Description

Situated in a very enviable beach front location just metres from the award winning golden sand surfing beaches is this newly converted, spacious and beautifully finished ground floor apartment which enjoys superb views to the south and west over Woolacombe Bay taking in the beaches, Potters Hill, Baggy and Hartland Points and the Atlantic Ocean. The property is perfect for those looking for a high quality beachside retreat and is ideal as a permanent home or alternatively as a second home or holiday let. Beachside is part of the Hartland House development but has its own private facilities and front door. The apartment is low maintenance and has uPVC double glazed windows and doors and benefits from gas fired central heating via a modern combination boiler.

Ideally situated, the property is literally just a couple hundred metres from the village centre shops and restaurants and literally 'across the road' from 2 1/2 miles of golden sand that stretch across to Putsborough.

Woolacombe sits on the rugged North Devon Coast and amidst the surrounding National Trust land and is an extremely popular and well known village throughout the UK primarily due to its stunning beach which has previously held the accolade as the No. 1 beach in the country by Trip Advisor. Many, many visitors flock to the area throughout the year but especially through the busy summer months. The village has an array of facilities which include a variety of small independent shops, a selection of cafes, bars and restaurants to suit all pockets and tastes, a health centre, chemist and a Primary School which has an 'outstanding' rating from Ofsted. As well as main stretch of golden sand, there is also Barricane and Combesgate beaches which have rock pools to explore and the former having a beachside kiosk selling delicious Sri Lankan curries through the summer season. The surrounding National Trust Land provides miles and miles of walking enjoying some of the finest coastal scenery on offer. There are a variety of leisure facilities and excellent nearby golf courses with the best known being the two links courses at Saunton, one of which is at championship standard.

Barnstaple is North Devon's main trading centre and is approximately 12 miles away and has many of the bigger name shops, a rail link and gives direct access on the main A361 North Devon Link Road which joins the M5 at junction 27. Ilfracombe is just a short drive along the coast, approximately 5 miles away and has plenty of coastal charm and a picturesque harbour which is home to world renowned artist Damien Hirst's 60ft high bronze 'Verity' statue. The Cathedral city of Exeter is approximately 50 miles away and has direct rail links to main stations in London.

The accommodation has a sleek contemporary design and feel. The entrance leads in to the 20ft x 16ft living room and kitchen area which has a large bay window with a sunny southerly aspect enjoying the most wonderful far reaching views directly along the golden sand beach, Potters Hill and the sand dunes across to Putsborough, Baggy and Hartland Points and the Atlantic Ocean. There is a useful cloak/store cupboard ideal for the vacuum cleaner, ironing board etc and a contemporary vinyl tiled floor stretches throughout the room. The kitchen comprises a range of high gloss base and wall units complimented by slate style composite work surfaces and with integrated Zanussi appliances which include a hob with extractor hood over and oven under, a fridge/freezer and dishwasher.

The white suite comprises a large walk-in shower cubicle with rain drop head shower and additional shower wand. There is a low level wc and hand basin with an illuminated mist free mirror and integrated shaver point over. The suite is complemented by contemporary tiling.

The double bedroom has a built in wardrobe and the en suite shower has identical fittings to shower room mentioned above.

There is also a further large sea facing terrace which will be for the exclusive use of Beachside.

Hartland House also has its own additional communal gardens which are located on the opposite side of the building. The gardens comprise attractive paved and terraced sitting areas which are for the use of all of the apartments within the development. These gardens also enjoy a sunny southerly aspect and the superb and far reaching views across the village, the countryside and Potters Hill, the golden sand beach and towards Baggy and Hartland Points and the Atlantic Ocean.

Beachside is a fantastic apartment ideal as a low maintenance beachside retreat in a great location close to all of the local amenities.
