Poughill Road, Bude, Cornwall, EX23

Commanding five-bedroom detached property | Outstanding sea views | Generous plot approaching 1/3 acre | Lovely versatile gardens | Walking distance to the beach and town | EPC Rating - D


DESCRIPTION
A superb prospect offered to the market for the first time in 45 years; this commanding home occupies an enviable, elevated position where outstanding views over both the sea and town can be enjoyed: this position alone is sure to entice strong interest.

Hillside boasts a generous plot approaching 1/3 of an acre with ample frontage creating a feeling of grandiosity on approach with parking for multiple vehicles, access to a detached garage and large well-maintained lawn. To the rear you find a lovely garden harmoniously divided into a productive allotment to the rear and well-manicured lawn in the forefront.

Throughout, you will find rooms of generous proportions and height all with splendid views either towards the sea or over the beautiful gardens. The ground floor briefly comprises an entrance porch and hallway, cloakroom, kitchen/breakfast room, drawing room, living room and dining room.

A turning staircase leads to the spacious first-floor landing providing access to four double bedrooms, a further single and two bathrooms. Once again, views can be enjoyed from all rooms, with the best vistas enjoyed from the box bay window in the master bedroom.

Although in need of some modernisation, this is a wonderful opportunity to be just the fourth owner of this special abode in its near 100-year history. The space and location offered is rarely matched.

LOCATION
The property lies on the fringe of the sought after village of Poughill with its well respected pub The Preston Gate and lies only a short walk from the coastal resort of Bude.

At Exeter there is access to the M5 motorway network, mainline railway station serving London Paddington and well respected international airport. There is an additional airport at Newquay some 28 miles to the south of the property and the market town of Barnstaple can be found some 25 miles to the north along the A39.
