Seabreeze Cottage, Torcross

Seabreeze Cottage

Escape To The Sound Of The Sea

There is a reason that relaxation apps use the sound of waves gently lapping against a shale shore, as there is no other sound that instantly shifts our mood

This is the sound that we hear as we arrive at Seabreeze Cottage.

This glorious 400-year-old thatched cottage is in the idyllic position on the heavenly slice of land between Slapton Ley and Torcross sands, with sea views as far as the eye can see and the smell of salty fresh air.

There can truly be no greater escape from everyday life

The sweetest driftwood gate leads us into the sun-drenched patio and to a handy porch for all weather - an ideal drop off point for buckets and spades

Light Filled Rooms

The Living Room has extraordinary light from the large triple-aspect windows framing glorious views over Start Bay

This stunning room, unusually spacious for its era is full of character and charm.

Real wood flooring accentuates the beautiful painted ribbed ceiling cleverly enhancing the sense of space whilst retaining the character of the room.

A grand stone fireplace prepared for a multi-fuel burner grabs our attention as we walk across the room and through to the rear of the property

Delightful Dining

An ever-so charming Dining Room with not one, but two homely fireplaces - one featuring an old bread oven - is flooded with light from the large bay windows and glazed rear door

This ample space has plenty of room for all of the family

The adjoining Kitchen is fitted with modern grey units and white and oak worktops. A useful Breakfast Bar separates the two spaces.

Peaceful Nights

Vying for Principal Bedroom status are Bedrooms 1 & 2 Both rooms are cosy sanctuaries with ample space for a super-kingsize bed and are bursting to the seams with characterful features

Bedroom 2 benefits from a large En-Suite complete with Bath, whilst Bedroom 1 pips it to the post with it's quirky pebble-floor Shower Room and fabulous partially exposed stone fireplace.

There can surely be no better way to start your day than watching the daybreak over Start Bay?

Both bedrooms share the same view from their wonderful window seats, This heavenly vista can be relied upon to provide the most sensational sunrises throughout the year

Versatile Living

Equally as pretty, Bedrooms 3 and 4 are accessed by a second staircase. Bedroom 3 is a great size with built-in storage and a cosy bay window with views out of the side towards the beach It also has a good sized En-Suite Shower Room A connecting door leads us to Bedroom 4 - another great size and bursting with charming features

With two staircases providing access to the two sets of Bedrooms, Seabreeze Cottage has great potential for multi-generational living The third and fourth Bedrooms lend themselves particularly well to a Living Room and Bedroom with own Bathroom With the Utility Room at the foot of these stairs, a Kitchen would be an easy conversion. The layout of this house even allows for separate entrances.

You will be the envy of green-eyed passers-by as you enjoy breakfast on the pretty Patio following your dip, or kicking back with an evening apéritif after a hard day of Paddle-Boarding!
