Rose Cottage – A Timeless Devonshire Retreat with Breathtaking Views
Nestled in the tranquil hamlet of Higher Slade Road, Rose Cottage is an exquisite detached Devon longhouse, rich in history and character. Dating back to the early 1800s, this beautifully restored home offers an unparalleled blend of charm, modern refinement, and breathtaking scenery. Perfectly positioned within walking distance of the local town and just two miles from the spectacular Lee Bay, it also benefits from immediate access to Caine Nature Reserve, making it a true sanctuary for nature lovers.
A Home That Blends Elegance with Comfort
The property has been thoughtfully enhanced to the highest standard, preserving its original character—including exposed beams, charming window seats, and stunning period features—while seamlessly integrating modern comforts. Double glazing throughout ensures warmth and efficiency, while a private driveway offers parking for two vehicles.
Spacious & Inviting Living Areas
Step through the bright and welcoming porch into an enchanting open-plan dining area, currently styled as a snug—a perfect retreat for relaxed evenings. The expansive sitting room boasts dual-aspect views, a cosy open fireplace, and elegant double doors leading to the garden, allowing for a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
The heart of the home is a bespoke country kitchen, designed to perfection with real royal blue wood cabinetry, Apollo quartz countertops, a double Belfast sink, and natural slate flooring. The breakfast area is flooded with natural light, offering the perfect setting for morning coffee. Beyond, a dedicated utility room provides additional convenience, with direct access to the rear garden.
Flexible Accommodation for Modern Living
The ground floor features a versatile additional bedroom, ideal for guests, a home office, or even as a lucrative Airbnb space, complete with a private shower room.
Upstairs, the lavish master suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a private hallway, walk-in wardrobe, and an indulgent en-suite bathroom. Luxuriate in a Burlington claw-foot bathtub, complemented by a Kensington basin and taps, and a walk-in rainfall shower—a spa-like retreat within your own home. Two further generous double bedrooms offer tranquil views, while an additional well-appointed shower room completes this floor.
A Garden Oasis with Stunning Views
Outside, the beautifully designed tiered garden is a peaceful retreat. The level lawn area, finished with high-quality artificial turf, extends from the parking area, offering a low-maintenance space perfect for relaxation. A charming timber greenhouse caters to garden enthusiasts, while the raised decked terrace provides a breathtaking vantage point to soak in coastal glimpses and woodland views. At the top of the garden, a stylish summer house invites you to unwind with a glass of wine, gazing out over the rolling hills, ocean views all within a serene landscape.
With its idyllic setting, refined interiors, and exceptional craftsmanship, Rose Cottage is a rare gem—a home that offers both seclusion and convenience, where timeless character meets contemporary luxury.
