Stunning Penthouse Apartment with Breath-taking Views Over Woolacombe Bay.

Set in an elevated and peaceful position above Woolacombe, this impressive penthouse apartment combines outstanding coastal views with the comfort and practicality needed for full time living. Just half a mile from the centre of the village, it offers easy access to the beach, local amenities and everyday conveniences, while enjoying a quieter setting away from the seasonal pace of the resort. For buyers seeking a main home by the coast, the apartment stands out for its sense of space, ease of access, private garage and well maintained surroundings.

Forming part of an attractive conversion of a former hotel, the building sits within around an acre of landscaped communal grounds that add greatly to the overall setting. The gardens are particularly appealing, with a gently flowing stream, a waterfall feature, arched bridges, and a number of seating areas placed to take in the surrounding countryside and coastal outlook. The setting creates a calm and established environment that feels both private and welcoming.

The building is served by a passenger lift to all floors, making access straightforward of all ages and abilities and widening its appeal for buyers looking for comfort and convenience over the longer term. To the rear there is a large communal parking area, while the apartment also benefits from its own private garage, which is a valuable feature in Woolacombe and especially useful for secure parking, storage or keeping beach and outdoor equipment neatly tucked away.

Inside, the apartment immediately gives a strong impression of space and natural light, having been upgraded and completely refurbished approximately 5 years ago. The reception hall extends to around 30 feet in length and is enhanced by large roof windows that bring in daylight throughout the day. This is more than simply a corridor, with two built in workstation areas creating useful space for home working or study, along with excellent built in storage. The layout has real character, with interesting roof lines, high ceilings and a sense of individuality that sets it apart from more conventional apartments.

The lounge is a particularly striking room, extending to around 20 feet and centred around a dramatic vaulted ceiling rising to approximately 12 feet. A full glazed gable end draws the eye straight to the remarkable view, taking in the valley, surrounding countryside, the village itself and the sweep of Woolacombe Bay beyond. From here there are far reaching views towards Baggy Point, Hartland Point and Lundy Island, giving the room a memorable outlook that changes beautifully with the light and seasons.

The kitchen and dining room is equally well suited to modern living, offering a sociable and well planned space for everyday use as well as entertaining. It is fitted with a range of integrated appliances and includes a breakfast bar for informal dining, with ample room for a dining table. Sliding glazed doors open onto a private inset roof terrace, creating an exceptional outdoor extension of the living space and a wonderful place for dining outside, relaxing in the sun or simply enjoying the sunsets across the bay.

There are three generous bedrooms, with built in wardrobes to bedrooms one and two, providing practical storage without compromising on space. The two bathrooms are both stylishly finished with modern sanitary ware and attractive tiling, giving a clean and contemporary feel.

Further benefits include video entry, intercom, gas fired central heating and double glazing. Altogether, this is a distinctive coastal home that offers the rare combination of impressive views, strong internal space, easy access and a peaceful position close to one of North Devon's most popular villages.

All in all, the apartment offers the ease, comfort and practicality that many buyers are looking for in a permanent move to the seaside. With lift access, generous accommodation, a garage and a peaceful setting close to the village and beach, it has many of the qualities that often draw attention to bungalows, but with the added advantage of far more internal space and far reaching views. Anyone considering bungalows around this price point should look closely at this apartment, as it offers a similar sense of convenience for day to day living while providing significantly more square footage, greater flexibility and a memorable coastal setting.
