4 Bed in Appledore (oc-s42636)

Set right on the water’s edge within Appledore, this stunning home enjoys a breath taking coastal position. Appledore's colourful streets, galleries, cafés and quay are within half a mile, while the long sandy beach and dunes of Westward Ho! are just 2 miles away. Nature lovers will appreciate immediate access to Northam Burrows (0.3 miles) and the scenic Tarka Trail (0.2 miles), ideal for walking and cycling. There is a private access gate to the rear of the property to the coastal path and a slipway by the RNLI for paddle boarding and kayaking. Surfers are well served by the famous beaches of Saunton Sands (8 miles), Croyde (11 miles) and Woolacombe (13 miles). With Bideford 2 miles away and delightful coastal villages such as Clovelly (12 miles) within easy reach, this is an exceptional base for exploring the unspoilt North Devon coast.


Inside, the property has been beautifully renovated into a coastal holiday home designed with relaxation, luxury and effortless sociability in mind. The expansive ground-floor living space forms the heart of the house, where sumptuous sofas in both the lounge and TV snug sit alongside a crackling wood burner – perfect for unwinding after windy coastal walks. Large sliding doors draw in the light and frame ever-changing sea views, seamlessly connecting the interior with the garden beyond. The impressive kitchen is fully equipped with high-spec appliances and sits beside an extendable dining table, encouraging long, laughter-filled meals with family and friends. There is a utility area just off the kitchen and also a ground floor shower room. Completing the ground floor are two beautifully designed bedrooms, a king-size (which can be converted to a twin on request), and a double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room. Upstairs, two further elegant super-king-size bedrooms are thoughtfully styled for comfort, with one boasting an en-suite shower room. Both have stunning coastal views and each feature indulgent Tempur beds and toppers to ensure a superb night’s sleep. The property is completed by a family bathroom with panoramic views from the free-standing bath.


Outside, the setting is nothing short of magical. Set within a quarter-acre of private, landscaped gardens, the outdoor space has been carefully zoned to suit every mood. There is a games room with table tennis table and dart board and storage for surf boards and wet suit hangers within the large garage space. Enjoy al fresco dining on the sea-view patio, sip morning coffee or evening drinks on one of the many terraces, or stretch out on the iconic Apple daybed for a well-earned afternoon siesta. The decked area has plenty of space for yoga, pilates or meditation. A private gate leads directly to the RNLI slipway and coast path for open water swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding. Private parking is available for up to six cars.
