The Property

Winding down quintessential country lanes edged with hedgerows and open countryside, the journey to Tuckenhay feels like a gentle release from the everyday. The landscape softens, the air shifts and the River Harbourne appears quietly as it widens towards the estuary. Directly on the quay, at the water’s edge, a former cider barn has been thoughtfully converted into four refined townhouses. Occupying an exclusive riverside position, this beautifully presented home enjoys uninterrupted views across the estuary and into the surrounding woodland beyond.

The setting shapes the experience of living here. Life moves with the rhythm of the tide and the quiet activity of the water. From the quay, access to the estuary is immediate, offering a natural connection to paddleboarding, kayaking, small craft and waterside walks. The ground floor has been designed with practicality in mind, providing a generous garage with ample space for a vehicle alongside equipment, outdoor gear and general storage, making it ideally suited to an active riverside lifestyle.

The first floor offers calm and comfortable accommodation. The principal bedroom is a peaceful retreat, with two windows framing views across the water and trees beyond, and deep built in wardrobes that maintain a sense of space and simplicity. Adjacent is a spacious family bathroom, while a further double bedroom and separate shower room provide flexibility for guests, family or occasional home working.

Above, the top floor forms the heart of the home. Fully open plan and filled with natural light, this level has been designed to make the most of its exceptional setting. A contemporary Kitchen with a stylish curved granite breakfast bar sits at one end of the bright space, flowing naturally into Dining and Living Areas. A fully glazed bay opens onto a Balcony that overlooks the estuary, drawing the landscape into everyday living and creating a natural focal point throughout the seasons. The Living Space has been carefully designed to feel both open and inviting, open to the Kitchen and rising to the Mezzanine level above. Dual aspect and enhanced by skylights set within the vaulted ceiling, the room is filled with natural light throughout the day, creating a bright yet relaxed atmosphere.

Honey-toned engineered wood flooring runs underfoot, adding warmth and continuity to the space. An open staircase leads to the Mezzanine, allowing light to travel freely between levels while introducing a distinctive architectural feature that adds character and a sense of volume to the room. A mezzanine level adds both height and architectural interest, creating a versatile retreat area that works equally well as a workspace, reading area, games space or informal sitting area for relaxing together.
