Set high above Fore Street, Crabbers Loft is a newly refurbished first-floor apartment with superb uninterrupted views up the River Dart. The large picture window in the lounge/diner frames the harbour and brings in light; the layout includes two double bedrooms, a bathroom and a modern fitted kitchen. The property is practical and warm in feel, while retaining period character from its early 20th century build.
This is a long-leasehold apartment (999 years from 1987) with nominal ground rent and eligibility for a residents’ parking permit. It sits in the heart of Kingswear village: shops, cafés, pubs, ferry and marina are all within easy walking distance. Broadband is up to 74 Mb/s and mobile signal is excellent — useful for working or keeping in touch with family.
Buyers should note the apartment is heated by electric storage heaters and runs on mains electricity (no community heating). Access is via one flight of stairs with no lift, and the building’s original granite walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs despite the EPC C rating. Parking is on-street only; there may be occasional reliance on the permit scheme and local spaces.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking a low-maintenance, characterful riverside base or retirement/downsizing home in a lively coastal village. It combines modern fittings and a long lease with straightforward access to local amenities and scenic outdoor life on the River Dart.
