Welcome to The Victorian House. Step up the short flight of steps and through your elegant panelled and glazed front

door set beneath a traditional over-light and enter the handsome hall. Original stripped wood flooring guides you up to the fine period staircase.

To your right is the Dining Room, a showcase of

Victorian elegance and grandeur with an elegant painted wooden mantelpiece surrounding the fire and original servant’s bells. A large walk in bay window throws beams of light and movement back into this delightful room.

With high-end entertaining at home becoming more popular, The Victorian House has the

ultimate in luxury entertaining spaces accessed directly off the dining room. Sleek bespoke kitchen cabinets work in harmony with the home’s historic architecture and are serenely decorated using a neutral palette which compliments the contemporary appliances and modern day conveniences required for a busy family life. From here, one door accesses the utility/boot room, with a further door leading out to the side of the property.

Historical features blend with modern flair

The other door leads into the inner hall with useful guest

cloakroom. Make your way to the sitting room. Subtle, elegant colours reflect light from the walk in bay window, illuminating this relaxing and inviting sitting room. The south facing light provides the feeling of space, yet so cosy. Hunker down in front of the crackling log-burning stove on those chilly winter evenings. Enjoy the views out through the front window to the colourful townhouses beyond.

Taking the stairs to the first floor from the entrance hall, pause for a

moment to admire the view through the pretty period window, before exploring the first two double bedrooms. Both these bedrooms have en-suites and decorative Victorian detailing such as original windows, dado and picture rails.

Take the staircase that leads to the second floor where you’ll find the

master suite, this graceful master bedroom has traditional sash windows that overlook the town and countryside beyond and the delightful terraced gardens at the back. Classic contemporary styles blend seamlessly in this spacious room which also has it’s own seating area and en-suite bathroom.

The fourth bedroom/second sitting room can also be accessed

The business potential of The Victorian House cannot go without a mention. Previously run as a successful Bed and Breakfast, it could provide a very handy income for the new homeowner.

Victorian grandeur at every turn

A door also leads outside from this room to the garden, accessed over your own bridge; it’s rare for a garden to merge so

well into a landscape, but the planting at The Victorian House harmonises perfectly with the surrounding Dartmouth landscape. With glimpses of St Saviour’s Church rising over the rooftops, the south facing terraced gardens are the perfect spot to enjoy entertaining in all seasons. Sear your steak and crack-open the wine while the family enjoys the lawn caressed in sunshine.

Enjoy sunny, spring afternoons and long summer evenings with friends and family on your perfectly positioned furniture. In fact, numerous entertaining and relaxation areas are dotted throughout the terraced gardens, alongside a garden store and also a studio with power and lighting. Could this be the ideal home office/workshop or even additional guest accommodation?

The Victorian House is only a stroll away from Dartmouth’s many shops. For big shops to quick emergency food runs, your local supermarket is never too far away. Take your time on a

warm summers day, or a speedy run through the cold winter mornings – you’ll never have to take the car to get the essentials.

Dartmouth offers a wide range of restaurants and entertainment. From quaint tea rooms and coffee shops, the ideal places to meet friends to The Seahorse Restaurant an elegant bistro situated right on the waterfront, with an open kitchen and leather banquettes – you can tuck into the delights such as charcoal roasted fish and seafood. Famous with locals and a little more laid back you have the infamous Café Alfresco serving the best breakfasts in town and Kendrick’s Restaurant for your fill of British cuisine and coastal specialities.

For schools, you are in the best location for almost every nearby school. Dartmouth pre-school is only a 5 minute walk away, whilst Dartmouth Academy and St Johns the Baptist Primary School are just a short bus ride away- you’ll never have to worry about the school runs.

This home's performance is rated in terms of the energy use per square metre of floor area, energy efficiency based on fuel costs and environmental impact based on carbon dioxide (CO²) emissions.

The figures in the table above have been provided to enable prospective buyers and tenants to compare the fuel costs andcarbon emissions of one home with another. To enable this comparison the figures have been calculated using standardised running conditions (heating periods, room temperature, etc.) that are the same for all homes, consequently they are unlikely to match an occupier's actual fuel bills and carbon emissions in practice. The figures do not include the impacts of the fuels used for cooking or running appliances, such as TV, fridge etc.; nor do they reflect the costs associated with service, maintenance or safety inspections. Always check the certificate date because fuel prices can change over time and energy saving recommendations will evolve.

To see how this home can achieve its potential rating please see the recommended measures.
