Goveton, Kingsbridge

This substantial stone-built residence offers a blend of rural elegance and modern comfort. Featuring a characterful multi-storey design, it provides an idyllic retreat with convenient access to essential amenities.

This substantial stone-built residence occupies a peaceful position within the picturesque village of Goveton, combining timeless country elegance with beautifully proportioned accommodation arranged across three floors. Surrounded by immaculately maintained grounds and rolling countryside, the property offers an impressive sense of space and seclusion, complemented by a large double garage and generous parking offered with no chain. 

The ground floor is beautifully proportioned, with an expansive sitting room flooded with natural light from a large bay window, complete with elegant interior shutters and a charming window seat. The adjoining country-style kitchen and dining room is equally impressive, where a magnificent brick fireplace provides a striking backdrop to a cream-coloured modern gas Rayburn and 19th-century wood-burning stove — currently decorative, with the option to reinstate it for use should the chimney be cleared and lined. Two-tone grey and cream cabinetry is paired with a deep ceramic sink and traditional-style shutters, while large dark grey stone tiles complete the room, creating a sophisticated yet welcoming space that perfectly complements the character of the home.

Ascending the elegant staircase, the first floor reveals two beautifully proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom is a spacious dual-aspect retreat with its own shower and basin, while the second is equally impressive, with a raised freestanding claw-foot bathtub adding an unexpected touch of luxury and individuality. A separate WC conveniently serves this floor.

The second floor is particularly impressive, with two further bedrooms of remarkably generous and comparable proportions, dispelling any expectation of compromised top-floor accommodation. Full of character and natural light, both rooms offer exceptional flexibility, while a further well-appointed bathroom with shower and WC completes the floor.

Outside, the property is framed by beautifully maintained expanses of lawn, mature trees, established shrubs and colourful planting, creating a wonderfully private and tranquil setting against the backdrop of open countryside. The covered entrance porch, elegant columns and distinctive red front door further enhance the home's handsome country appearance.

A large double garage is a significant additional asset, providing excellent space for vehicles, storage or a workshop, alongside further communal parking for residents and visitors.

Perfectly positioned within the peaceful South Hams village of Goveton, the property offers the tranquillity of rural village life whilst remaining within easy reach of Kingsbridge and its excellent selection of shops, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities.
