Woolacombe

This attractive apartment occupies a front-line position directly on The Esplanade, offering wonderful views across Woolacombe beach to Putsborough, over to Morte Point and out to Lundy Island.

The well-planned accommodation is accessed via a communal hall with stairs or lift leading to the first floor. The apartment itself is arranged with entrance hall opening into the dual aspect open plan kitchen/living/dining room with sea views enjoyed from both the kitchen and living areas.

The master bedroom is also dual aspect and enjoys lovely sea views across the Bay complemented by an en-suite shower room. There is a second double bedroom, a good-sized, separate family bathroom and a useful store cupboard.

This spacious two-bedroom apartment is an excellent opportunity to acquire a "lock up and leave" holiday retreat, offered with the advantage of no onward chain. While there is a restriction prohibiting the property from being let as a holiday home or short-term rental, it would undoubtedly make for a very comfortable permanent residence or second home to enjoy this beautiful coastline.

The property is well-equipped for comfort and convenience, featuring UPVc double glazing, gas central heating, and a long lease, providing peace of mind for the prospective owner.
 
This property is one of six apartments within the well-maintained White Rose building. Each apartment, benefits from a dedicated parking space and access to additional visitor parking, and a communal drying area.

Location
The North Devon coastline was designated a World Surfing Reserve last year and will join California's Malibu and Santa Cruz and Australia's Golden Coast and Manly as some the world's best locations to go surfing. The award-winning Woolacombe Beach is widely recognised as one of the best beaches in the UK. Located on the North Devon coast, between Croyde and Ilfracombe, the 3-mile sandy beach is popular with surfers and families looking for a traditional seaside experience.

One visit here and you can easily see why. Not just because of its beautiful coastline and being a surfer's paradise but also its easy access to the wonderful National Trust land, with coastal walks and the other surfing beaches of Putsborough (at the other end of Woolacombe's surfing beach), Croyde and Saunton all within easy reach.

There is an interesting choice of shops, bars and restaurants in the village. Woolacombe is ideally positioned for investigating the surrounding coast and countryside - from the wild splendour of Exmoor to the natural wonders of Lundy Island, or the charm of the nearby villages of Mortehoe and Croyde.

There are many golf courses nearby for keen golfers, a 9 hole course at Mortehoe, 18 holes at Ilfracombe and the more experienced might like to take on the more challenging championship links courses at Saunton which is just twenty minutes away by car.

The regional centre of Barnstaple offers top high street names and independent stores/boutiques. There is also a leisure centre and indoor tennis centres, a branch line railway station and regional hospital. The A361 gives access to the M5 at Tiverton.

Continue along the B3343 towards the centre of Woolacombe. With The Barn on your left, turn right onto The Esplanade and travel for approximately 400 metres. White Rose can be found on the right hand side.
