Description

Higher Collaton Cottage is a place where one can enjoy the tranquil seclusion without being too isolated. The village amenities of Malborough are close by and include a convenience store, pubs, church, primary school and village hall.

Just a 10 minutes’ drive away is Salcombe which lies beside one of the most beautiful estuaries in Devon, with miles of sheltered water, perfect for sailing and boating. There are golden beaches on either side of the estuary and spectacular cliff walks over National Trust headlands leading to scattered coves. Within the town there is a good range of pubs, restaurants and select shops, together with waterfront quays and mooring pontoons.

Kingsbridge, which is 4 miles away, offers extensive shopping facilities including a health centre, small hospital and sports centre.

The current owners comprehensively renovated both Higher Collaton Cottage and Colas Tonne with meticulous thought and consideration enhancing the wealth of original period features.

Higher Collaton Cottage has a charming thatched porch with stable door opening into the sitting room. This spacious room has a wood burning stove, exposed ceiling beams and window seats; at one end is a useful study area with stable door to the pretty front garden. The handmade kitchen is beautifully fitted and equipped and opens into the bright and airy dining room with vaulted ceiling and French doors to the garden. On the first floor are three bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room and the other two are served by family bathroom.

The detached annex, Colas Tonne, is more contemporary with reverse level accommodation. The open plan kitchen dining living room has a vaulted ceiling and cathedral window with French doors to a spacious paved sun terrace. On the ground floor are two en-suite bedrooms.

The pretty cottage gardens are well stocked and an absolute delight. There are numerous places to sit and enjoy sun throughout the day and the level lawned garden at the rear with summerhouse adjoins unspoilt farmland. On the opposite side of the lane is a paddock and walled garden.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a historic home, not far from the coast, with an income stream if desired.

About Harriet George, Kingsbridge

1 Kings Market, 74 Fore Street, Kingsbridge TQ7 1PR

I decided to establish Harriet George Properties after over 20 years experience in the industry; my goal being to provide a more personal approach to buying or selling a home.

With experience in both the sales and letting markets, I am truly passionate about what I do. My goal is to exceed expectations and deliver the highest level of customer service.

The last 18 years of my career have been spent in Salcombe where I gained a reputation of consistently achieving precedent prices for clients. Realising the best price for property in this unique South Hams market requires both deep local knowledge and the highest technical expertise. My experience and strategies are designed to ensure that sellers make the most from their home. I have a reputation for getting great results.

My unrivalled local knowledge means I'm exceptionally well placed to understand a buyer's requirements and as a result I have a proven track record of acquiring and selling many properties discreetly off the market.

My business is built on personal recommendations and my aim is to provide a personal bespoke service. Whether buying or selling I will handle the transaction from start to finish; you can trust in me that I'll get the deal done.
