Watch Hill

Watch Hill is a white house seen from above with a balcony and garden, palm trees framing wide estuary views across the hillside houses of Salcombe.

Fireplaces, bay windows and a chess table

The house runs to more than one sitting room: a sectional sofa faces a fireplace and television in one, a second pairs a fireplace with a gallery wall and a chess table, and a third takes a bay window seat overlooking the estuary. A dining area with a bookshelf sits close to a fireplace of its own. The wood-fronted kitchen has a black granite island with bar stools, and a separate dining table is set with wine glasses beside a window looking toward the beach.

Five bedrooms, including a bunk room for children

Five bedrooms range from a teal-headboarded room with French doors onto a balcony to a built-in bench bed tucked under the eaves, and a children's room fitted with a bunk bed and a single bed in blue accents. The three bathrooms include more than one freestanding bath set beneath a window, plus a brick-effect tiled shower with a vessel sink.

Terraces and a garden looking down to the estuary

Outside, a terrace with a glass balustrade steps down to a garden with sun loungers, and a shaded nook offers a quieter spot beneath the foliage. A dog rests on the sofa in one of the rooms, in keeping with the house's dog-friendly listing, and a terrace dining table is set for breakfast beside a barbecue with the estuary in view.

Room for a large family gathering

With five bedrooms sleeping up to eleven, parking and a garden, Watch Hill suits a large family or several couples gathering together in Salcombe, close to East Portlemouth Beach and Small's Cove Beach.
