One of the finest waterside properties in the South West
Tenure: Freehold
Situation: Salcombe is a beautiful estuary town situated in South Devon, in the South Hams, renowned for its productive red soil and unspoilt rolling countryside. South Devon has a number of protected estuaries, but few are as beautiful or as sought after as the Salcombe Estuary, where Salcombe nestles at its mouth on the west bank. Snapes Manor lies opposite the town of Salcombe on the estuary's eastern bank, off Batson Creek, in a wonderfully secluded and sheltered south facing position with long water frontage, fittingly classed as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and surrounded by National Trust land, yet within an easy walking distance of the town centre or just minutes by boat from the property's private stone landing. Salcombe is a thriving town with a worldwide reputation for its yachting and social activities. The main shopping street offers a variety of shops, restaurants, banks, quays, slipways, hotels and a yacht club. The estuary provides beautiful sandy beaches and sheltered anchorages which make it a particularly special area for dingy sailing and swimming. Communications to the area are good with access to the motorway network via the A38 dual carriageway linking with the M5 at Exeter. There are mainline rail connections to London, the Midlands and the North from Totnes and there are expanding airports at both Plymouth and Exeter - home to Flybe airline.

Snapes Manor is truly a world class marine property jewel.
The narrow, winding lane that leads up to the manor makes for a wonderful entrance to this secluded, waterside property and the pretty Georgian courtyard. The elevated main house, cottage and outbuildings all lie within reasonably close proximity to one another, although the jaw dropping vista over the garden to the bay and beyond is enjoyed by the main house alone and is what makes Snapes Manor so exceptional. A handsome Grade II* listed property, this imposing manor house has origins that can be traced as far back as the 12th century. The larger east wing is a later edition, thought to have been built around 1784 and bestows classic Georgian poise and balance.
Internally Snapes Manor offers well proportioned rooms, ideal for family living or lavish entertaining alike. The outstanding view is a very important feature in almost every room in the house and on the ground floor there are lots of deep, wide window seats from which to enjoy it.
Accommodation: .
