Ferrystone, Kingswear, Dartmouth

Charming Period Home with Large Terrace, Garage & River Dart Views – Central Kingswear with Holiday Let & Retail Income Potential

Ferrystone offers a well-considered combination of comfortable living and practical flexibility. Thoughtfully arranged to support everyday life and time spent on the water, this home also benefits from useful income potential - currently operating as a holiday let and having a separate retail unit below.

On entering the house through your own front door, you have a useful Porch area off which is the Utility Room and access to the Garage. These areas provide practical spaces for storing wetsuits, sailing equipment and outdoor clothing after time spent on the river.

The Garage itself offers valuable storage for boats, paddleboards and leisure equipment, supporting an active coastal lifestyle.

On the first floor at the heart of the home, with its stylish clean-lined cabinetry and light worktops, the Kitchen is designed for easy day-to-day use, its windows framing a peaceful outlook across the pretty surrounding gardens.

Across the Hallway, the Dining Room provides a comfortable setting for both entertaining and quieter moments. Featuring a window seat positioned to take in views across the River Dart, creating a natural place to pause with a book or simply watch the movement of the water below.

The Living Room is a generous space, arranged to take full advantage of its proportions and natural light. Comfortable and well-balanced, it offers ample room for relaxed everyday living. The large window draws in the changing light throughout the day and enhances the connection to the surrounding setting, while the scale of the room creates a calm and welcoming atmosphere.

Whether used for quiet evenings, entertaining friends or simply unwinding after a day on the river, the Living Room provides a central and inviting heart to the home.

Outside, a generous south-facing sun Terrace extends the living space, where the outlook and changing light create an inviting setting for dining, conversation or peaceful afternoons in the open air.

Upstairs, this lovely home has been designed with rest in mind. Three well-proportioned double Bedrooms provide calm, private spaces, each with its own river outlook.

The Principal Bedroom benefits from an Ensuite Shower Room and enjoys river views, as does the second Bedroom, while the third looks across the peaceful side of the Village as well as offering those calming water views.

The arrangement of the Bedrooms feels considered and balanced, with each space offering its own character and outlook.

Discover Kingswear: Coastal Living At Its Best

Nestled on the sunny eastern bank of the River Dart, opposite the historic harbour town of Dartmouth, Kingswear is a picturesque South Devon village with a charm all of its own. Colourful houses tumble down the hillside towards the water, where sailing boats, passing ferries and the gentle rhythm of river life create an idyllic setting. Surrounded by beautiful countryside and protected coastal scenery, it’s a wonderful place to enjoy a relaxed pace of life within a welcoming community.

Life in Kingswear offers plenty to enjoy, from sailing at the Royal Dart Yacht Club and exploring Darthaven Marina to relaxing in traditional village pubs such as the Steam Packet Inn and The Ship Inn. Independent cafés and eateries provide inviting spots for coffee, brunch or a leisurely meal, while the village store offers everyday essentials.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the South West Coast Path and Dart Valley Trail open up miles of spectacular walks, with secluded coves, rugged cliffs and panoramic estuary views along the way. Nearby, the National Trust’s Coleton Fishacre offers beautiful gardens and striking Art Deco architecture, while the iconic Dartmouth Steam Railway provides a nostalgic journey through the South Devon countryside to Paignton.

A short ferry ride across the Dart brings Dartmouth’s boutiques, galleries, restaurants, cafés and cultural attractions within easy reach. With sailing, walking, wildlife, heritage and community life on the doorstep, Kingswear offers a truly special opportunity to embrace the best of coastal living.

Excellent road connections provide easy access to Exeter and the M5, while nearby railway stations at Paignton, Totnes, Newton Abbot and Exeter offer connections to destinations across the country, including London Paddington.
