Outstanding retro family home

Kessel House is a large, central Dartmouth family townhouse which has been beautifully restored for hosting the perfect holiday for families and couples alike. Modern touches complement the pristine 1920s time-capsule theme. Three large bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living rooms, a grassy garden and off-street parking. Just a few minutes' walk to Dartmouth's riverside and tree-lined embankment - with its diverse cafés and restaurants, independent shops, and snug, age-old inns.


Accommodation:

The front door of this very traditional-looking town house opens to the first-floor hallway which sets the tone for the property - a modern space with solid wood floors and fun film memorabilia.

Off the main hall is the first of the two living rooms, playfully known as the 'Cocktail Room' (in a Gatsby-esque 1920s style) with two comfortable sofas, an easy chair and a tall cocktail cabinet. It's the perfect spot for evening drinks. There is also a cleverly-hidden TV in one of the cabinets.

The master bedroom on the first floor has a kingsize bed and includes a TV and DVD player. The second bedroom has twin zip-link beds that can be converted into a large double bed.

The first bathroom is just off the first-floor landing - a shower room with heated towel rail.

Upstairs to the second floor where there's the third bedroom featuring a kingsize bed. There's also the family bathroom with a bath and a separate shower cubicle and electric towel rail.

The ground-floor kitchen diner is a light and airy room that looks out over the back garden, with a serving hatch through to the second living room. It's a great social space where the whole family can get together, relax, prepare food and eat together.

The kitchen itself is very well equipped with a dishwasher, fridge-freezer as well as a modern gas range. The combination of old and new runs through the shaker-style design, with wooden worktops playing against the feature butler sink with traditional carved wooden housing.

A small utility cupboard by the back door is where you'll find the washer-dryer. A stable door gives access to the grassy garden and the parking bay.

Through the kitchen is the second living room which continues the light and airy feel with a large serving hatch between the two spaces - furnished with a comfortable leather sofa and armchair, coffee table, TV, and log-effect electric fire.

Outside:

To the rear of the property is an enclosed garden with a large flat lawn area. Outdoor garden furniture makes it the ideal spot for al fresco dining or an evening glass of fizz

Please note that there are a couple of stone steps down from the back door which might pose a fall hazard for small children.

Parking:

There is parking allocated at the rear of the property for one car and an additional limited on-street parking nearby.
