much more than a "stone's throw" away from the town centre,
promenade, local park and the mainline railway station.
Teignmouth is positioned on the lovely South Devon coastline,
approximately 13 miles from the cathedral city and county
town of Exeter. There is a fine promenade with sandy
beaches, including a classic crescent of imposing Georgian
buildings. There are boating opportunities on the estuary and
the "back beach" has a selection of pubs and restaurants in a
superb marine setting. The town has a wide variety of
independent shops and cafes, along with several excellent
public houses. There is a supermarket on the west side of the
town, along with a recently opened theatre and bowling club
close to the sea front. Teignmouth has several primary
schools, along with a well-regarded secondary
school/Community College, and Trinity School, being a private
school offering both primary and secondary education. There
is a mainline railway station offering a direct link to London
Paddington. The junction to the A380 via the B3192 is just
under 5-miles away, which can be used to access the A38
and the M5, offering an easy commute to Exeter and beyond.
DESCRIPTION
2 Glendaragh Road is a particularly lovely town house-style
property having formerly been a guest house. The beautiful
façade with brick elevations beneath a slate roof and the

beautifully and sympathetically refurbished in recent years
with exquisite detailing throughout, to include stunning Farrow
and Ball colour schemes, period door furniture and light
switches and wonderful period fireplaces. The extensive
accommodation is arranged over three storeys, and the rooms
at the front of the house benefit from particularly stunning
views across parts of the town towards the sea and across
Labrador bay towards Babbacome and the Orestone. At

tiling and a welcoming reception hall. At ground floor level
