The top floor is dedicated entirely to the principal suite, a private sanctuary with far-reaching views, a beautifully appointed en suite, and a walk-in dressing area. On the ground floor, four additional bedrooms, three with en suites, all open onto the gardens, with full-height windows drawing in light and anchoring the house to its coastal setting. A sophisticated TV viewing room, simple gymnasium, utility room, family bathroom and storage cupboard complete the accommodation, offering a quiet and versatile layer of space below the main living areas.
Telhaven was designed with long-term energy performance in mind. The house is also fitted with Cat 6 wiring and low energy lighting throughout, with high-speed broadband available, a considered, future ready approach to modern living. Equipment for the Mesh Wi-Fi system, Sonos and TV signal distribution is housed in a media cupboard off the hall. An air source heat pump is supported by solar panels supplying the heating and hot water.
The landscaped gardens reflect the simplicity and structure of the house itself, elegantly restrained, coastal in spirit, and low maintenance by design featuring a robot lawn mower. Tiered terraces and carefully placed planting offer a variety of outdoor spaces to enjoy, all set against the ever-present backdrop of sea and sky. A large integral double garage provides secure parking and ease of access, with ample additional parking behind the electric gate on the private drive which has an EV charging point.
Telhaven sits just beyond the village of Wembury, on Wembury Point, a captivating headland on the South Devon coast offering panoramic views of Wembury Bay, Plymouth Sound, and the iconic Great Mewstone. Now managed by the National Trust, the area is a thriving natural habitat adorned with wildflowers, roaming wild ponies, and a haven for birdwatchers. Accessible via the South West Coast Path, Wembury Point is a serene spot for walking and enjoying the coastal beauty of South Devon.
Offering a rare sense of seclusion, Telhaven remains within easy reach of excellent transport links and shopping facilities, six miles to Plymouth, with quick access to the A38 for Exeter, the M5, and beyond. Plymouth Railway Station provides a vital and efficient link to London Paddington with regular direct services typically taking around three to four hours. This connection makes the city exceptionally accessible for those balancing coastal living with city commitments.
