House For Sale £1,500,000
If you're looking for a high quality family-friendly home in a sought after coastal location, look no further than Wavecrest, a spacious and versatile freehold detached 1930s house, just a few minutes walk from the award winning, world class beach in Woolacombe. The village is home to an excellent primary school, medical centre and pharmacy and benefits from a variety of cafes, bars and leisure facilities. A sweeping brick paved driveway leads to a large garage and side elevation, allowing for off road parking for several cars and easy access to the front garden and main entrance, with stairs from an entrance hallway to the first floor. The spacious sunny lounge is a perfect spot to relax and watch the sun set over the Atlantic Ocean and Lundy island, and the feature limestone fire surround and wood burner provide a focal point in this welcoming living room.
The hub of this home is the dual aspect 32 ft social kitchen diner and sitting area, with a bay window overlooking the front garden. The kitchen has a range of fitted units with wrap around corian worktops, a 6 ring Britannia range style gas hob with double electric ovens, and a fitted Miele dishwasher. A walk in pantry with ample shelving provides plenty of additional storage. The dining area currently accommodates a six seater dining table and chairs, with space for a large sofa and armchairs in the seating area. The bay window is fitted with made to measure Sanderson shutters.
To the rear of the ground-floor is a library room with bespoke shelving, which could also be utilised as an additional home office. The lobby area beside the rear door is a useful clothes drying area, leading into a shower room and a utility room. This generously proportioned and light room with rear garden views, has a stainless steel sink and worktop with plenty of floorspace for white goods and freestanding storage units.
The current vendors have converted the rear ground floor of the side extension into additional living space accessed through a link door from the utility room. This space has been transformed into a modern kitchen with an induction hob, electric oven and fitted appliances with breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen is a third shower room with low level WC, wall mounted wash hand basin, walk-in shower and a heated towel rail, and tiled throughout with a travertine floor. Above the garage and accessed via an oak staircase is the large bedroom 6, with far reaching views from the front window over the garden and coast line. There is plenty of space for a king size bed, sofa, and free standing furniture, potentially an impressive bedroom for older teenagers, or dependent relatives .
The first floor comprises of 5 double bedrooms (the fifth bedroom is used as a study with bespoke fitted office furniture and wardrobe), and the main bathroom. The three south facing front bedrooms have wonderful views across Woolacombe beach, with the master bedroom occupying a lovely south westerly position with double aspect views across the beach towards Lundy Island. The dressing area benefits from built in wardrobes and an ensuite shower room, with low level WC, pedestal wash hand basin, corner shower and obscure window to the side elevation. The two rear bedrooms have a lovely outlook across National Trust fields, and the study (potential bedroom 5) is accessed via a half landing with access to a decked area through patio doors. Bedroom 3 has a modern wall mounted washbasin, and also benefits from access onto the rear decking, with a walkway and steps onto the garden. The family bathroom rounds off the first floor accommodation with bath, corner shower, low level WC and wash hand basin.
The large south facing garden was designed by David Stevens into manageable garden rooms, well stocked with shrubs and plants. Three separate decked areas, one with a walkway from the house to the garden, take full advantage of the garden and views at various times of the day. A superb summer house with wonderful beach views is a focal point for relaxation with family and friends. A generous sandstone patio and lawn area to the front of the house is ideal for outdoor meals and relaxation. There is a lawned lower garden area to the front of the plot, which is boarded by a secure brick wall and mature shrubs a decking area to catch the last of the evening sun.
To the rear of the house, you can take a seat and watch the world go by in the stunning summer house (with power), or on the decking or lower paved patio, all of which make for an ideal place for alfresco dining with family and friends. After watching the sunset, why not pull up a seat and enjoy a drink on the additional sandstone patio and lawn located to the side of the house looking down the beach towards Putsborough.
If you have been longing to find your forever home, or a dream coastal investment with 5/6 double bedrooms, generous social spaces, and bordered by the National Trust Land with breath-taking views over Woolacombe beach, call now or book online 24/7 to arrange a viewing.
