Situated in a prime location and enjoying fantastic views from its elevated position, this first floor apartment sits within just 6 apartments developed in 2006 from a former hotel and enjoys fantastic sea and countryside views.

The generous 15' x 9' south facing balcony is a great place to sit and soak up the sunshine whilst looking out over the village, bay and out to the Atlantic Ocean & Lundy Island. The outlook to Challacombe Hill also provides lovely views of the ever changing countryside.

The open plan and well equipped kitchen, dining, and living room are designed to be open and bright, creating an inviting ambiance for entertaining and relaxing.

The two bedrooms, one of which features an en-suite shower, are of a generous size and are positioned to the rear of the apartment. A family bathroom, storage cupboard and useful loft access complete the accommodation.

To the front of the property there is parking for one vehicle together with a purpose built bin store. To the rear of the property there are a further 3 visitors parking spaces, ensuring convenience for residents and guests. Here there is also purpose built storage with one surfboard storage area allocated per apartment.

Location
The North Devon coastline was designated a World Surfing Reserve last year and will join California's Malibu and Santa Cruise and Australia's Golden Coast and Manly as some the world's best locations to go surfing. The award-winning Woolacombe Beach is widely recognised as one of the best beaches in the UK. Located on the North Devon coast, between Croyde and Ilfracombe, the 3-mile sandy beach is popular with surfers and families looking for a traditional seaside experience.

One visit here and you can easily see why. Not just because of its beautiful coastline and being a surfers paradise but also its easy access to the wonderful National Trust land, with coastal walks and the other surfing beaches of Putsborough (at the other end of Woolacombe's surfing beach), Croyde and Saunton all within easy reach.

There is an interesting choice of shops, bars and restaurants in the village. Woolacombe is ideally positioned for investigating the surrounding coast and countryside - from the wild splendour of Exmoor to the natural wonders of Lundy Island, or the charm of the nearby villages of Mortehoe and Croyde.

There are many golf courses nearby for keen golfers, a 9m hole course at Mortehoe, 18 holes at Ilfracombe and the more expierienced might like to take on the more challenging championship links courses at Saunton which is just twenty minutes away by car.

The regional centre of Barnstaple offers top high street names and independent stores/boutiques. There is also a leisure centre and indoor tennis centres, a branch line railway station and regional hospital. The A361 gives access to the M5 at Tiverton.
