Nestled within a private woodland setting and overlooking the picturesque South Sands Beach, this property presents a remarkable opportunity for renovation and enhancement in Salcombe. Greystones occupies one of the largest untouched plots in the area, boasting stunning views of Start Point and the Salcombe estuary. The interior currently consists of a hall/sitting room with a charming bay window, a kitchen/dining room also featuring a bay view, and three bedrooms, including a principal suite with an en-suite bathroom. Set on approximately 0.77 acres of sloped gardens, there exists significant potential for development.
Planning permission has already been secured from South Hams District Council (Ref: 2928/23/HHO) for substantial alterations to improve the layout across three floors. Proposed enhancements include an open-plan ground floor living space, additional bedrooms and bathrooms, and an impressive pavilion-style extension that could augment its footprint significantly.
The landscaping plans by award-winning designer Darren Hawkes promise to transform the outdoor spaces into inviting terraces ideal for relaxation and entertainment while integrating pathways through the lush gardens. Further possibilities include additional features such as off-street parking, a garage, a tree house studio, spa area, and even a boathouse contingent upon further planning approvals.
This locale not only offers breathtaking views but is also centrally situated near the vibrant amenities of Salcombe, known for its yachting culture and scenic coastal beauty. With local beaches, dining options, and community events close at hand, this property represents both an investment opportunity and a chance to create a bespoke home in one of South Devon's most coveted areas.
