Description

Welcome to Gerry’s Cottage, a stunning 2 bed cottage which was believed to have been constructed some 150 years ago for the stone masons who worked on the nearby All Saints Church. Set on a small elevated terrace (13 steps up from the road) in the heart of Brixham, Gerry’s Cottage is a stone’s throw from all that bustling Brixham has to offer.

The cottage is small but perfectly formed and has so many character quirks and unique features, as well as enjoying two very sunny and good sized outside areas. Upon entering the property, the lovely exposed wooden floorboards and wood burning stove sets the scene for the rest of the style of the cottage. Outside, the cottage benefits from a sunny and private garden full of mature shrubs and bushes. Why not enjoy your morning coffee in this suntrap

To the rear, a communal staircase accessed from both Gerry’s and the cottage next door, leads to the garden which is split into two level platforms. Climb up the 30 steps (most with handrail), and Gerry’s Cottage has the sole use of the very top garden with its limestone wall perimeter. The garden enjoys a lovely open outlook and takes in the church tower to the left, and the fields at Summercourt to the right.

Gerry's Cottage is located in a historic part of Brixham and close to Brixham's "Indie Street" - Middle Street, where you will find independent retails, artisan bakers, coffee shops and bistros and a variety of art and photography retailers. Gerry's Cottage is also within minutes of Brixham's town centre and bus station. The nearest train station is located 5 miles away in Paignton.

Famous for fishing, art and those colourful houses lining the harbour, Brixham is one of the busiest fishing ports in the UK and is home to some of the finest sea food you can think of, but it isn’t just about fishing. Brixham is also rife with art and culture and has several unique attractions suitable for the whole family.

Brixham is a great destination for art lovers, the town has a great range of art galleries that feature local artists as well as showcasing visiting installations. On the Strand, you’ll even have the opportunity to see artists working.

The town also boasts a museum and tours around the coast so you can get a real taste of its maritime heritage. Brixham is the home of the Golden Hind replica, a recreation of Sir Francis Drake’s flagship. Visitors can experience life on board and explore all five decks, it’s a great exhibition for kids learning about the Tudors or for adults who want to find out a bit more about the UK’s history.

Being a fishing port, you can expect a great choice of seafood restaurants with many independent, local establishments offering menus made from fresh local produce. It isn’t all fish though, Brixham’s restaurants and cafes are also supplied by an excellent selection of butchers and green grocers. You’ll be spoilt for choice!

For walkers, The South West Coast Path will take you as far as your legs will carry you, and entertaining the little ones couldn’t be easier with Paignton Zoo, The Dartmouth Steam Railway and Splashdown @ Quay West all within a short drive.
