Description

Beautiful! We Often Say It, But This Property Truly Has A Superb Blend Of Contemporary Styling Whilst Retaining Insightful And Quirky Period Features. With Terraced Patio And Parking.

The Lakes is a delightful period stone Cottage in the heart of Kingswear village. It has been beautifully and thoughtfully updated to include all the mod cons required to ensure a truly relaxing escape by the water.

The Open-Plan style ground floor includes a sleek fitted Kitchen open to the sweet Dining Area with a cosy wood-burner in its original fireplace....

The Open-Plan style ground floor includes a sleek fitted Kitchen open to the sweet Dining Area with a cosy wood-burner in its original fireplace. A second wood-burner is the focal point of the characterful Living Room showcased by the delightful exposed stone wall. Modern tiled flooring with underfloor heating is a stylish update to this charming space.

The cosy Cottage feel has been retained on the first floor with many period features including original cupboards and fireplaces yet the stylish décor and refurbishment has brought the house into the modern world with all the creature comforts we expect such as contemporary programmable electric panel heaters and a superb modern Family Bathroom.

The three Bedrooms on this floor are all good doubles with a window seat here, or panelling there to invite you into lounge and relax in the sumptuous surroundings.

Climb the stairs to the second floor where a superb fourth Bedroom suite awaits. Currently arranged as a second Living Room to allow everyone to enjoy the spectacular views from this elevated position. Curl up and relax in this joyful den and watch life on the river.

And if you really must work, there is a serarate light-filled Study Area - after a long day ‘at the office’ why not treat your self to a soak in the luxurious freestanding bath on this level, before heading out onto the Terrace for dinner and drinks with friends and family as the sun is going down.

The Lakes is a place to relax and unwind from the everyday – a home away from home; ideal as a base, permanent or otherwise, to enjoy all the area has to offer – whether the beauty of the South Hams countryside, its coastal walks, or the wonderful inns and restaurants to sample the local produce – all within easy reach.
