Lodge House is a substantial detached family home set in the heart of Hope Cove, a picturesque coastal village within the South Devon AONB. The house benefits from strong sea and bay views, a large roof terrace, a private balcony off the principal bedroom and easy pedestrian access to two sandy beaches, cafés and pubs. The layout works well for family use or as a holiday-let, with multiple en suites and flexible reception space arranged over two storeys.
The property is currently used successfully as a holiday home and produces significant income; generous parking and dedicated boat storage add practical value for coastal owners. Internally the home is bright with large glazing and patio doors, a kitchen/dining area opening to a rear terrace and a ground-floor bedroom wing that provides dual-aspect sleeping accommodation and step-free access to the garden.
Buyers should note material points before viewing: the house was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s and cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation, so upgrading thermal performance may be needed. Heating runs from an oil-fired boiler (not a community supply) which is typically costlier and will require ongoing servicing. The property sits in a medium flood-risk area — suitable insurance and any necessary flood mitigations should be considered. An on-site inspection is recommended to confirm condition and to establish any refurbishment or maintenance requirements.
Overall this is a rare coastal opportunity that will suit families wanting easy beach access, buyers seeking an income-producing holiday home, or owners who value private terraces and parking for boats. The seaside location, flexible accommodation and income potential are the main attraction; budget for improvements to heating and insulation if long-term ownership is planned.
