Town house for sale in Clarence Hill, Dartmouth TQ6

Festooned with blue English Heritage plaques, Clarence Hill - named after the Duke of Clarence (later William IV) following a visit in 1828 - has long been a popular street where distinguished key figures in Dartmouth's rich history lived. This quaint picturesque street with its colourful townhouses is bursting with character.

One such characterful home is number 10. We enter via the period front door. A glance through the second fully glazed door lets us know that this home is far from the usual townhouse.

As we drift into a sensational fully open-plan space housing the Kitchen / Dining / Living room, long gone are the parlour and scullery of yesteryear, this wonderful house has been beautifully renovated for contemporary living. Toward the front, the clever positioning of the current owner’s furniture creates a cosy living space, the kitchen occupies the centre of the room. Cream shaker cabinetry makes the absolute most of the high ceilings. Worktops emit a subtle sparkle as they catch the light provided by the sensational roof lights above the dining room.

Large sliding doors open out onto a private courtyard, allowing even more light to flood into the dining area, which is fully open to the kitchen and living area - making the whole ground floor a wonderfully sociable space.

Off the courtyard, an ever-so-useful outdoor storage room provides a handy home for boating paraphernalia plus an additional fridge freezer.

Wind back through the ground floor and climb the stairs. Midway, a fully glazed door not only allows light to flood into the hallway area downstairs but also allows access to a surprisingly sunny, elevated rear courtyard.

Characterful stone walls enclose this pleasantly private space - a fabulous spot to enjoy a meal with friends and tell tales long into the evening. A great vantage point to view the charming slate-hung rear of this home too.

A few more steps lead up to the first of three spacious bedrooms. Two large sash windows dressed with smart plantation shutters allow light to flood into this generous room. A wall of fully fitted modern wardrobes provides bountiful storage. Next door we find a decadently large family bathroom housing a walk-in shower as well as a glorious corner bath.

Ascend the fabulously light-filled staircase to the second floor, to our right we find Bedroom 2, a pretty double room with views out over the terrace. On the landing there is room for further storage or it makes an excellent bright spot for a workspace.

Ahead we find Bedroom 3, another generous and wonderfully light bedroom, this time with built-in wardrobes and a surprise modern shower room ensuite. High ceilings add to the sense of space in this calming sanctuary.
