Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 2 Bedrooms
  • Prime location on Breakwater Road
  • Garden
  • Garage
  • No chain
16b is a highly unusual attached property, located to the rear of the highly popular Breakwater Road, just few steps, via the sea lock gates, to Summerleaze beach, the historic Breakwater and sea pool.

Attached to the rear of 16a, this house has a pedestrian right of way to access its front door.

Parking is only available in the nearby garage, located just a little way up the road.

One of the key selling factors is the elevated garden. Steps lead up from the utility/porch to a sun trap patio with a lawn beyond where glimpses of the canal, town and sand dunes can be enjoyed. There is a door from the first-floor bedroom that also leads out to the rear garden.

Internally, there is useful utility/porch, ideal for storage, with a modern kitchen and living room on the ground floor. Stairs lead up to a landing area, providing access to the 2 bedrooms and bathroom.

Modern electric heaters provide warmth.

LOCATION
One of the principal selling points is the lifestyle the location affords. Leave the car behind as you walk along Breakwater Road, which runs besides the Bude canal, which was completed in 1823. You cross over the sea lock gates (the only ones in England) onto the expansive, sandy Summerleaze Beach - you can bathe safely in the sea all year-round, even when the tide is out, in Bude’s free Sea Pool. Built 90 years ago it is the largest sea pool in Cornwall, and gets refreshed with every high tide. The Breakwater (built in 1843) provides a safe anchorage, hence the original name Budehaven. From here you can walk along the rugged cliffs of the north Cornish coastal path and if you are adventurous you can walk to Widemouth Bay, the popular surfing beach, or north over the downs to Crooklets beach and, further along, Northcott Mouth and the National Trust owned Sandymouth beach.

Bude has a wide range of commercial, educational and recreational facilities and lies alongside the main A39 Atlantic Highway creating good access to the south to Newquay and its airport and north, via the towns of Bideford and Barnstaple, to the north Devon link road leading to the M5, Bristol and beyond.

We have 16 West Country offices for residential sales & lettings in North Devon, West Somerset, Exmoor and Cornwall.

In addition, with specialist departments for Commercial Property, Survey & Professional and New Homes, we deliver a comprehensive property service, with an enviable reputation as professionals in property. Bude is a popular coastal resort located on the North Cornish coast, nearing the very northerly border of Cornwall into Devon.  This part of the coastline is extremely rugged with very high cliff tops and tucked away coves.  The best known beach in the area is Widemouth Bay, just to the south of Bude, which is a lovely sandy beach ideal for surfing.  There are two sandy beaches within very easy reach of the town centre called Crooklets and Summerleaze respectively. Bude has a historic past with the Canal and lock gates being an important part of the heritage of the town along with Bude Castle which is now a gallery, museum and restaurant.  The canal side has just been rejuvenated with new businesses opening and the town's library is also located there.  Bude was a prosperous Victorian seaside resort with the trains and canal providing access to and from Exeter.  Bude still is a town by the sea rather than a seaside resort, so although we do have a busy tourist period, the town remains vibrant with many things to do for all age groups throughout the year.
