Property description

Situated in the heart of the very popular coastal surfing village of Woolacombe with its stunning golden sand beach, this newly converted 2 bedroom low maintenance home is conveniently located to the village and amenities, has its own low maintenance garden and two allocated off-road parking spaces. The property is complete and ready for immediate occupation and has no onward chain.

Here's a great opportunity for those looking for low maintenance, easy living in the heart of the very sought-after coastal surfing village of Woolacombe. Church View is a delightful newly converted single storey semi-detached home which is located just a few hundred metres from the fabulous golden sand surfing beaches and close to the local village amenities and the school. This brand-new conversion is now complete and ready for immediate occupation and is ideal as a permanent home or as a holiday home or hoiday let. The single level living is perfect for older or disabled residents as well. A real benefit of the property is its two off-road allocated parking spaces in the car park to the rear and there is also a good-sized low maintenance garden which enjoys a sunny southerly aspect and glimpses towards the sea and Baggy Point.

Everything in the property is completely brand new with the accommodation being created from what was once part of Woolacombe Medical Centre. An entrance hall has all of the rooms leading off and there is excellent storage within the property as there is a deep store cupboard, perfect for the everyday essentials such as the vacuum cleaner and the ironing board. There is also a very handy utility cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine and further storage space. There is also access to the loft space as well.

Woolacombe sits on the North Devon coast and is famous throughout the country and popular with visitors from all around the UK. There are a variety of small shops, bars, restaurants and cafes to suit all pockets as well as other leisure facilities. The village has an excellent Ofsted primary school, a Pharmacy, Medical centre and post office. The 2 1/2 miles of award-winning golden sand surfing beaches are Woolacombe's primary attraction, however, the village is also surrounded by open National Trust land which enjoys miles and miles of walking along meandering footpaths offering some breath-taking coastal scenery along the rugged North Devon coastline. For keen golfers, Saunton's professional golf course is just a short drive away and has two links courses and there is a further smaller course within Woolacombe at Easewell. Barnstaple, which is North Devon's main trading centre, is approximately 14 miles away and has many of the big-name shops, a rail link to Exeter which connects to major stations in London and the South East, and direct access onto the main A361 North Devon link road which joins the M5 at junction 27.

There are two bedrooms and a modern and beautifully appointed fully tiled shower room. The heart of the home is the open plan L-shaped 20ft x 18ft living room and kitchen. The living area has double doors at the end of the room which open directly onto the garden and offer views over the village with glimpses of the sea and Baggy Point. The kitchen has a range of fitted base and wall units complimented by integrated appliances which include an hob with an extractor canopy over and an oven under, a fridge and freezer and a dishwasher. A Baxi wall-hung gas fired boiler provides the central heating and the hot water.

There are new floor coverings throughout, with attractive wooden floors in the hallway, living room and kitchen, carpets in the two bedrooms and tiles in the shower room.

Outside, there are two allocated parking spaces in the car park at the rear of the building. A sloped walk-way leads down from the car park to the entrance to the building. There is also a further pedestrian access from the front from Beach Road as well. The delightful, south facing, low maintenance garden comprises a paved patio which is directly accessible from the main living room blending indoor and outdoor living seamlessly. The patio offers good space for outdoor furniture and sun loungers and is a great spot for an al-fresco meal or a barbecue. The patio wraps around to the side of the building and to the rear. There are views from the garden over the village with glimpses towards the sea and Baggy Point.
