Farthings is a striking contemporary waterfront home set on a large, elevated plot overlooking the River Yealm. Nearly 3,000 sq ft of light-filled, multi-level accommodation is arranged around dramatic double-height spaces and expansive glazing, creating generous wall areas ideal for art display and sociable family living. The house was rebuilt to an exacting architectural brief and has been recently renovated to present a clean, modern finish.
The accommodation is versatile: upper-level bedrooms offer elevated estuary views, a principal sitting room opens onto a wide wraparound balcony, and the lower ground floor delivers a vast kitchen/dining area that flows directly to a sun terrace. The sloping garden leads down to private foreshore decking with direct estuary access and an outhaul mooring (by harbour master permission), providing genuine waterfront lifestyle opportunities.
Practical strengths include off-street parking, separate utility and boot rooms, and good broadband speeds. The village location is peaceful yet close to local amenities, schools rated Good, and coastal recreation. Note the property sits on several levels with steps down to the water and a substantial footprint that will require routine upkeep.
Buyers should be aware of a few material points: council tax is quite expensive, mobile signal is average, and the outhaul mooring is subject to harbour master permission. The home’s scale, elevated glazing and architectural detailing may limit low-cost alterations — inspections are recommended to confirm specific maintenance or adaptation needs.
