A beautifully presented cottage in the popular hamlet of Capton
Description
The Forge is a fabulous, charming cottage which has been lovingly restored by the current owners who have been careful to maintain many of the period features. Arranged over two floors, the accommodation is wonderfully light with the large stable door leading into a lovely, open plan living / dining area.
Exposed stonework, a parquet floor and exposed beams add to the wonderful character while the large wood burning stove adds to the cosy feel.
Beyond this, the well-equipped kitchen offers a range of base units as well as a double Belfast sink, double oven and space for a fridge/freezer. A bespoke iron and wooden open staircase rises to the first floor landing which leads to the lovely principal bedroom which benefits from a good level of storage and Velux windows in the vaulted ceiling which flood the room with natural light. There is an additional double bedroom on the first floor as well as a lovely family bathroom with freestanding roll-top bath.
Gardens and Grounds
The charming, private garden is accessed through a gate just across the lane from the property. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with a section of raised plant beds. There is a wood store and a small garden house as well as off-street parking for one vehicle.
Location
The rural hamlet of Capton is nestled in the heart of the rolling South Hams' countryside about 2 miles from Dittisham, one of the most attractive and unspoilt villages in the South Hams.
Sitting on the west bank of the River Dart, the village has a thriving community with a church, a post office / general store, two pubs, a waterside cafe, a popular sailing club and The Ham, a wonderful waterside recreational park in the heart of the village.
The South Hams' golden beaches are also close by with the award winning beach at Blackpool Sands within about 5 miles as well as many beautiful coastal walks and Dartmouth Golf and Country Club is about 4 miles distant. Dartmouth, which is accessible by both boat and road (4 miles), is home to the Britannia Royal Naval College and offers a fabulous and eclectic mix of shops, galleries, pubs and restaurants. Dartmouth also offers a cinema, leisure centre and indoor swimming pool. Totnes (7 miles), which offers a mainline rail link to London, also provides a comprehensive range of facilities and schooling. Communications are excellent with the A38 Devon Expressway about 12 miles to the north which in turn leads to the M5 at Exeter.
Square Footage: 831 sq ft
Directions
From Dartmouth, take the A1322 towards Totnes. Upon reaching the Sportmans Arms, turn right signposted Dittisham and Capton. After approximately ¾ of a mile, turn left signposted to Capton. Follow the lane into the village and The Forge will be seen on your left hand side.
