Cliff Road

Tucked quietly within one of Paignton’s most charming and sought-after pockets, just moments from the ever-picturesque Roundham Harbour, lies a property that feels as though it belongs to another time. This beautifully presented two-bedroom fisherman’s cottage know as Compass cottage is not simply a house—it is a place where history, character, and coastal living intertwine to create something truly special. The location couldn’t be more ideal. While peacefully tucked away, you remain within easy walking distance of Paignton’s town centre, local shops, cafés, and essential amenities. For those drawn to the outdoors, the nearby coastal path offers endless opportunities—whether it’s an early morning jog, a scenic dog walk, or an evening spent watching the sun melt into the horizon. In a market where many homes feel similar, this fisherman’s cottage stands apart. It offers not just space, but soul. Not just location, but lifestyle.
Opportunities like this rarely come to the market, particularly in such a desirable setting. Early viewing is highly recommended—because homes like this, with charm, flexibility, and a location to match, rarely stay available for long.

Lounge / Diner
Stepping through the front door, the cottage begins to reveal its story. The lounge greets you first—a warm and inviting space that immediately feels like home. The lounge & diner is a room where winter nights become something to look forward to, where soft lighting sets the tone for comfort and calm. There’s a natural flow from the lounge into the adjoining dining area, a space designed for connection. Whether hosting friends for dinner or enjoying a quiet breakfast, this room provides a comforting setting to gather, reflect, and simply enjoy the moment. It’s easy to imagine laughter echoing here, conversations stretching late into the evening, or peaceful afternoons spent with a book and a cup of tea.

Kitchen
The fitted kitchen continues the balance between traditional charm and modern practicality. Equipped with built-in appliances, it offers all the conveniences needed for contemporary living while maintaining the character expected of a home of this nature. It’s a space that feels both functional and inviting—whether preparing quick weekday meals or taking the time to cook something special for loved ones.

Bathroom
Also located on the ground floor is the family bathroom, thoughtfully positioned to serve the home with ease. Practical yet in keeping with the overall feel of the cottage, it ensures day-to-day living remains seamless and comfortable.

Bedrooms
Upstairs, the property offers two generous double bedrooms, each filled with character and charm. These rooms tell a story of the cottage’s past, showcasing original features that bring warmth and authenticity to the space. Interestingly, the property was once configured as a three-bedroom home. The current owners have chosen to reimagine the layout, combining rooms to create two larger, more spacious bedrooms. This thoughtful alteration enhances comfort and usability; however, for those seeking additional accommodation, the option remains to revert it back to three bedrooms if desired—offering valuable flexibility for future owners.

Outside
Outside, the cottage continues to impress. A private courtyard garden awaits—a hidden sanctuary that feels worlds away from the bustle of everyday life. This tranquil space is perfect for enjoying a morning coffee in the sun, unwinding after a long day, or entertaining on a warm summer evening. It’s low maintenance yet full of potential, allowing new owners to create their own peaceful retreat. Large outside deck with surrounding railings.
