SITUATION AND DESCRIPITON
Thurlestone is a popular village with its own primary school, general stores, pub and church, but it is most famous for its fine 18 hole links golf course, its sandy beaches and beautiful walks along the South Devon coastal path. The
parish takes its name from the big rock arch jutting up from the sea off Thurlestone Sands. Thorl in Anglo Saxon meant a nostril or a hole and Stan was a stone, so the name appears in the Domesday Book as Thorlestan.
The nearby market town of Kingsbridge provides a good range of shops, a health centre, leisure centre with indoor swimming pool, library, schools and churches.

An opportunity to purchase, a four bedroom detached reverse level family new home, currently in the course of construction. The current plans are for a four bedroom detached property to include a spacious living dining area and a separate kitchen/breakfast room, both having direct access to a first floor terrace providing views over surrounding countryside. There are a number of options available to purchasing this property.
The property is being constructed by Southern Properties, a Westcountry based development firm with other, successful developments across Devon and Cornwall. The property will be of traditional construction with rendered and painted external elevations, offset by some cedar cladding, beneath a natural slate roof. All external window and door frames will be in marine-grade powder coated aluminium and heating is by way of an air-sourced heat pump with underfloor heating throughout augmented by a wood burner in the living room.
The accommodation, which will extend to over 3,000 sq ft (inc garage) will be finished to the highest of standards with generous pc sums for the kitchen and bathrooms/tiles (Laufen goods, or similar). A full specification is available for interested parties upon request and the buyer will be able to have an input on certain decisions, assuming that the build process dictates that this is possible.Particular features of the accommodation will be the 18′ kitchen/family dining room with an extensive, South-facing terrace off and the 36′ dual-aspect living room/dining room with picture window to the front and access to the 21′ music room off, ideal for many uses.The bedrooms are located on the lower ground floor – with both the master and guests suite having their own facilities as are the study and utility room, which will have a Belfast sink. Externally, the house will be approached via a timber entrance gate and over a part-tarmac, part-grasscrete drive which will provide additional parking and access to the integral double garage, which will have electric doors. The gardens will be turfed upon completion.The position of the property will be a further attraction to many buyers, in particular ornithologists, being immediately adjacent to South Milton Ley. Extending to around 40 acres, The Ley was notified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest in the mid 1970s and is now a veritable haven for all manner of bird life.
