About
Forming part of an elegant Georgian residence, this most attractive and generously proportioned apartment enjoys a wonderful southerly aspect with far-reaching views across the town and out to sea. Sympathetically converted in the early 2000s into a small collection of just four substantial apartments, the property combines period character with modern convenience, all set within delightful private grounds. A comprehensive refurbishment of the exterior of the building and internal common areas was recently completed.
Approach
The approach is immediately impressive, with double doors opening into a refined communal hallway rich in period detail, including deep skirting boards, ornate cornicing and ceiling roses, complemented by chandeliers and a sweeping wooden staircase rising to the first floor. Once inside, the apartment continues to impress with a welcoming entrance hall offering a sense of space and practicality.
Drawing Room
A particular highlight is the magnificent drawing room, an exceptionally light and expansive space designed to take full advantage of its enviable position. Double doors open onto a south-facing balcony, perfectly framing the stunning sea views, while a wide bay window and additional windows provide further outlooks towards Salcombe Hill. The room is beautifully finished with decorative cornicing, ceiling roses and an elegant fireplace with marble insert, creating a superb setting for both relaxation and entertaining.
Kitchen/Breakfast Room
The kitchen/breakfast room is equally well appointed, fitted with a comprehensive range of modern units complemented by polished granite work surfaces and integrated appliances. A pleasant outlook over the gardens towards Salcombe Hill enhances the space, making it ideal for everyday living.
Bedrooms
There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both enjoying attractive views across the gardens. The principal bedroom benefits from a spacious en suite shower room, fitted with a contemporary suite, while the second bedroom is served by a stylish main bathroom with shower over the bath.
Outside
Externally, the property is set within beautifully maintained communal grounds, with sweeping lawns, gravel pathways and well-stocked beds providing a peaceful and private environment. A communal driveway leads to a garage block, where the apartment benefits from its own garage with an electric operated door, along with additional parking to the front and further visitor spaces. A convenient pedestrian access provides a pleasant and direct route towards the town centre.
Summary
Overall, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a refined and spacious home within a distinguished period building, offering an exceptional blend of character, comfort and captivating views.
