Description
Nestled in the hillside of the dramatic unspoilt North Exmoor coastline, is this unique detached dwelling enjoying spectacular scenic views, set amongst a haven of nature and wildlife. The Old Coach House occupies a quiet, peaceful and private location set down its own driveway which meanders through the established woodland.
As the name suggest this former Victorian Coach House originally formed part of the Woody Bay Hotel and was subsequently converted and later extended to provide spacious character accommodation. Steeped in established woodland the ground extends, in all, to approx. 2.28 acres with levelled lawned garden areas which adjoins the dwelling with pretty stream border.
Sea views are enjoyed from the front elevation of the accommodation. The ground floor provides; an entrance conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, a study/ground floor bedroom and a large sitting room featuring a woodburning stove. The main landing leads to four good sized bedrooms and two bathrooms. A secondary staircase leads to a further fifth bedroom with adjoining shower room, providing ideal guest accommodation or dual occupancy needs. Adjoining the conservatory is a useful utility room/store.
For layout and approximate room measurements please see the enclosed Floorplan and refer to the Virtual Tour.
