Property description

Occupying a wonderful location just a short drive from the town of Teignmouth, its golf club and the A380, this thoroughly lovely 2 bedroom apartment is as spacious as it is impressive. In addition to large rooms, there are some particularly impressive features, such as the well-specified kitchen and the fabulous bathroom with roll-top bath. All of the principal rooms also enjoy exceptional country, sea or estuary views. The apartment has double glazing gas fired central heating (again beautifully executed with Victorian style radiators), a garage and private parking. Perfect for owner occupier or for a coastal second home.

The location ...
Holcombe Down House sits on the very edge of the coastal town of Teignmouth, over which it enjoys splendid sea and estuary views. The town itself offers a wealth of amenities and services, including schooling, a supermarket and a well respected golf club. It is particularly accessible, being only a modest drive from the M5/A380 and having a main line train station, making it a perfect home or a convenient holiday property.

The situation ...
The property itself is located on the first floor of Holcombe Down House, a fine period home that was converted into 6 luxury apartments circa 2008. The house is believed to once have been home to actress Vivien Leigh, the Hollywood legend who starred as Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With The Wind. Perhaps some part of Holcombe Down helped inspire the young actress; the setting and the views are certainly exceptional? The house sits in countryside on the edge of the town (approximate 1 mile from the town centre).

The property ...
Apartment three occupies a good proportion of the first floor of the original house. Its location within the building means that all of the principle rooms enjoy beautiful outlooks, whether they be over country, sea or estuary. Already converted to a high standard by a local developer in 2008, the current owners have further improved the property, with quality additions such as bamboo flooring in the hallway and lounge. The apartment is particularly spacious, with welcoming entrance hall, a generous sitting room (with feature living flame fire) and a stylish and well appointed kitchen diner with integrated appliances and granite work surfaces. There are two bedrooms, both with built in wardrobes, the master also having a smart en suite shower room and small balcony. Unusually (and rather fantastically), the apartment benefits from a cavernous bathroom with impressive roll-top bath and separate shower. It also boasts plenty of storage cupboards (a trivial point, but wonderfully useful in practice!), double glazing and gas fired central heating, along with some lovely finishing touches like the reproduction Victorian style radiators and an impressive chandelier in the hallway. Outside, there is a garage with electric door, along with two private parking spaces and shared visitor's parking. Apartment three really as an exceptional property and well worth taking the time to view.Holcombe Down House LtdThe new leaseholder will become a shareholder in the freehold of the whole building. There is a service charge payable for apartment three of approximately £1200, which covers exterior maintenance of the building and grounds, buildings insurance, plus private water and sewerage which, we feel, make it excellent value for money. We believe the lease on apartment three extends to 200 years from 2008.
