1 Sunnydale, Kingsbridge, TQ7 2EJ

An exciting opportunity to purchase a beachfront property in a secluded location in the highly sought after village of Beesands.

The house has a superb kitchen and separate sitting room with two double bedrooms on the first floor and two additional loft rooms on the second floor.

The large garden adjoins the beach providing direct access into the sea.

Situation The property sits in a private position to the east of the village of Beesands, within the South Hams Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Once a thriving fishing community, Beesands retains much of its traditional character, with former fishermen’s cottages straggling along the lane beside a mile-long shingle beach.

Today, leisure fishing from the beach is a familiar sight, and the village also enjoys a freshwater lake and bird sanctuary, all set amid rolling countryside on the South West Coast Path.

The popular Cricket Inn offers locally produced food and a welcoming atmosphere, with Britannia at the Beach renowned for its seafood.

The nearby market town of Kingsbridge provides an excellent selection of shops and restaurants, as does the historic naval town of Dartmouth.

Description Just 200 yards from the water’s edge and moments from the South West Coast Path, 1 Sunnydale has been extensively renovated by the current owners, including a new heating system, rewiring, plumbing, kitchen and decoration.

A particular advantage-and part of the property’s charm-is its peaceful setting at the far end of the beach, reached via a track that passes the top of the shoreline.

Unlike many beachfront homes, this location remains notably quiet even at the height of the holiday season.

Accommodation Arranged over three floors, the accommodation on the ground floor comprises a generous sitting room with dual-aspect windows, a feature open fireplace, built-in storage cupboard and French doors opening to the patio and garden to the East.

The modern fitted kitchen/dining room enjoys abundant natural light and includes integrated appliances and a superb stone open fireplace.

The first floor provides two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate WC.

The principal bedroom, positioned to the front, benefits from exceptional panoramic sea views towards the headland, Widdicombe Ley and Start Point Lighthouse, together with a private WC.

The second double bedroom also enjoys views over the sea and Widdicombe Ley. The family bathroom comprises a bath with shower over and glass screen, vanity hand basin, heated towel rail and WC.

On the second floor there are two further attic rooms, each with Velux windows and built-in storage. The current owners use these as extra bedrooms.

Additional eaves storage is accessed from the second-floor landing.

Gardens And Grounds To the front, a generous lawned garden captures sun and enjoys far-reaching views across the beach to the sea beyond.

A patio, accessed from the sitting room or via a side gate from the track, provides an ideal space for al fresco dining in the summer months.

There is an additional seating area beyond the garden overlooking the beach, perfect for the evening sun.

To the side of the property is a heated outdoor shower, perfect after a swim or a walk on the shore. Parking is available.

Outbuilding The detached double garage is larger than most and well suited to storing boats and watersports equipment.

It is connected to all services and offers significant potential for additional accommodation or alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
