Description
This four-bedroom detached house is set in a quiet cul-de-sac in Bigbury-on-Sea, with far-reaching coastal views towards Thurlestone Rock and Burgh Island. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes two ground-floor bedrooms, two first-floor double bedrooms with en-suite facilities, and a further ground-floor WC. The principal bedroom opens onto an elevated roof terrace, while the second first-floor bedroom has a large closet.
A combined living and dining room connects to the kitchen, with a separate utility room and boiler room providing additional practical space. The property is described as needing modernisation, giving a purchaser scope to update the existing accommodation. Outside, the plot includes front, rear and side garden areas, a garage and driveway parking for several vehicles. Further development potential is mentioned, subject to planning and verification of relevant title restrictions.
The property is offered with no onward chain. Bigbury-on-Sea's beaches, the Avon estuary and Burgh Island are within walking distance, while Modbury, Kingsbridge and Salcombe are further afield.

41out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
The standout is the coastal setting: panoramic views towards Thurlestone Rock and Burgh Island, plus an elevated roof terrace, give this spacious four-bedroom detached home a distinctive foundation. The broad garden, driveway and garage add to its appeal, while the photographed interiors are clean and usable but ready for a light, cosmetic update to bring the traditional finishes up to date.
The asking price is £800,000, around 18% above the local average per square foot, so value is the main constraint. With a mid-to-substantial works programme, the purchase price and improvement spend would also leave costs stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area; that comparison is with current local values, not a forecast of the property's value after renovation. The strong setting and scope to personalise are attractive, but the numbers make this a low-opportunity project at the current price.
Key opportunities
- Make the most of the panoramic coastal outlook and elevated roof terrace as defining features of the home.
- Refresh the traditional finishes in the clean, usable interiors, including the older-style kitchen and bathrooms.
- Improve the garden's uneven or bare lawn areas and make the most of the driveway, garage and generous plot.
Key risks
- At the current asking price, adding the planned improvement programme would leave total costs stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area.
- Budget carefully — economics look thin with the asking price plus a meaningful modernisation spend, about 16% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size — current-condition benchmarks only, not after-works GDV.
