A unique curved arch links the dining room, also dual aspect with French doors leading to the rear garden, exposed beams and charming wall recesses. From the sitting room, spiral stone stairs lead to the first floor. Off the entrance hall is the cottage style kitchen, fitted with an array of matching base and wall units, breakfast bar, integrated appliances and a Stanley cooker.

Upstairs, bedroom 1 has a front aspect window, fitted wardrobes and access to the loft. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are both double rooms with front aspect windows. The stylish family bathroom is arranged with a bath, walk-in shower, wc, basin and ladder style radiator.

To the front of the cottage are stone steps leading to a thatched porch, with a raised ornamental garden to the right. To the left of the property are double timber gates which open to a parking area leading to a detached double garage. To the rear of the cottage is a covered walk-way providing access to a utility. The wonderful garden is organised in 2 sections, both with lawn, established flower beds and shrub borders. Running along the rear of the property is a generous patio with a delightful seating area to the upper level.

Kingston is a peaceful and unspoilt South Hams village, which is made predominantly of pretty Devon cottages, many being thatched and which has a thriving community for all age groups. It has a well known village inn, The Dolphin and a church. The village lies some three to four miles south of the Georgian town of Modbury, which is well provided with a range of local shops. For more comprehensive shopping centres Kingsbridge is to the south east and Plymouth, which is within easy commuting distance, is to the north west. The coast is within a mile at Wonwell Beach and nearby there are other beaches and coves, as well as fine cliff top and coastal walks, and an 18 hole golf course at Bigbury. There is sailing at Salcombe, Newton Ferrers and on the Erme estuary, and to the north there is Dartmoor National Park.
