Description

Just a few minutes from the shoreline of Widemouth Bay, this generous coastal home offers space, character and a wonderfully laid-back lifestyle. If you’ve been searching for somewhere that feels private, peaceful and only a short wander to the beach, this property ticks every box.

Originally built in the 1920s and believed to be one of the earliest homes in the area, the house blends its original charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Throughout the property you’ll find details that give it real personality, oak flooring, handcrafted doors, and classic Cornish flagstones paired with clean, contemporary décor.

The entrance is via a timber porch, perfect for dropping off sandy shoes and beach gear. From here, a wide hallway leads you through the heart of the home. The layout offers fantastic versatility, with three main living areas:

• a sociable open-plan kitchen/dining/living space ideal for day-to-day family life,

• a cosy sitting room complete with a log burner,

• a bright additional reception room that opens directly onto the garden.
Upstairs, the four bedrooms feel airy and inviting, with three enjoying partial sea or coastal outlooks. One bedroom benefits from a private walk-on balcony—a peaceful spot where you can enjoy morning sun or watch the colours of the sunset in the evening.

With around 2,300 sq ft of accommodation, the property works beautifully as a permanent family home, a relaxing bolthole by the sea or a high-end holiday let. Lapsed planning permission had previously been granted for an enlarged open-plan kitchen, leaving the door open for future enhancement should the next owner wish to explore it.

The house sits within approximately ¼ acre of private, enclosed gardens. There’s an abundance of level lawn, tucked-away areas for outdoor dining, and both hot and cold external showers for easy post-beach living. A wide gravelled driveway offers excellent parking and features a useful timber outbuilding, with potential to add a garage or create a second access point from the lane (subject to consent).

Location & Directions

Approach from Bude via the coastal road to Widemouth Bay. As you enter the village, turn left onto Leverlake Road, then take the second right into Combe Lane. The property can be found shortly along on the left-hand side.

Just a few minutes’ walk from the wide sandy beach at Widemouth Bay, this charming 1920s home offers around 2,300 sq ft of generous coastal living in one of North Cornwall’s most desirable seaside villages. The location is exceptional—cafés, a surf school, beachside eateries and the South West Coast Path are all on the doorstep, while Bude’s supermarkets, restaurants, schools, sports facilities and community services are just a short drive away. Set within a private ¼-acre plot, the home combines period character with flexible family spaces and proven holiday-let appeal, making it a fantastic full-time residence, second home or coastal escape.

About Pilkington Estates, Stoke

Harscombe House 1Darklake View, Plymouth, PL6 7TL

Buying and selling property is both an art and a science. In the 21st century, the world of estate agency has blossomed in the digital environment, leaving many traditional firms left standing, eyeing the technology with confusion and suspicion rather than embracing it. The team at Pilkington Estates are digital natives, embracing everything the modern world has to offer to help present your home in the best possible light, and using technology to get the right message to the right buyer at the right time.

This contemporary, no nonsense approach is balanced by a sensitivity and empathy towards their customers, both buyers and sellers, that allows us to offer a truly one to one bespoke service.

We understand that every customer is different, and each client has different needs and requirements, so will customise any modern method of selling to suit individual requirements.

Whether you are an old hand with multiple sales under your belt, or whether you are selling a much loved family home for the first time, Pilkington Estates are careful to hand hold you through the process as much or as little as you need.

We can help keep your house hunting enthusiasm burning with intelligent recommendations or can take the strain of the entire relocation process by doing all the running around that you are too busy to do.

We sit comfortably in this fast-paced world, understanding your need for urgency. We bring an energy and confidence to the whole buying and selling process that will get the job done without the drama.

This is not an agency that likes to sit around waiting for the phone to ring!
