Situation - Positioned in a private and elevated location, enjoying some of the best coastal views on the North Devon Coast, with stunning views and sunsets over Westward Ho! across the Northam Burrows to the Taw and Torridge estuary, Saunton Sands and out towards the Atlantic Ocean, with Lundy island visible in the distance.

The Northam Burrows Country Park is under a mile away affording excellent walks along with Northam village and Westward Ho! beach all within walking distance. The village of Northam benefits from an excellent range of amenities including Post Office, small supermarket, pubs, restaurants, church, primary school, library, health and dental centre, swimming pool and gym. Appledore which is a short drive away is a quaint fishing village renowned for its historic quayside and intertwining cobbled streets with a range of amenities including a public slipway, cafes, restaurants, Post Office/ delicatessen, galleries, pubs, a hotel and a primary school. Westward Ho! village is within walking distance and is a popular seaside tourist destination all year round with a further and wider range of diverse and popular Italian, Thai and Moroccan restaurants. The South West Coast Path, popular with walkers, gives stunning vistas of the rugged North Devon coastline and is within easy reach.

The port and market town of Bideford sits on the banks of the River Torridge and has a wider range of amenities including banks, butchers, various shops, pubs and restaurants, places of worship, schooling for all ages (public and private) and five supermarkets. The North Devon Golf Club is also close by, reputed to be the oldest links course in England. The regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 11 miles away and offers all the area's main business, motorway access, train station, shopping and commercial venues. The North Devon Link Road is easily accessible with Tiverton around 50 minutes, Tiverton Parkway offers a fast service of trains to London Paddington in a further 2 hours and Exeter is about 32 miles away.

Description - Woodlands is a substantial and totally unique detached property boasting stunning sea views, set in private and attractive landscaped gardens and grounds of approximately 0.80 acres. The versatile and very well-presented accommodation is arranged over three storeys and is currently arranged with the bedrooms on the top floor, the living space on the middle floor and hobbies and utility space on the lower floor, we envisage this space could have potential to convert into a separate annexe, office space, studio, gym, Airbnb etc. In terms of location the property is almost hidden and is approached via a 'no through' private road with a sweeping drive with gates opening to a large parking area and access to the gardens, lower floor living space and to the integral garage. Being offered with no onward chain.

Accommodation - The front door opens into the spacious main entrance hall, which includes engineered oak flooring, a cloakroom, a deep coat closet, a door to the back garden and stairs to the remaining two levels of the home. To the front is the fantastic dual aspect sitting room which has a large bay window making the most of those stunning views along with a woodburning stove on a slate hearth. There is an additional reception room on this level which is currently used as an office/bedroom. At the end of the hall is the impressive kitchen/dining room which includes the engineered oak flooring throughout and is fitted with a range of bespoke wooden units with granite worktops, double bowl Belfast sink and integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer. There is also a central island unit with storage under and a Falcon range with induction hob and double ovens, this whole area opens to the fantastic dining room with vaulted ceiling, coastal views and double doors which open to the west facing level garden. A perfect space for entertaining and alfresco dining.

On the top floor are four double bedrooms which all benefit from the fine views on offer. The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room. There is also a stylish contemporary family bathroom which includes a double-ended free-standing bath and a separate enclosed shower.

The lower floor includes a large utility room with fitted storage and space for white goods, separate pantry/boot room. Adjacent to this is a very versatile room currently used as a craft room but could be used as an additional bedroom/office. There is a door to the front driveway as well as a door to the garage which includes a WC. Because of the separate access from the front we envisage this space could be ideal for anyone looking for an annex/ dual occupation, office/business space, studio, gym or Airbnb, (subject to necessary planning permission)

Outside - The house sits on approximately .80 of an acre of well-tended gardens which include an assortment of well-established trees, shrubs and plants giving a sense of complete privacy and seclusion. The gardens are almost in 'sections' and surround the property, there is a large area of lawn to one side with a decked terrace and water feature, a superb place to sit and admire the wonderful views. On the other side of the house is a secluded and level west-facing lawn also with decked terrace and views. To the rear of the property there are paths leading up to the top with 'hidden' spots to admire the views. To the front is a large gravelled area with wooden "beach house" with electricity connected; a peaceful area to view the stunning sunsets. Large parking area with space for a number of vehicles, motorhome, boat etc.

Services - All mains connected. Gas central heating. Honeywell individual room control for heating.
