A family bathroom serves these rooms, while a useful multi-function room provides flexibility for use as a study, gym, or occasional guest space. Throughout the house, oak flooring, triple-glazed aluminium windows, and underfloor heating reflect the quality of finish, while the thoughtful layout ensures that light, views, and connection to the outdoors are at the heart of the design. Approached via a smart tarmacked driveway, the property offers parking for several vehicles, along with an EV charging point. Landscaped borders soften the approach, while to the rear a private, level garden is designed for ease of maintenance. From the terraces, the outlook across Start Bay and the Devon coastline is simply breathtaking. Life in Stoke Fleming is defined by the coast. The village overlooks Start Bay, with Blackpool Sands just over a mile away, one of Devon’s most beautiful beaches, where golden shingle meets clear waters. From morning swims and paddle boarding to long days spent on the sand, it is the perfect setting for a relaxed coastal lifestyle. The South West Coast Path runs directly through the village, opening up miles of spectacular walks towards Dartmouth in one direction and Start Point Lighthouse in the other.
