The Property

Set within the attractive and exclusive Manor Court, number 7 is a home that has been transformed with remarkable attention to detail, creating a residence that feels both elegant and effortlessly contemporary. Positioned within one of the South Hams’ most sought-after coastal villages, it offers refined modern living, beautifully arranged Gardens and the convenience of village life quite literally on the doorstep.

From the moment of arrival, there is an unmistakable sense of quality. The home has undergone a comprehensive programme of renovation and updating, with every room thoughtfully finished to an exceptional standard. The result is a home that feels entirely current while retaining a warmth and practicality that make it equally suited to family life, entertaining and quiet retreat.

The Reception Spaces flow naturally from one to another, creating a wonderfully sociable environment filled with light. The Living Room is a particularly inviting space, centred around a handsome fireplace with wood-burning stove that provides both warmth and character throughout the seasons. A distinctive architectural window frames views across the village towards the sea beyond, drawing natural light deep into the room and creating an ever-changing backdrop. Beautifully presented and finished with a refined contemporary aesthetic, it offers an elegant setting for both relaxed evenings and entertaining alike.

At the heart of the home lies the exceptional Kitchen and Family Space, a room designed around modern living and finished with considerable style. Bespoke two-tone cabinetry is complemented by sleek black granite worktops, creating a sophisticated yet highly practical workspace. A distinctive semi-circular breakfast bar forms a natural focal point, allowing the cook to remain part of the conversation while preparing meals, whether entertaining guests or enjoying everyday family life. Flooded with natural light, this impressive space embraces its connection with the Garden. A fully glazed wing, complete with French doors opening onto a sunny Patio, softens the boundary between inside and out, while large bifolding doors draw the Garden seamlessly into the home during the warmer months. A generous Dining Area is equally suited to leisurely breakfasts, family suppers and larger gatherings. Between the Kitchen and Living Room, a more intimate and formal Dining Room provides an elegant setting for entertaining, creating a natural progression between the Principal Reception Spaces. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the quality of materials to the impeccable standard of finish, resulting in a space that is both visually striking and effortlessly functional.

The same level of care continues throughout the Bedroom accommodation, where the thoughtful design of the house creates a sense of privacy and separation rarely found in modern homes. The Principal Suite occupies its own private wing and is accessed via a dedicated staircase from the reception hall. Light-filled and beautifully presented, it enjoys elevated views across the village towards the coastline beyond, creating a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. A generous Dressing Room provides excellent storage, while the superbly appointed En Suite Bathroom has been finished to an exceptional standard and features both a bath and a separate walk-in Shower, combining practicality with a sense of everyday indulgence.

A second staircase rises to the remaining Bedroom Wing, where two remarkably spacious Bedrooms showcase the individuality of the home’s architecture. Both rooms benefit from striking A-frame windows that flood the spaces with natural light while creating character and visual interest. Their generous proportions offer flexibility for family life, guests or home working, while Bedroom Two provides a particularly appealing surprise, with access to an additional loft space that lends itself perfectly to a Playroom, Creative Studio, occasional Workspace or invaluable Storage. Serving this level is a beautifully updated Shower Room, stylishly appointed and finished with the same meticulous attention to detail evident throughout the home.

Externally

Beyond the house, the Gardens unfold as a series of beautifully composed outdoor rooms, each with its own character and purpose. Designed as much for relaxation as they are for entertaining, the spaces flow naturally from one to the next, encouraging a slower pace and a closer connection with the seasons. From morning coffee on the sunlit Patio to long summer lunches overlooking the lawn and evening drinks in the sheltered seating area below, the Garden offers a choice of settings throughout the day. Contemporary planting brings structure, texture and year-round interest, softening the landscape around a broad level lawn that forms the heart of the Garden. Raised vegetable beds provide a productive element for those who enjoy growing their own produce, while the Garden Room creates a peaceful retreat for reading, creative pursuits or simply escaping with a good book. In addition, a good-sized Workshop provides an escape for hobbies or further storage. Beautifully tended and thoughtfully arranged, this is a Garden that complements the house perfectly, extending the living space outdoors and providing a private and tranquil setting in which to enjoy the South Hams lifestyle.

Practicality has been considered as carefully as aesthetics. The integrated double Garage provides secure Parking and excellent storage, with the considerable convenience of direct access into the house, particularly welcome during the winter months or after returning from the beach. Adjacent to the Kitchen, a well-appointed Utility Room offers a dedicated space for laundry and everyday household tasks, helping to keep the principal living areas effortlessly organised. A smart block-paved Driveway provides ample Parking for multiple vehicles, creating an attractive approach to the house while ensuring the practical requirements of modern family life are met with ease.

Beautifully renovated, impeccably presented and occupying a prime position within one of Devon’s most desirable coastal villages, 7 Manor Court is a home of exceptional quality that balances contemporary style with the relaxed rhythm of South Hams living.
