Oceanside Apartments, Capstone Crescent, Ilfracombe, North Devon, EX34

A competitively priced and beautifully presented 3 bedroom apartment with simply stunning sea views, located just yards from the picturesque harbour area.

Located in one of Ilfracombe’s front line coastal positions and just yards away from the picturesque harbour area is this beautifully presented apartment. One of only a handful of three bedroom apartments within this location, Number 4 Oceanside is conveniently situated on the ground floor from the building entrance and, from the rear, is effectively a first-floor apartment.

‘Oceanside’ was converted into apartments approximately 20 years ago and has since benefited from a well-funded and professionally managed management company, helping to maintain the building to the excellent condition it enjoys today.

Undoubtedly, the property’s standout feature is its simply stunning rear-aspect views. Its prime front-line position allows you to relax in bed whilst listening to the waves crashing against the rocks below.

From the building’s front door there is an entry phone system, and once inside you are just a few steps from the apartment door. Once inside, there is a central hallway giving access to all rooms. There are three bedrooms in total, all of a good size, with one benefiting from an en-suite shower room. In addition, there is the main bathroom, while another bedroom enjoys some of the best views from the apartment. The living space is open plan with the kitchen and, once in this room, you are immediately drawn to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows looking directly out to sea. From here, a door gives access out onto a large balcony, offering ample space for a large table and chairs, perfect for al fresco dining and watching the sun go down with a glass of wine.

Agents Note: The property is shared freehold, which is vested within the management company (The Capstone Management Company LTD). There is the balance of the original 999-year lease commenced in 2007. The current maintenance charge is £175 per calendar month, which includes maintenance of the common internal and external areas. We understand both holiday letting and long-term letting are permitted within the building. Two domesticated pets are allowed with written permission from the management company.
