Property Details

Perched on the hillside of Kingswear, overlooking Dartmouth opposite and the River Dart below, is this stunning property set over three floors and enjoying picturesque views. Perfectly suited for a family looking for an inviting base to return to after exploring this beautiful area of South Devon, Moorings' interior is stylish and contemporary, bursting with high quality fittings and elegance. Come in through the front door and into the mosaic tiled porch to hang up your coats before heading downstairs to the lower-ground-floor where you'll find the wonderfully presented sitting room decorated in blue and grey hues in-keeping with the nautical theme. Here you'll enjoy settling into one of the sofas or armchairs at the end of the day, and either putting a film on the Smart TV or getting stuck into a book. Next door the kitchen/dining room provides a social hub, with a large island with a breakfast bar perfect for perching at with a glass of wine as you oversee the cooking, before gathering everyone around the dining table to enjoy a delicious meal, made even more enchanting thanks to the glorious backdrop of the harbour views out of the floor-to-ceiling sliding doors. Whether it's a crisp winter day or a warm summer afternoon, you will want to sit out on the balcony as much as possible, and relish in the natural beauty of the countryside and the quaint waterside town vista. Travel up the stairs onto the entry level ground floor and discover three bedrooms, each enjoying large windows with that spectacular view and offering tranquil sleeping spots with lovely furnishings, including a king-size, a twin and a children's bunk room, as well as a shower room being on this floor too. Head upstairs again past the feature painted stone wall which adds rustic charm to this modern masterpiece, and come to the first-floor where you will find the master bedroom holding a king-size bed and benefiting from beautiful furnishings offering ample storage. When you wake in the morning open up the French doors out to the balcony to begin your day with the magnificent views over the Kingswear Marina and Dartmouth, before stepping into the sparkling en-suite shower room to freshen up. Begin your exploration of the area by hopping on a ferry to Dartmouth where historical buildings, quaint streets and exceptional local produce can be found served in the many restaurants and pubs. A whole host of attractions awaits, explore Dartmouth Castle, or visit Agatha Christie's Holiday Home at Greenway, or take the kids to Woodlands Theme Park for endless fun. Moorings is a superb property and with such spectacular views from your doorstep you'll have to drag yourself away.

Kingswear

Kingswear is a charming colourful character village that has beautiful views over the River Dart. With its brightly coloured houses dotted on the steep northern bank of the River Dart, it is no wonder that artists from all over the world keep returning to capture the beauty and the architectural charm of this village. Take the ferry from here across to Dartmouth and then look back to take in the breathtaking view of Kingswear. Take the Steam Train from Kingswear to Paignton whilst soaking up the river and country views. There is a special Santa Steam train journey every December. Stop off at Greenway Holt and walk to the Greenway Estate and explore Agatha Christie's former home. Take the only coal-fired paddle steamer built in 1924, from Dartmouth. There are a range of National Trust walks including the Dart Valley Trail which has some of the finest views in this part of the world. For those who enjoy a challenge, then there is a challenging trek from Kingswear to Brixham which is 11 miles each way, there is a bus at Brixham if you don't want to endure to journey back! Kingswear has 2 pubs and a village store, and a cafe. The Steam Packet Inn even offers eat-in or take-away.
