Northford Road, Dartmouth

A charming cottage situated only moments from the centre of Dartmouth with south facing balcony and terrace. EPC band D.

SITUATION
Dartmouth is not your average sleepy coastal town. It is buzzing with culture, art, gastronomic offerings and a lively community spirit. Well known for its famous Royal Regatta and Royal Naval College, Dartmouth is steeped in history and its architecture is unique to the town. Dartmouth provides a good range of shops, restaurants and galleries and is surrounded by wonderful countryside whilst only a short drive from some of the most beautiful beaches in the area. The A38 Devon expressway is approximately 19 miles away, allowing speedy access to the cities of Exeter and Plymouth and the country beyond whilst main line rail links to London Paddington can be made in Totnes.

DESCRIPTION
8 Northford Road is a charming, semi-detached cottage built in 1868 conveniently located only moments from the town centre and River Dart. Being close to the town centre makes this a wonderful main home for those working nearby alternatively it would make an ideal second home due to being able to lock up and leave and the location which is perfect for exploring the surrounding coast and countryside. The property has recently undergone a program of refurbishment with a new kitchen being at the heart of the home. The kitchen/dining room has French doors opening to a private, enclosed terrace whilst the sitting room has access to a south facing balcony. On the first floor is a bedroom that will accommodate a double bed and a smartly finished ensuite shower room.

ACCOMMMODATION
The front door opens to an entrance hall with space for shoes and coats as well as an oak door opening to a cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin. The bright and airy sitting room features a wonderful, decorative fireplace and French doors opening to a balcony with views over the town. The sitting room could also be utilised as a guest bedroom with plenty of space for a sofa bed. An attractive staircase with recessed lighting lead down to the kitchen/dining room which features a range of beautiful, shaker style units above and below tiled surrounds. The kitchen offers an integrated electric fan oven with gas hob, washer/dryer, dishwasher and fridge. There is plenty of space for a good-sized dining table as well as French doors opening to the terrace which is perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining. The enclosed terrace is partially sheltered by the balcony above offering a private space to relax amongst potted plants set against whitewashed walls.

Leading from the sitting room is a staircase which rises to the first floor passing a large built in cupboard housing the recently installed gas fired boiler.
