A self contained ground floor apartment within a substantial Victorian property of just 6 units offering, bright, spacious, tastefully modernised and versatile accommodation with breath taking frontline views across Woolacombe's famous sandy, surfing beach and across the beautiful bay. Conservatory/Dining Room, Sitting Room, Modern Kitchen/Breakfast Room, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms. Private courtyard/terrace, private parking. Well tended communal gardens. No upper chain. EPC Band D. Tender date 25/3 Leasehold. Council Tax Band E
Situation And Amenities - Enjoying quite simply what is an unrivalled position in front line Woolacombe with enviable 180-degree panoramic views over Woolacombe Bay, Baggy and Hartland Points, Lundy Island and the Atlantic ocean. The view is ever changing and also takes in a direct outlook over the golden sandy beach and surf as well as the commercial heart of Woolacombe with the scenic back drop of open countryside. We are advised by the vendors that from the terrace the sun sets are quite magnificent and binoculars are essential apparatus to monitor the various vistas. Woolacombe is famous for its 3 mile sandy beach between Baggy and Morte points, regularly receives blue flag and premier sea side beach awards, and has also become one of Devons premier surfing destinations. The village itself offers a range of shops, restaurants, bars and leisure activities and is surrounded by National Trust Land with a wide variety of trails and walks to enjoy. The equally well regarded villages of Croyde and Saunton are both located a short drive away, each offering further sandy beaches and in the case of Saunton a popular Championship golf course. Nearby Ilfracombe has an attractive harbour, Exmoor National Park and Lynton/Lynmouth, in dramatic coastal scenery, are easily accessible by car. North Devons main trading centre of Barnstaple is approximately 12 miles and offers a wide range of amenities and facilities one would associate with a large town including theatre and District Hospital. It also provides transport links on to the A361 (North Devon Link Road) which in turn connects to theM5 at Junction 27, where rail links to London (Paddington in about 2 hours) can be found at Tiverton Parkway.
Description - Having been within the same family ownership for 27 years, this self contained ground floor apartment, with totally private entrance, in turn off the private courtyard [both a rarity in Woolacombe], is within a substantial detached Victorian mansion which comprises 6 apartments in total and presents elevations of Marland brick with double glazed windows beneath a slate roof. Flat 1 offers bright, spacious, tastefully modernised, versatile and well presented accommodation from which the WOW' factor is definitely the fantastic sea view. There is a private outdoor terrace and parking for several vehicles, there are well tended communal gardens to the rear. Part of the apartment is single storey and therefore may offer potential for an extension above, subject to planning permission and lease considerations.
Special Note - We understand that the property is leasehold [999 years from 25/12/1988] but also has a 6th share in the freehold. The current service charge is approximately £1,400 per annum including a sinking fund, NO HOLIDAY LETTING IS ALLOWED however, as freeholders, the owners could over turn this policy by consensus but this is apparently unlikely at this juncture. We understand that pets are allowed.

About this agent

This includes an extensive stretch of coastline, as well as the Taw and Torridge Estuaries, which keeps the firm's Waterside Property Department extremely busy. North Devon is a wonderful place to live, work and visit. It is special for its people, its culture and its beautiful environment - most of it is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
