LOCATION
Dartmouth is a beautiful waterside town and is celebrated for its rich maritime heritage, being home to the Britannia Royal Naval College, the town is considered to be one of the jewels in Devons crown offering outstanding natural beauty and a vibrant year round community. Weeke Hill is a quiet residential road which rises from Warfleet, on the edge of town and heads towards Stoke Fleming. It’s a peaceful and rural setting with lovely views across the Valley and surrounding countryside.

The town centre, which can be reached on foot in under 10 minutes, offers a wonderful and varied selection of shops, boutiques, galleries, pubs and restaurants, including The Seahorse, which was recently named as ‘Best restaurant outside of London’ by the Food and Travel Reader Awards 2025. Dartmouth hosts several yearly festivals, including the Dartmouth Royal Regatta, Food Festival, Music Festival and Galleries Week. Alongside the traditional bakers, butcher and grocer, there are two supermarkets and an M&S Food Hall.

The town is well serviced with a new health and well-being centre, a cinema, a leisure centre and both indoor and outdoor swimming pools.

The River Dart, which flows from Dartmoor, through Totnes and out to sea at Dartmouth, is always a hive of activity, and as a deep-water port, attracts boats from all over the world.

Dartmouth lies within the South Hams and the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, an area famous for its stunning coastline with sandy beaches and hidden coves. The mainline train station at Totnes runs a regular service to London in just over 2.5 hours and the A38 (M5) is about 19 miles.

THE PROPERTY
Occupying an elevated position on Weeke Hill and enjoying delightful views across the surrounding countryside and valley, High Clere presents an exciting opportunity to create a wonderful family home, in a lovely location on the edge of town. In need of modernisation and refurbishment, this detached house sits in large gardens, and is situated within walking distance of Warfleet Creek, with its public slipway and scenic riverside walks leading to the castle and swimming coves beyond.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors. The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, a walk-in storage room, and a double bedroom with an en suite shower room, which is part finished and should be considered a work in progress!

A staircase rises to a galleried landing on the first floor, where the principal reception accommodation has been designed to make the most of the elevated position and far-reaching views, with an open plan dining hall and kitchen, including glazed doors opening onto the terrace. The dining hall leads through to the sitting room, which is a bright, double-aspect space with an open fireplace. There are three further double bedrooms on this floor, together with a family bathroom and separate cloakroom.

OUTSIDE
Outside, the property is approached by a driveway providing parking for several vehicles. The generous gardens are a particular feature, extending to National Trust land at the rear and offering a blank canvas to create something rather special.

DIRECTIONS (TQ6 0JT)
Proceed out of Dartmouth towards Dartmouth Castle (please note at the time of going to print the road is temporarily closed, so best to proceed on foot). Continue beyond the turning point to Dartmouth Castle, and follow the road uphill, where High Clere will be found a little further along on the right.

If arriving by car, follow the A379 towards Stoke Fleming from Dartmouth. After about a mile, take the second left towards Dartmouth Castle and continue downhill, where High Clere will be found on the left.
