"A Characterful And Enchanting Cottage In The Heart Of The Picture Postcard Coastal Village Of Dittisham."
The Property
As you meander down scenic Manor Street in the picture postcard village of Dittisham, just before the quay, a distinctive pink cottage with a bold green door catches your eye. This is Crooks Cottage – a characterful, Grade II Listed home at the heart of this popular coastal village. Built in the 18th Century, this former fisherman’s cottage welcomes us like an old friend.
Stepping through the quaint wooden door, a cosy living room welcomes you – brimming with warmth and character. Soft natural light gently pours through the South-facing window, casting a warm glow across the room. Why not settle yourself into the window seat with a captivating book in hand? Whitewashed walls are the perfect backdrop for a charming inglenook fireplace, where the wood burner crackles invitingly, providing an enchanting focal point whether relaxing on the sofa or dining with friends.
The kitchen is stylish with its patterned tiling complementing the shaker cabinetry and rich-toned wooden worktops. A great Pantry and Utility Room provide plenty of room to prepare tasty delights for your guests. Plus there‘s a handy cloakroom too.
Let the enchanting allure of the river work its magic when you relax in the garden as you contemplate your day ahead whilst breakfasting in this enchanting setting. Or as the sun sets, relax and unwind in the splendour of the majestic river and countryside views.
Upstairs you will find two double Bedrooms – havens of tranquility and comfort. Bedroom one invites you to unwind in its King-size bed, offering views of village life through the pretty mullion windows. Bedroom two is equally as inviting, with the vaulted ceiling offering a unique ambience as well as stunning views of the River Dart and surrounding countryside.
Then soak away your day in the contemporary family bathroom.
