Exquisite Coastal Retreat in Maidencombe House:

Nestled within the distinguished enclave of Maidencombe House, this meticulously renovated apartment epitomizes the pinnacle of coastal living. Maidencombe House, an exclusive collection of luxury apartments, is discreetly situated just a stone's throw away from the idyllic hamlet of Maidencombe. Set between the coveted destinations of Torquay and Teignmouth along the South Devon coastline, this prestigious residence enjoys a unique backdrop of rolling countryside, farmland and blue azures, crafting an exceptional lifestyle for those with an appreciation for the finer things in life.

Unparalleled Coastal Living:

The southwest coastal path gracefully winds through Maidencombe, guiding you along breathtaking clifftops. Meander along several marked circular walks, embracing the sublime beauty of the coast and the neighboring countryside. Discover serenity at the Maidencombe beach, an intimate and sheltered cove nestled amidst the striking red sandstone cliffs. A charming beach café awaits your arrival, while in the heart of Maidencombe, the renowned Thatched Tavern Pub and the exquisite Orestone Manor Hotel and Restaurant beckon, promising exquisite dining experiences.

Unparalleled Renovation and Design:

Prepare to be wowed by the extensive transformation that this extraordinary apartment has undergone. Painstakingly renovated by its current owners, it is now a true masterpiece of interior design and craftsmanship. Located at the northern end of Maidencombe House, this apartment boasts captivating coastal vistas in two directions, with windows on both the side and rear elevations. Additionally, the front elevation offers a charming outlook over the picturesque surrounding countryside.

The renovation project was entrusted to the expertise of Ashgrove Kitchens, a revered Devon company renowned for their artisanal work in crafting kitchens, bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces since 1987. Their involvement ensured an unwavering commitment to quality, design, and aesthetic excellence throughout.

The transformation encompassed the removal of all artex ceilings, meticulous replastering of walls, installation of a new gas boiler, radiators, and a state-of-the-art hot water system. Every detail was meticulously curated, from the new kitchen and bathrooms to bespoke fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, replacement faceted glass/gold door handles, and a comprehensive redecoration. The inclusion of new Britannia uPVC windows further enhances the property's allure.

A Dream Turned Opportunity:

One might wonder why the owners undertook such an extensive renovation, only to now seek new custodianship. Originally, they envisioned this property as their cherished home for years to come. However, life's ever-changing course led them to a new path, offering you the exceptional opportunity to call this magnificent apartment with its awe-inspiring coastal vistas your own.

Luxurious Interiors and Exceptional Craftsmanship:

The moment you step into the apartment, the quality of craftsmanship is evident. Karndean wood-effect flooring flows seamlessly from the entrance hallway through to the kitchen, where bespoke floating oak display shelves add a touch of elegance.

The heart of this apartment is undoubtedly the bespoke Ashgrove kitchen. Crafted in solid wood and finished in a custom one-of-a-kind blue with contrasting white quartz worktops and satin gold knobs and fittings, it is a masterpiece of design and functionality. Illuminated display cabinets, concealed under-unit and floor lighting, and a comprehensive range of integrated Neff appliances elevate this space to a chef's dream. Overlooking the sink windows frame picturesque rural views to the front, and a dining table area provides captivating coastal vistas extending to Teignmouth, Exmouth, and the mesmerizing Jurassic coast.


Convenience Meets Elegance:

A utility room seamlessly complements the kitchen, featuring matching units and bespoke cupboards, and offering space for washing and drying machines. The new boiler and hot water tank, accompanied by an airing cupboard with hanging space, ensure uninterrupted comfort.

The spacious sitting room is graced with 100% English wool carpets, and its flexible layout options provide the perfect setting for your preferences. Dual aspects, with a bay window on one side and a floor-to-ceiling rounded bay window on the other, capture breathtaking coastal and sea views, as well as the beauty of the surrounding area, grounds, and pool. A dedicated media storage area and access to the balcony enhance the allure of this exceptional space.


Your Sanctuary of Rest and Relaxation:

The main bedroom opens to the balcony through a sliding glass door, granting you access to the mesmerizing views. Custom-made Ashgrove wardrobes, mirroring the apartment's distinctive blue, offer ample storage space. The generous en suite bathroom continues the theme, featuring a matching blue vanity unit with a white quartz top, a shower over the tapless bath, and Grohe chrome fittings. Unique and effective tile patterns and shapes add a touch of artistry to this private retreat.

The second bedroom, cleverly designed, provides versatility as a study or guest room with an innovative convertible study bed from the aptly named Study Bed Company. Boasting full-height bookcases, a top box, and a matching chest of drawers, this room seamlessly transforms from a workspace into a haven for guests. The floor-to-ceiling window with a Juliet balcony offers views of the front and surrounding countryside.

Elegance Meets Functionality:

The opulent bathroom echoes the style of the en suite, with matching tiles and a vanity unit featuring a washbasin and a floating W/C. A double shower cubicle with a glass screen, all adorned with Grohe fittings, ensures that every moment spent here is a lavish indulgence.
