Beyond the glass, the outlook extends towards the marina, creek and river, bringing the changing character of the water and surrounding landscape into the heart of the house. Large sliding doors open onto the Balcony, extending the living space outdoors and giving the views an even greater sense of scale.

The accommodation continues below on the middle floor, where the Principal Bedroom occupies an enviable position. A generous bay window provides a carefully framed view towards the creek and the surrounding countryside, while the room is complemented by a substantial Ensuite and Built-in Wardrobe. A Family Shower Room is positioned nearby, followed by a Second Bedroom with Patio Doors opening directly onto the Patio.

A further flight of stairs leads to the lower level, where two additional Bedrooms provide considerable flexibility. One is currently arranged as a Games Room, offering an informal space for entertaining, and there is also a useful Utility Room and another Shower Room on this floor. The arrangement lends itself equally well to family living, visiting guests or those seeking dedicated space for hobbies and recreation.

Outside, the Garden is notably level, with a broad lawn and a large partially covered Patio. Quiet and private, it provides a natural extension to the house and a relaxed setting for spending time outdoors. The property also benefits from a Garage and Parking for up to four cars, a valuable combination in a village setting.
