5 bedroom detached house for sale

Perched above North Sands, this stylish Edwardian home is minutes from the beach.

Asman blends Edwardian period features with modern interiors to create a special family home by the sea. Overlooking Salcombe’s ever-popular North Sands beach, its rural and sea views spill into a home that is flooded with natural light and character.

Asman sets the bar high with a name meaning ‘highest heaven’ and the property on prestigious Sandhills Road lives up to expectation. The lobby leads into a grand entrance hallway with handsome feature staircase to the floor above, while a dedicated cloakroom lends space for post-walk muddy boots and rain macs.
Along the hallway is a gloriously bright and spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room. South facing, it enjoys sunlight throughout the day and delivers beautiful views across the gardens and into the North Sands Valley. A window seat serves as the perfect place to see in the morning with a coffee and to wait for dinner with a glass of wine. The kitchen itself is particularly well designed to make the most of the space and views, well-equipped and with a central island and breakfast bar. In the dining area, space for a large dining table and chairs makes hosting a delight. An outside lounge and barbecue area leading off the kitchen makes for the perfect spot to catch the sun or entertain into the night.

The sitting room again boasts south facing windows that fill it with natural light and frame the exceptional views, while a wood burning stove promises cosy evenings after long wintery walks. Climbing the staircase takes you to a first-floor landing, from where four bedrooms and three bathroom/shower rooms extend. The master bedroom is reminiscent of a boutique hotel suite, its sliding doors leading to a south facing balcony with views across the North Sands Valley. Off this impressive bedroom space is an ensuite bathroom crowned by an ornate cast iron vintage bath.

There are two more double bedrooms to the first floor, one with ensuite shower room and the other with spectacular views over the valley. A twin bedroom and separate shower room complete the lineup. A large space with gabled roof and Velux windows sits on the second floor; while currently used as a bedroom with ensuite bathroom, it could also become an undisturbed office space. In addition to the three main floors, a lower ground floor room is currently used as a cellar.

It enjoys sunlight throughout the day and delivers beautiful views across the gardens and into the North Sands Valley.

As the home of delightful ‘Salcombe Spaniels’ duo Hebe and Purdey, Asman’s gardens are designed with pups in mind and plenty of room to roam. Gated access at the bottom of the garden leads along Sandhills Road and to North Sands beach in minutes. The beach is dog friendly all year round!

Several sun terraces are dotted around Asman, enjoying the sun all day and into the evening too. A large double garage sits to the side of the property, providing a home for all of the water sports equipment that so often comes with a life by the sea, while boat storage and ample parking for several vehicles also features.

Sandhills Road is one of the most coveted addresses in Devon. A pretty fifteen-minute walk along Cliff Road takes you into the heart of Salcombe, with its pastel harbourfront and host of boutique shops, fantastic restaurants and coffee stops. Salcombe is the sailing heart of the South Hams and Asman’s position in the town places it perfectly to take full advantage of all the town offers.

As this property is holiday let there may be bookings that will need to be honoured and we can put any interested party in touch with the letting agent concerned.
