Fore Street, Shaldon

This stunning Georgian property is nestled in the heart of the popular coastal village of Shaldon. Character features are intertwined with stylish modern detailing throughout, as this home exudes timeless appeal. Flooded with natural light, the interiors have been thoughtfully considered, enhancing the property’s period charm.

The front porch, believed to be a later 20th century addition to the property, sits central to the aesthetic double fronted facade and houses the front door, which opens into the first of multiple reception rooms that offer space for relaxed family living and sophisticated entertaining. A beautifully appointed kitchen with contemporary fittings provides the ideal space for preparing meals, while the adjoining dining room offers an elegant setting for formal gatherings. Upstairs, the property features three double bedrooms, including the main bedroom that boasts an impressive en suite with bath, and separate contemporary shower room.

The garden opens up from the kitchen and is a serene sunny and sociable spot with covered seating areas, patio and lawn. Entrances to the downstairs WC and utility room are from the patio area but covered, ensuring dry access in all weather! A beautiful cobbled pathway winds down the garden to the double garage and gate that allows entry to the garden from the off street parking on the lane behind — extremely convenient when heading to the outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach!

The village website beautifully summarises the lifestyle that Shaldon offers: “an idyllic little fishing village of quaint thatched cottages, period houses, contemporary homes and narrow winding streets situated at the mouth of the Teign estuary on the edge of the English Riviera and Torbay. It lies adjacent to the older village of Ringmore and both enjoy a delightfully warm micro climate, sheltered from the sea by the Ness, the imposing red sandstone headland that has been a welcome landmark for centuries of sailors.”

Amenities within the village, many just a stone’s throw from the property, include a bakery, village shop, pharmacy and cafes.
