Description
Island View, Abbotsham – A Captivating Coastal Sanctuary
Nestled in the heart of the ever-desirable village of Abbotsham, where country charm meets coastal beauty, Island View is a truly enchanting four-bedroom detached home, commanding breath-taking views across rolling countryside to the sparkling North Devon coast. Just a short stroll from the welcoming village pub and highly regarded primary school, this beautifully bespoke residence is an exceptional find, where peace, privacy and panoramic vistas come together in perfect harmony.
Individually designed and built in 2005, Island View occupies an elevated position that makes the most of its stunning outlook, offering views stretching all the way to Lundy Island. From the moment you arrive, the home radiates a sense of quiet elegance and thoughtful craftsmanship, this is not just a property, but a lifestyle.
A wooden gate opens to a generous, landscaped driveway, bordered by mature shrubs and flowering borders, with ample parking and access to an integral garage fitted with electric up-and-over doors. Step inside, and you’re greeted by a wide, light-filled entrance hall, dressed in warm oak flooring that runs throughout the ground floor, a welcoming prelude to the comfort and refinement within.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the triple-aspect kitchen and dining room, a radiant, sociable space that celebrates natural light and relaxed living. Grey flagstone flooring, a bespoke wooden kitchen with granite island, and a statement Intu boiling water tap over a composite sink bring together practicality and rustic charm. With ample space for a family dining table, this is a space made for gathering, celebrating, and enjoying the everyday in style.
Double doors open into a wonderfully inviting living room, centred around a striking wood-burning stove. Built-in alcove shelving and cabinetry add character and function, while bifold doors spill out onto an expansive deck, ideal for summer soirées, morning coffee, or lazy afternoons soaking in the serenity of the setting.
Upstairs, an oak staircase sweeps you to a vaulted gallery landing, where floor-to-ceiling glazing draws in jaw-dropping views across the valley and out to sea. Step onto the private balcony and breathe in the fresh Devon air as the sun sets in a blaze of colour or stars glitter in the famously dark night skies, this is a place to pause, dream, and feel truly at home.
The master suite is a sanctuary in itself, with its own dressing room, en-suite bathroom, and a Juliet balcony overlooking countryside that seems to go on forever. Bedrooms two and three are equally generous, with high ceilings, skylights, and private en-suite or light-filled spaces, while bedroom four is a versatile double with lovely dual-aspect windows. The stylish family bathroom completes the first floor, offering a peaceful retreat for a relaxing soak at the end of the day.
Outside, the magic continues. The rear garden is a lush, enclosed haven, mature trees and flower beds wrap around a gently winding brick path, leading to quiet seating areas and a spacious deck, perfect for al-fresco dining under the stars. A garden room with wide patio doors offers a beautiful, flexible space, be it a home office, art studio, or a serene hideaway, accompanied by a handy storage area.
Island View also benefits from a wealth of eco-conscious features, including solar panels (front and rear) delivering 9.67 Kwh of peak power, linked to an impressive 19.2Kwh battery storage system. An electric vehicle charging point is fitted on the drive, and the air source heat pump and recently upgraded windows ensure year-round comfort and energy efficiency, all while reducing your carbon footprint.
In every sense, Island View is a rare gem, a modern yet timeless home that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and embrace the natural beauty of this extraordinary part of North Devon. Whether you're drawn by the coastline, the countryside, or the community, this is a home that will capture your heart.
