4 Glenthorne House

4 Glenthorne House is a sage-painted Victorian house in Salcombe, bay windows and railings onto the street.

A blue sofa beside an inset fire

The living room pairs a blue sofa with an inset fire, the kitchen close by; a second sitting spot adds armchairs and a television beside French doors onto the balcony.

Two bedrooms with rooftop views

Two bedrooms include a double beneath a round mirror and painted chest of drawers, and a twin with green upholstered headboards below framed prints. The bathrooms include a bath alongside a timber vanity unit beneath a sash window, and a glazed shower cubicle in a tiled shower room.

A white kitchen open to the dining table

The white kitchen has an oven, extractor and fridge, the wooden dining table set with white chairs and a vase of roses beneath a framed Devon poster.

A balcony over the rooftops

A bistro table and chairs sit on the decked balcony among treetops, rooftops and green hills stretching out beyond, coffee and pastries often set out there in the morning.

Sea and harbour views over the town

Slate rooftops fall away to the moorings, yachts moored across the estuary below patchwork green hills, a church tower rising among the rooftops with farmland on the hill behind.

4 Glenthorne House suits a couple or small family wanting to be right in Salcombe — two bedrooms and sea views from the balcony, parking and a washing machine covering the rest. It suits a couple or small family who want Salcombe itself to be the main event, not a backdrop.
