SITUATION Dartmouth is not your average sleepy coastal town. It is buzzing with culture, art, gastronomic offerings and a lively community spirit. Well known for its famous Royal Regatta and Royal Naval College, Dartmouth is steeped in history and its architecture is unique to the town. Dartmouth provides a good range of shops, restaurants and galleries and is surrounded by wonderful countryside whilst only a short drive from some of the most beautiful beaches in the area. The A38 Devon expressway is approximately 19 miles away, allowing speedy access to the cities of Exeter and Plymouth and the country beyond whilst main line rail links to London Paddington can be made in Totnes.

Being close to the town centre makes this a wonderful home for those working nearby whilst it could also be utilised as a second home due to being able to lock up and leave and the location which is ideal for exploring the surrounding coast and countryside. 58b is a beautifully presented maisonette offering spacious and bright accommodation arranged over two floors including a sitting/dining room, high spec kitchen, two double bedrooms and smartly finished bathroom.
