Riverside luxury in a sophisticated retreat where coastal charm meets modern comfort

The Gem, Appledore, is a luxurious five-bedroom holiday home nestled on the outskirts of charming Appledore village. The sophisticated kitchen area, part of an impressive open-plan living space, comes fully equipped to cater for large groups, featuring an electric oven and hob, along with a sleek breakfast bar for casual dining. The elegant living area creates an inviting atmosphere with sumptuous sofas arranged around a warming wood burner, while a Smart TV and magnificent windows frame delightful river views.

Step outside to discover multiple outdoor havens, including a first-floor balcony with sun loungers, a front patio featuring a luxurious hot tub, and an enclosed rear garden complete with lawn, summer house, and BBQ area. The property offers five beautifully appointed bedrooms: a first-floor super-king-size with en-suite wet room, and four ground-floor bedrooms including a king-size and double (both en-suite), plus two twins sharing a family bathroom. The garage houses entertainment options with a pool table and darts board, perfect for family game nights.

Imagine waking to the gentle sounds of the riverside, enjoying your morning coffee on the balcony while watching boats drift past, then planning the day's adventures with loved ones.
