Riverside Road East, NEWTON FERRERS, South Devon

DESCRIPTION
Honeysuckle Cottage is a charming character home, dating back to the 1800s, and is situated in the heart of the village, adjacent to the public slipway.  The property occupies a southerly facing location with bright and airy accommodation arranged over two floors.

Honeysuckle Cottage is approached through a stable door opening into a porch that leads to an inviting entrance hallway.  The Sitting Room is an excellent size, with an attractive gas living flame stove set into recessed fireplace, and windows overlooking the river. A practical study area is discretely tucked away beside the staircase leading to the first floor.  The inviting Dining Room is located across the Entrance Hallway, and is a perfect space for formal entertaining.  The kitchen is generously proportioned with ample room for a central table and is fully fitted with a range of units, complimented by an elegant fitted dresser. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility/larder providing additional storage and a downstairs shower room. 

Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms and a family bathroom.  The Principal Bedroom has an en-suite shower room and generous fitted storage cupboards.

Unusually for a waterfront property, the cottage provides off road parking for multiple vehicles in addition to the double garage.  The garden is terraced and predominantly lawned with numerous vantage points from which to enjoy the waterside location.  A large outbuilding can be accessed from the rear of the cottage, and would make a perfect Artist's Studio or Workshop.

SITUATION
The twin villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo enjoy a delightful riverside setting on the wooded slopes of the estuary of the River Yealm. This sheltered, deep water harbour is much favoured by yachtsmen and lies within a truly beautiful valley in the unspoilt South Hams countryside, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. 

The villages share a number of facilities including a post office, pharmacy, Co-operative store, three good public houses, a deli/café, two churches, yacht club with bistro, art studio and good Primary School. Bus services run to Plymouth City Centre which is within easy commuting distance. The main route from Plymouth to Exeter (A38/M5 Devon Expressway) is only a few miles away. Intercity trains to London Paddington run throughout the day from Plymouth Station (10 miles) or Ivybridge Station (10 miles). The Continental Ferry-port is also easily accessible. All give superb access to the rest of the country, combined with living in one of the most beautiful riverside locations on the south coast. 

Plymouth itself is an historic and vibrant waterside City, well provided with colleges, grammar and public schools, modern university, the Peninsula Medical School, Theatre Royal and cinemas, large department stores, cafes, bistros and restaurants. The leisure facilities are outstanding with superb water-sports in and around Plymouth Sound
