This delightful purpose built apartment has very spacious and much larger than average accommodation and amounts to an impressive 103m2 (1,109ft2). The home is perfect for those looking for easy low-maintenance living including first time buyers, retired persons or as a buy-to-let investment or holiday home. The property is located in an elevated sunny location and enjoys excellent views over the town towards the Score Valley and countryside and out towards the Bristol Channel in the distance. Local amenities are within easy reach with the high street being just 1/2 a mile away and the picturesque sea front and harbour being within a mile. The Cairn Nature Reserve is pretty much on your doorstep and has meandering footpaths enjoying some delightful scenery. There is also the Tarka Trail Cycle Path which originates alongside the Cairn and traverses through the picturesque North Devon countryside and through neighbouring villages and towns.

The space within the property is the real highlight along with the property's own private area of garden which is rare to come by in an apartment. There isn't a small room! The space is immediately evident upon entering the property into the welcoming entrance hall which has a handy storage cupboard. The heart of the home is a large 21ft long lounge and dining room. Double doors open onto the privately owned rear garden allowing for a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The 16ft kitchen opens from the lounge and is well-equipped with a range of modern base and wall units, including a breakfast bar, perfect for morning coffee or informal dining. There are integrated appliances which include an oven, hob and extractor canopy, fridge and freezer and there is under-counter plumbing for a washing machine and a tumble/dryer. Double doors lead out onto a further courtyard area at which has an artificial lawn.

The bedrooms also don't compromise on size. Bedroom 1, measuring 21ft x 11'10" is very generously sized and has double doors out onto the rear garden. There is a recently refurbished modern en suite shower room which adds a great facility. Bedroom 2 is also particularly spacious and the family bathroom is also well-appointed with a Jacuzzi style bath and tiling.

Outside, at road level there is a parking area with an allocated off-road space for Apartment 3. The garden can be accessed via a recently refurbished external wooden staircase that leads down at the side of the building. The garden is a real feature of the property and is for the exclusive use of this apartment. There is a large patio/sitting area which stretches across the width of the building and which is directly accessible from the lounge as well as the main bedroom. This area is perfect for al fresco dining, barbecues, sun bathing and sitting out. There is ample space for storage sheds, planters etc as well. There is a further lower tier of garden which is laid to lawn with a wooden fenced boundary. The garden is a great asset and pet and child friendly. The delightful far reaching views can also be enjoyed from the garden.

This well-presented and spacious home with its excellent facilities represents an excellent opportunity in the current market and we fully advise an early internal inspection to fully appreciate the size and quality on offer.
