Hillside Cottage holds its secrets closely. Set discreetly back from the roadside, it offers little hint of the beauty within, its unassuming façade concealing a home of remarkable transformation. Step inside and the sense of care, thought and style is immediately evident. The Entrance Hall sets the tone, but it is on reaching the open-plan Kitchen and Dining area that the true character of this home reveals itself.
The heart of the home has been reimagined with a design that balances warmth and elegance. Soft sage shaker cabinetry sits beneath smooth white quartz worktops, their muted tones allowing the craftsmanship to speak quietly yet confidently. A central island provides both an additional workspace and an informal gathering place, inviting conversation as meals are prepared. Above, a generous lantern skylight allows daylight to pour in, drawing attention to the considered proportions of the space. The Dining area, spacious enough for a substantial table, is ideal for hosting both lively gatherings and intimate suppers.
A cleverly designed built-in bookcase forms a natural transition between the Dining area and the Living Room, creating an open connection while adding both character and practicality. The Living Room itself is centred around a striking, stone fireplace, housing a modern multifuel stove that provides both warmth and character. This feature becomes the natural focal point of the space, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making this space inviting all year round. Wide sliding doors open to a contemporary Verandah, extending the living space into the landscape beyond.
The beautiful, south-facing, level lawned Garden offers an ever-changing backdrop of river and hillside. The views stretch up and down the water, across to Dartmouth, with light and colour shifting throughout the day. A discreet exit gate and two well-kept garden sheds add both function and convenience.
On the first floor, the guest Bedroom is a welcoming and restful retreat, its wall of built-in wardrobes maximising space while a large window frames the sweeping views. A second Bedroom, currently serving as a Study, offers flexibility for remote work or creative pursuits. The Bathroom on this level combines style and comfort, with a generous shower and a separate bath. Along the Landing, an ingenious built-in bookcase makes clever use of the space, guiding you to the second floor.
The Principal Suite occupies the upper level and is unexpectedly spacious. High ceilings create an airy sense of scale, while the windows capture the most elevated river views in the house. An En-Suite Shower Room, walk-in wardrobe, and additional built-in storage ensure that comfort and practicality are perfectly matched.

Hillside Cottage is not only a beautifully crafted home but also a gateway to an exceptional location: Kingswear, known for its colourful cottages, riverside setting and easy access to Dartmouth, enjoys the peace of a quiet community with the best of the South Hams on its doorstep. A short ferry ride away, Dartmouth is a town of remarkable charm and cultural richness. The winding streets, lined with independent galleries, wine bars, and artisan bakeries, lead you effortlessly towards the water’s edge. The marina, just minutes away, speaks to a slower pace of life, where sailing and wild swimming are not weekend novelties but part of the daily rhythm.
