Joymead

Joymead is a house in Kingsbridge with a long lawned garden, a rope swing and chiminea set among the patio seating, a fence and shed marking the far end.

A grey corner sofa beside the staircase

The living room pairs a grey corner sofa with tartan cushions and a wooden chest coffee table, set beside the staircase. The kitchen has a wood counter opening onto the garden, its dining table set beneath open shelving against a coral-painted wall, with a sheepskin-covered bench along one side.

Three bedrooms, including one for children

Three bedrooms include two finished in white or black-and-white bedding, and a children's room decorated with polka dot wallpaper, teal walls and a book display beneath a window seat. The bathroom has a bath with a blue mosaic tile border beneath the window.

A garden with a slide and a rope swing

The long lawned garden holds a rope swing, chiminea, patio seating and a children's slide among the rose bushes, plenty of space for children to play through the day, with a wider view of the lawn showing the play equipment from further off.

Estuary views from the cliff path

The estuary opens out from a jetty and the cliff path, a church spire stands against the sky, and a reed-lined creek reflects the hills.

A family garden close to Salcombe

With three bedrooms and a proper garden for children, Joymead suits a family wanting space to play close to Salcombe, the garden doing much of the work.
