About this property
Beautifully Renovated & Extended Victorian Cottage
Open-Plan Kitchen & Dining Space
Uninterrupted Views Over Waterhead Creek
Level Access & Easy On Street Parking Very Nearby
Spacious & Bright Principal Bedroom With En-Suite Bathroom
Private Rear Roof Terrace
Tucked away by the Creek in the sought-after village of Kingswear, this charming Victorian Cottage has been thoughtfully renovated and extended to create a wonderfully light, comfortable and characterful coastal home. With views towards the water, a sunny front Courtyard Garden and a lovely balance of original character and contemporary design, it is a house that feels both immediately welcoming and beautifully connected to its surroundings.
From the moment you arrive, there is a sense of calm and connection with the outdoors. Bifold doors at the Entrance open onto a pretty Courtyard, with lovely views across the surrounding greenery and towards the water, a perfect spot to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun.
Inside, the bright Sitting Room is warm and inviting, with a feature fireplace at its heart and plenty of space for generous, comfortable seating. From here, the Cottage flows naturally into the recently extended Kitchen-Dining Room, designed for relaxed cooking, long lunches and evenings with friends. Fresh, bright cabinetry is paired with beautiful bespoke wooden worktops, while there is ample room for a large dining table. A feature brick fireplace adds character, cleverly incorporating a stylish wine rack.
On the first floor are two inviting double Bedrooms. The spacious front Bedroom has built-in Storage and lovely views towards the water, while the rear Bedroom has its own characterful fireplace and doors opening directly onto a private Rooftop Terrace. With space for a table and chairs, this is a lovely little retreat for morning coffee or an evening drink. A recently refurbished contemporary Shower Room completes this floor.
Up on the second floor, the Principal Bedroom feels wonderfully private and peaceful, occupying the entire upper level of the Cottage. West-facing skylights flood the room with natural light, creating a wonderfully airy atmosphere and drawing attention to the changing light across the sky throughout the day. Beneath the skylights is a lovely seating area, providing the perfect little corner in which to curl up with a book, take a quiet moment or simply enjoy the sense of space. The Bedroom itself is generous in size, with plenty of room to relax, while a spacious En-Suite Bathroom adds a feeling of comfort and retreat.
Throughout, the Cottage strikes a thoughtful balance between its Victorian origins and the way we want to live today. Original character and period details sit comfortably alongside fresh finishes, bespoke touches and beautifully considered spaces. The recent extension has added a wonderful sense of scale, while the various Terraces and waterside outlooks ensure that the surrounding landscape is always close at hand.
With its position beside the water and park, the village of Kingswear is a wonderful base to explore the wider beauty of the South Devon coast. Whether used as a permanent home, a peaceful escape by the water or a place to gather with friends and family, 1 Waterhead Terrace is one to see.
