Hope Cove, Kingsbridge

The Property:

A versatile 3-4 bedroom detached bungalow, ideally situated within walking distance of Hope Cove's picturesque beaches, Spring Ridge offers exceptional flexibility with its current layout. Divided into two sections, a main residence for owners and a holiday let (or vice versa), the property has a wealth of potential, whether as a coastal home, an income-generating investment or both.

Main Residence

Enter through a welcoming hallway leading into an open-plan living area. The reception room is spacious, with a dual-aspect that includes a large bay window offering delightful countryside views and sea glimpses to the side.

This bright and airy room flows seamlessly into a modern, well-equipped kitchen featuring ample work surfaces, an integrated sink and drainer, and an electric oven with hob and extractor. There is space for a fridge-freezer and provisions for both a washing machine and dishwasher.

The inner hallway leads to a convenient shower room, complete with corner shower cubicle and hand wash basin, as well as a separate WC.

Two cosy double bedrooms are positioned at the front and rear of the property. 

Holiday Annex  

Connected via a lockable door, the annex has recently been configured as a contemporary studio. It includes a compact kitchenette, an en-suite shower room, and access to a conservatory with lovely views. This space could easily be reconverted to create additional bedrooms or one spacious master suite if desired.

Gardens and Outdoor Space

The property boasts a raised lawn at the front, perfectly positioned for sunshine, with space for outdoor seating. The front elevation benefits from a bright and sunny outlook, creating a warm and inviting ambiance.

The rear garden is currently divided into two sections: a fully enclosed paved area with raised beds and a gravelled section. These could easily be merged to form one large, unified garden area. Additionally, there is a driveway providing parking for one vehicle, with further off-road parking available. A garage with power, lighting, and an up-and-over door completes the offering.

Additional Information & Extra Features

The property benefits from double glazing throughout and is heated with oil-filled electric heaters. Built of Woolaway construction, buyers should seek mortgage advice as some lenders may have specific criteria for this type of property. It has recently had a 4-stage upgrading of the exterior render and all exterior doors have been upgraded in the last 3 years.

Spring Ridge benefits from 4kW of solar panels that currently produce a tax free income of £3000 a year. A new inverter and battery were also installed in 2023 making the bungalow very economical to run.

Whether you’re seeking a second home in Hope Cove or exploring a holiday let investment, Spring Ridge offers boundless potential.
