  • Attractive period property with high-level decked terrace with spectacular harbour views

  • Short walk to Brixham town centre and harbour 
Property code: OC-BX028

Brixham is the perfect place for a romantic retreat on the south coast. And with its spectacular harbour and sea views, this cosy two-storey period property makes the most of its stunning setting. Here you’ll embrace a slower pace of life, surrounded by secluded beaches, as well as the popular harbour.

With original features retained throughout, you’ll feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Modern touches are evident too, from the first floor en-suite to the additional bathroom furnished with a relaxing roll-top bath. In cooler months, curl up in front of the coal effect fire with a good book or your favourite TV show. But the house’s real gem is its high-level decked terrace, which boasts far-reaching views over town and sea - an idyllic spot to enjoy a glass of wine as the sun sets.

Sample the deliciously fresh local seafood in one of Brixham’s many local pubs and restaurants, perhaps after a day exploring the coastal paths which lead out of town, beyond the beaches at St Mary’s Bay (2 miles) and Fishcombe Cove (1 mile). The harbour itself is a fascinating place for a stroll; here you’ll see fishing boats, pleasure craft, and ferries which run around the bay to Torquay (11 miles by car).

This is a perfect cottage. It is comfortable, spacious, exceptionally well-equipped, very clean and beautifully decorated. The views over the harbour are amazing. Co-op and other small supermarkets and lots of good restaurants within 10 minutes - several within 5. The steps up are somewhat daunting but you can go round the corner to the other end oRead moref the terrace and use a shorter flight if it helps. Brixham itself is all up and down so steps are generally impossible to avoid. Hide
