Apt 6 Holmesdale is a delightful and well-presented second floor apartment being one of 7 units in a well-kept building situated in a central and convenient location just a few hundred yards from the golden sand surfing beaches and the village amenities.

The apartment has the considerable benefit of its own private balcony at the side of the building which enjoys excellent views to the south across the golden sand beach and bay towards Baggy Point. There is also the use of an allocated off road parking space. At present the apartment is used as a second home and holiday let and has been very successful with good levels of income and many excellent comments from happy visitors. The furniture and fittings are available to purchase (subject to separate negotiation) making the apartment ready for immediate use.

Woolacombe sits on the North Devon Coast and is famous throughout the country and is popular with visitors from all around the U.K. There are a variety of small shops, bars, restaurants and cafes to suit all pockets as well as other leisure facilities. The village has an excellent OFSTED primary school as well as a medical centre and a variety of small independent shops, bars and restaurants to suit all pockets and tastes. The two and a half miles of award winning golden sand surfing beaches are Woolacombe's primary attraction, however, the village is surrounded by open National Trust Land which enjoys miles and miles of walking along meandering footpaths offering some breath-taking coastal scenery along the rugged North Devon coastline. For keen golfers, Saunton Sands Professional Golf Course is just a short drive away and has 2 Links courses and there are further smaller courses within Woolacombe at Easewell and nearby Willingcott. Barnstaple, which is North Devon's main trading centre, is approximately 14 miles away and has many of the big name shops, a rail link and direct access onto the A361 North Devon Link Road which joins the M5 at junction 27.

The apartment benefits from gas central heating and uPVC double glazing. An entrance lobby leads into the entrance hall which has a laminate floor and the security intercom/door entry system. There is a spacious, bright and airy double bedroom which has been fitted out with a range of quality built in furniture which includes 2 double and 1 single wardrobes together with a dressing table unit with 3 drawer pedestal under and additional corner fitted desk/TV shelf which includes a large storage cupboard under. There are also two matching 2 drawer bedside cabinets. There is a further shallow store cupboard ideal for the ironing board etc. The bedroom also has a laminate floor. Across the hallway there is the bathroom which comprises a white suite including a bath with shower and folding shower screen and curtain over, a low level wc with concealed cistern and a hand basin set in a vanity unit with cupboard under, mirrored recess, vanity light and shaver socket over. There are tiled walls and a heated towel rail.

The main heart of the home is the 22ft x 13ft living room and kitchen which has sliding doors at one end leading out on to the private balcony. The kitchen area has a range of fitted base and wall units and benefitting from integrated appliances including an oven, hob and extractor canopy, fridge and freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Again there is a laminate floor throughout the room.

Outside, Bay View Road is a private road owned by Bay View Road Management Ltd which is made up of the freehold residents that own the properties along the road. Within the road, there is a marked up and allocated parking space which apartment 6 enjoys the exclusive use of, as well as further visitors spaces for the shared benefit of the Holmesdale building. The apartment has its own private balcony which was a decked surface and wrought iron railings and is large enough for a small table and a couple of chairs. The balcony enjoys views towards the beach, the bay and Baggy Point. There is a further area of communal garden at the very rear of the building accessed via external steps at the right hand side of the block.
