Description

For sale for the first time in over 100 years, Moult Farm has been in the same family for generations and now offers an exciting opportunity for the new owners. Located just 5 metres from North Sands with frontline views over the bay many hours can be spent watching the world go by.

With an interesting history, the main house has always been a dwelling with the round, Grade II listed east wing formally used as a tea room. Inside this intriguing home, the spacious entrance hall is perfect for welcoming guests with a delightful sitting room to the right. Enjoying a feature stone fireplace, fine sitting room benefits from generous proportions and a pretty bay window capturing the views over North Sands. To the left of the entrance hall is the kitchen/dining room again with a delightful bay window and window seat that is perfectly placed to enjoy the outlook. The kitchen itself has a wide range of wall, base and drawer units alongside a breakfast bar and Aga. To the rear of the house there is access from outside into a passage where there is a utility room, store and study.

There is access into the former tea rooms from the kitchen/dining room where there is a second kitchen/utility room, WC and the tea room itself which is a circular shape with windows overlooking the beach. A flight of stairs rise to the first floor in the former tea room to two store rooms. Subject to necessary planning consents the former tea rooms could be incorporated within the house to create a further reception room with bedroom above.

In the main house, stairs rise from the entrance hall to the first floor which offers five bedrooms, a family bathroom and WC. Rooms of particular interest are the three front bedrooms which all have an incredible view out over the beach.

Gardens and Grounds
Outside, it is all about the location with the front gardens all focused on the beach opposite. The gardens wrap around the property with numerous established flower beds and a driveway providing off road parking for at least two cars.

Location

Moult Farm enjoys an incredible, elevated position with uninterrupted views over North Sands which is about 5 metres from the garden boundary.

Salcombe is one of the most sought after addresses on Devon’s south coast and for good reason; the town is situated on the Kingsbridge and Salcombe Estuary, flanked by the glorious rolling countryside of the South Hams and is renowned for its micro climate which makes it an ideal place for year round living. Salcombe offers two sandy beaches, North Sands and South Sands and a short boat trip across the water to East Portlemouth provides access to Mill Bay and Sunny Cove, two beautiful sandy beaches owned by the National Trust. The bustling town centre is about a mile away and offers an eclectic and charming mix of shops, restaurants and pubs.

The Georgian market town of Kingsbridge is about 6 miles distant, providing additional primary and secondary schools, as well as a more extensive range of interesting local shops, supermarkets and many other amenities.

Communications are excellent with access to the M5 motorway at Exeter, via the A38 Devon Expressway being about 15 miles.

Square Footage: 2,740 sq ft
