About this property
Blackstone Cottage is a superb dog-friendly detached property, at the upper end of Devon Road, within walking distance of Salcombe's shops, quayside and restaurants. The town’s beautiful beach of North Sands is just a 10-minute walk via Sandhills Road, and the South West Coast Path is also easily accessible, meaning this property is exceptionally well located for exploring! Highlights of the property include a beautifully fitted kitchen, large sitting/dining area and delightful south-facing lounge with a large window and French doors leading out to the garden. On the upper 'studio' level are two double bedrooms built into the roof space, both with double beds, one with a door opening out to a small balcony with sea views.
The third bedroom is on the lower, garden level and has twin beds. The property also has a fully tiled bathroom on the upper level, and a shower room at the garden level. In addition, there is also a cloakroom and a utility room. Perhaps most attractive to dog owners, outside there is a lovely garden with lawn, and a south-facing sun terrace with table, chairs, and a barbecue. There are also parking spaces for two cars – an added bonus in this popular sailing town! Equally suited to families or couples, the property is a lovely base for those looking to enjoy both Salcombe’s beaches and busy Fore Street.
Salcombe is a popular destination for walkers and families looking for a holiday by the sea and was once a major port. There are two pretty beaches within a short distance, North Sands and South Sands and further on is the National Trust property Overbeck’s where you can wander through the subtropical gardens. You can also take the small ferry across the estuary to the beaches of East Portlemouth, and a walk to Gara Rock. Why not have a more adventurous day and try out the watersports available on the estuary including sailing, kayaking or a more leisurely boat trip? Whilst staying in Salcombe you must take advantage of the locally sourced seafood which is served in many of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and delicatessens. The southern tip of Devon provides some spectacular scenery and picturesque vistas with a number of sandy beaches, lovely villages with thatched cottages and some fantastic opportunities for walking, including the South West Coast path.
