Poundfield Lane, Stratton, Bude, Cornwall, EX23

NO CHAIN – Nestled in the picturesque village of Stratton, near the town of Bude, famed for its sandy beaches, this charming home offers an idyllic escape with breath-taking views of the village, the valley and its wildlife and modern comfort throughout, with mains gas central heating and a new slate roof which was completely renewed in 2024. Positioned within walking distance of minor injury hospital/doctors surgery, schools and village shop, this is a must see home.

The new slate roof has just been completed (October 24) and comes with a 10 year guarantee from a well-known local firm. The new EPC is now 2 bands higher (as it has moved from a rating of D to a B) making the property much more economical to run and has vastly improved the external appearance.

Our clients have taken advantage of the fantastic views by building on a UPVC double glazed conservatory which enjoys 180° views over the valley, with the river below which entices plenty of wildlife, parts of the village and its church in the distance, with a composite balcony situated off ideal for leisurely breakfast overlooking the views.

The views are also enjoyed from the dining room, kitchen and master bedroom suite on the first floor, as well as from the rear patio garden. Whilst building on the conservatory our clients have made use of the lower ground floor area to provide an art studio. This is in addition to the original workshop, which has power and light, and this houses the boiler which supplies the mains gas fired central heating system throughout the property, with both areas forming excellent storage beneath the property.

There is an integral garage, with a recently renewed automatic roller door, PV panels are installed and owned by our clients, and other improvements include a superb kitchen with built in appliances, including the fridge/freezer, with quality flooring through the kitchen and dining room, which benefits from underfloor heating, and is an ideal for culinary adventures or as a relaxed entertaining space.

The driveway is bordered by a lawn garden with colourful flower beds and a sunken, resin patio area to enjoy the best of the afternoon sun. Steps to the side of the property lead to the low maintenance patio garden to the rear, which features raised beds, easy access to the art studio and workshop and still has the benefit of those wonderful views.

Internally the accommodation is very well presented and is flooded with natural light throughout. It comprises a welcoming entrance hall with the original wood floor and open tread staircase to the first floor, with access to the rest of the accommodation. This includes; the living room with a Gas Fire (Mains), a dining room, a kitchen, a ground floor bathroom and two well- proportioned double bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes. To the first floor there is a shower room/WC and a master bedroom with great views over the valley to the village beyond.
