LOCATION
Dartmouth is a beautiful waterside town and is celebrated for its rich maritime heritage, being home to the Britannia Royal Naval College. The town is one of the jewels in Devon’s crown, offering outstanding natural beauty, and a vibrant year-round community. Warfleet Creek is a stunning, sheltered cove with a public slipway. This scenic, wooded lane leads to the National Trust owned bluebell woods of Gallants Bower, Dartmouth Castle, St Petrox Church, the two beaches at Sugary Cove and Castle Cove and the South-West Coastal Path. The views on display are some of the best on offer encompassing the River Dart, Kingswear and the surrounding countryside. The town centre, which can be reached on foot in about 20 minutes, offers a wonderful and varied selection of shops, boutiques, galleries, pubs and restaurants, including The Seahorse, which was recently named as ‘Best restaurant outside of London’ by the Food and Travel Reader Awards 2025. Dartmouth hosts several yearly festivals, including the Dartmouth Royal Regatta, Food Festival, Music Festival and Galleries Week. Alongside the traditional bakers, butcher and grocer, there are two supermarkets and an M&S Food Hall. The town is well serviced with a new health and well-being centre, a cinema, a leisure centre and both indoor and outdoor swimming pools. The River Dart, which flows from Dartmoor, through Totnes and out to sea at Dartmouth, is always a hive of activity, and as a deep-water port, attracts boats from all over the world. Dartmouth lies within the South Hams and the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, an area famous for its stunning coastline with sandy beaches and hidden coves. The mainline train station at Totnes runs a regular service to London in just over 2.5 hours and the A38 (M5) is about 19 miles.

THE PROPERTY
Riverside is a contemporary, architect designed house which was completed in 2019. It occupies a sublime position on the banks of the River Dart and is perfectly positioned for admiring sunsets and entertaining on the full width waterside terrace. Gated steps descend from Castle Road, leading to an open porch and welcoming galleried, reception hall, with coat and boot storage. The lower ground floor comprises a stunning open plan living/ dining room with wall-to-wall glazed sliding doors providing access to the impressive full width, glazed balcony terrace, which measures nearly 60’ in length. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with a good range of units centred around an island, and fitted with two ovens, microwave, hob, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. The views from the terrace and all principal rooms are, of course, quite spectacular. Also on this floor are two double bedrooms, both with en suite bath/shower rooms and a third double bedroom, serviced by the family shower room. Stairs descend from the hallway to the lower level which is occupied by a large 26’ laundry/storage room and cloakroom. Access leads to outside storage, a covered landing platform and stone steps to the River Dart and running mooring.

Riverside benefits from a detached garage with parking in front, storage below and a spacious studio/office/bedroom 4 and cloakroom above with a large glazed apex window overlooking the water.
