" Luxury apartment in beautifully restored mill on the banks of the River Dart.

SITUATION Staverton Mill is a beautifully restored mill on the banks of the River Dart in Staverton, a pretty village renowned for its steam trains, Sea Trout Inn and some of the best walks in the area. The A38 at Buckfastleigh is just 4 miles away providing fast access to Plymouth and the M5 at Exeter, with intercity trains running from nearby Totnes (journey time to London c3 hours). The location is perfect for canoeing, walking, fishing or visiting one of the area's many attractions including nearby Riverford Farm (home to an award winning organic restaurant) and historic Dartington Hall with its exclusive shops. DESCRIPTION Staverton Mill is a Grade II listed building which basically means that the architectural and historic interest of the building had to be carefully considered before any alterations, inside or outside, were agreed. Developers, Elmwood Properties Limited, worked closely with South Hams District Council and English Heritage to ensure that all criteria were met - from retaining the original weather vane through to ensuring the local wildlife were not affected in any way by the change of use. ACCOMMODATION Staverton Mill offers a mix of 8 two and three bedroom luxury houses and apartments, all dual aspect and some with vaulted, double height ceilings. The original features have been enhanced by innovative and contemporary architectural design - creating light and spacious living accommodation. Ground floor utility areas have been equipped with shower-rooms and kitchenette so are perfect for an active lifestyle. The high quality specification includes fully fitted Fagor kitchens, oak flooring and underfloor heating. Each house and apartment has an allocated parking space and the communal area includes a small beach, a large decking area overlooking the river and lawns to front and back. Number 7 Number 7, Staverton Mill, is a penthouse apartment with a mezzanine level (1,030 sq ft), on the third and fourth floors. There is a kitchen/living room, two bedrooms and bathroom on the third floor with the fourth floor being a mezzanine level with room for the third bedroom. INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY Staverton Mill is the ideal investment opportunity for those who want to secure their future home now by generating holiday let income across the year. The South Hams is one of Devon's prime leisure hotspots for both short-breaks and annual holidays, with many visitors driving down from London, the Home Counties and the South West. The Mill's proximity to the A38 at Buckfastleigh and its location on the River Dart will doubtless add a rental premium, as will Staverton Station and its seasonal steam trains. The Mill's leases have been designed to support a considered amount of rental traffic whilst acknowledging the requirements of residential owners.
