Brook House, Dittisham

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque riverside village of Dittisham, Brook House offers a serene escape reminiscent of the classic adventures of "Swallows and Amazons." Imagine waking each morning to the gentle murmur of the brook making its way to the nearby River Dart, where the reflections of dawn dance upon the water, creating a magical ambience as the river's sparkling wash playfully greets your gaze. Every window frames a masterpiece of natural beauty, making every moment feel like a cherished adventure waiting to unfold.

Having conveniently parked in the meadow next to the house, we approach this charming home along a short, flower-lined path leading to a grand wooden door, standing as a majestic sentinel to your adventures within. As you step through, the creak of the wood echoes tales of past explorations and new memories waiting to be made. The Kitchen is a spacious haven of light, with dual-aspect windows inviting the morning sun to dance across the fresh blue and white tiles. Enjoy breakfast at the charming nook overlooking the serene river, surrounded by elegant wooden cabinets and pristine white worktops.

The formal Dining Room, nestled at the rear of the house, exudes an atmospheric charm, perfect for elegant dinner gatherings that linger long into the night. This room could also serve well as a fourth double Bedroom or Home Office.

The expansive Living Room captivates with its charming woodburning stove at one end and a large leaded window at the other, offering mesmerizing views of the river. An ancient beam from a long-lost ship creatively divides the space into two inviting zones: a spacious light-filled sitting area and a tranquil Morning Room with a Balcony that overlooks the verdant Grounds of the house.

Wind downstairs where we find three spacious Bedrooms all designed to envelop you in comfort and tranquillity, with ample storage ensuring a clutter-free sanctuary. The Principal Bedroom is a haven of serenity, with captivating river views and access to the pretty walled Garden. Indulge in the luxurious Ensuite Shower and Bathroom, where you can soak in the beauty of nature from the privacy of your retreat.

All of the Bedrooms benefit from large windows on two aspects of the house, allowing for calming natural light and views over the enchanting Garden.

A large Family Bathroom with bidet services this floor. As we leave to explore the grounds, take a peek at the Utility and Boot Room on this floor.

Surrounded by a tapestry of mature shrubs and vibrant climbers that cascade in a riot of colours, the enchanting Garden is a serene sanctuary. A gentle brook meanders past the south-facing stone Patio, adding a soothing symphony of babbling water to diners as they enjoy lunch in peaceful surroundings.

To the front of this characterful stone house lies a terraced Orchard, each level ascending to unveil increasingly breathtaking views of the Dart. A large stone-built double Garage stands proudly on this land. Currently housing the tractor for the grounds but also perfect for housing boating paraphernalia or garaging. It is bursting with potential for development as a charming Summer House or ancillary accommodation with its large skylights, porthole window and characterful exposed beams. The Orchard has ample space for fruiting trees a-plenty, creating a lush, productive landscape against the backdrop of the glistening river.

The Meadow is a glorious expanse, ripe for tree-climbing adventures and boundless exploration. Fabulous mature trees dot the landscape, casting dappled sunlight across the verdant grass. At the heart of this wonderland lies a magnificent natural Pond, teeming with vibrant bursts of nature. There is ample room for parking and storing boats, poised for launch from The Ham, ready to embark on further adventures along the Dart.
