Walnut Major is a delightful character cottage situated in the heart of the village and a stone throw away from the glorious Avon Estuary.
The property would make an ideal investment opportunity or bolt hole near the coast and glorious South Hams beaches. From the front entrance on Fore Street, a hallway gives access to the first floor, the shower room and master bedroom. On the first floor there is a further double bedroom, sitting room and a light and airy kitchen/dining room offering lovely views of the cottage garden. The garden is a wonderful space to sit and enjoy the afternoon sunshine with beautiful views of the Avon estuary from the top of the garden. The property further benefits from a garage with electric roller door.
Aveton Gifford lies on the western bank of the River Avon, deep in the South Hams in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is probably best known for its 15th Century bridge which was built to replace the ancient ford. There is a public house with a restaurant, church, nursery/primary school, village shop and it is on the bus route. The village also has a tennis club, children’s playground and a large green within walking distance. The Georgian town of Modbury with an interesting variety of shops is to the north and Kingsbridge which has a more comprehensive shopping centre is to the south. To the east lies the Avon River and Estuary which is renowned for its abundance of wild fowl. The River Avon is navigable downstream to Bantham and out to sea, tide permitting. The nearest sandy beaches are Bigbury on Sea, Bantham and Burgh Island, surrounded by outstanding scenery and cliff tops of the South Hams coastline, much of which is now owned by the National Trust. Also nearby are the sailing centres based at Salcombe and Newton Ferrers, as well as 18 hole golf courses at Bigbury and Thurlestone. Dartmoor National Park is several miles to the north and provides a backdrop to the area which must surely rank as one of the most beautiful in the country.
