Description
Millbay Cottage sits in an elevated position above Mill Bay beach on the stunning Salcombe Estuary enjoying views over the golden sandy beach, the estuary and the town of Salcombe and the surrounding countryside beyond.
The cottage itself dates back to around the 1900’s and is arranged over two floors. As soon as you step through the front door, the charm and character one would expect from a property of this period is clear.
The ground floor is largely open plan and the abundance of windows and French doors provide a wonderful amount natural light as well as views of the beach and estuary.
The well-equipped kitchen is integrated with a range of appliances including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, oven and hob.
Beyond this the dining and living areas are delightful and both benefit from French doors onto the south-facing terrace which is a stunning spot to take in the surroundings.
The ground floor also offers a utility room and cloakroom as well as access to the rear courtyard. Stairs rise to the first floor which offers three double bedrooms, all of which benefit from the wonderful views as well as a shower room and separate cloakroom.
Millbay Cottage benefits from a fabulous detached annexe with large picture windows which frame the views perfectly. The annexe offers a well-equipped kitchen, a lovely living room, a double bedroom, dressing room and family bathroom. From the living room French windows lead onto the full width balcony which overlooks the beach and estuary beyond.
Gardens and Grounds

Beyond the formal gardens are wonderful winding paths which meander through the mature woodland which surrounds the cottage. Nestled within the woodland is a Nissan hut which could be converted into accommodation subject to the necessary planning consents.
Millbay Cottage is approached via a gated driveway which leads to the double garage, garden store and ample driveway parking. There are also steps from the garden leading down to a gate onto the road for pedestrian access to the lane and the beach.
