Lincombe, Lee

Built in 1972, this lovely property has been impeccably maintained and boasts a spacious conservatory, that captures the beauty of the surrounding countryside. Lawned foregardens with mature trees and shrubs lead around the side of the bungalow to the rear terrace and up to the lawned gardens which abutt the fields behind.

The bungalow has a well-designed layout featuring a spacious conservatory-style dining room, sitting room, and an open-plan kitchen/dining area. All three seamlessly connected rooms make entertaining a delight, with French doors offering access to the rear patio.

The well-equipped kitchen/dining area also grants entry to the second en-suite bedroom, which opens up to the patio, perfect for enjoying the outdoors. Additionally, the property offers a versatile reception room, currently utilised as a living room, but previously arranged as a fourth bedroom which could provide en-suite facilities.

The master bedroom overlooks the picturesque fields and countryside to the south, while another bedroom and separate shower room round off the accommodation.

High Banks has a lawned foregarden and is accessed via a tarmac driveway leading to a single garage. A path to the side leads to terraced, gravelled beds and a large rear terrace, ideal for outdoor entertaining. The lawned gardens abutt fields to the rear and are completed with a delightful sun terrace.

Location
The small hamlet of Lincombe sits just above the coastal village of Lee Bay which is renowned for its kayaking, fishing and spear-fishing, and offers a wonderfully secluded hidden gem of a beach which can only be accessed when the tide is right and which is a firm favourite with the locals in the summer!

Those seeking surfing beaches have only a short drive to reach the 3 mile golden sands of Woolacombe & Putsborough and a little further those of Croyde and Saunton. Spending the day surfing the waves on these very popular beaches and being able to retreat from the hubble bubble, through fuchsia lined lanes, to this scenic village is considered the icing on the cake for many.

The nearby larger village of Braunton provides a wide range of local amenities to include post office, health centre, three primary schools, senior school, pubs, restaurants, library and a range of shops.

North Devon's regional centre of Barnstaple is about 14 miles and houses the area's main business commercial, entertainment and shopping venues. With a fabulous mix of Victorian & Georgian architecture along with an extensive range of both business & leisure facilities, banks & post office.

The North Devon link road can be accessed at Barnstaple and provides the link to the M5 at Tiverton, junction 27. Tiverton Parkway railway station has regular mainline services to London Paddington in just over 2 hours.
