Hillside is a substantial, mid‑century detached family home set on an elevated plot in sought‑after Stoke Gabriel. The house extends to about 2,277 sq ft and offers generous reception space, a large fitted kitchen with island, a garden room, and an expansive sitting room that benefits from southerly aspect and views toward the River Dart and Mill Pond.
The mature, well‑kept rear garden is a key selling feature—large lawn, planted borders, greenhouse, summerhouse and a paved terrace at the top enjoying far‑reaching southerly views. The wide private drive provides rare off‑street parking in the village and leads to a single garage; there is also potential to reconfigure the current dressing room back into a fifth bedroom if required.
Practical details: the property is freehold, connected to mains services, has gas central heating, double glazing fitted after 2002 and sits outside flood risk. The home was built c.1967–1975 and has some dated internal decoration; the entrance hall and some rooms would benefit from updating. EPC Band D and cavity walls are noted with assumed lack of wall insulation, which could be improved for energy efficiency.
This house will suit families seeking generous, flexible accommodation in a riverside village with strong local amenities and schools. It also offers sensible renovation potential for buyers prepared to invest in modernisation and insulation improvements to enhance comfort and reduce running costs.
