Ilfracombe, Devon
Description:
An individual detached chalet residence offering tastefully modernised, well presented and versatile accommodation with superb views.
SITUATION AND AMENITIES
Hawksridge enjoys an elevated position, set back and above the lane, backing onto open fields, and enjoys 180 degree panoramic views across the village, church steeple to open countryside in one direction, and as far as the sea in the other. At the same time, the property is within walking distance of the centre of the lovely small and unspoilt village of Berrynarbor, which boasts community Post Office / general store, an excellent 13th Century inn, as well as well-respected primary school. The popular North Devon coastal village of Combe Martin, about 2 miles, is set at the bottom of the hilly coastline and has a sheltered beach along with a variety of shops catering for day to day needs. A little further afield, about 3 miles away, is the town of Ilfracombe, with its quaint harbour and more extensive shopping facilities and amenities, including supermarkets, schooling for all ages, leisure centre and theatre. The surrounding countryside and coastline provide excellent recreational facilities, with lovely wide open beaches at Croyde, Putsborough, Saunton and Woolacombe, all about half an hour by car. The Exmoor National Park nearby provides endless bridleways and footpaths for those who wish to ride or walk, and appreciate the dramatic rugged countryside. Barnstaple town is about 10 miles, or 20/25 minutes by car, and as North Devon's regional centre, houses the area's main business, commercial, leisure and shopping venues. A short distance away, access is available to the North Devon Link Road, leading through to Junction 27 of the M5, part of the National Motorway Network, whilst Barnstaple Railhead provides a link to the National Railway System.
DESCRIPTION
We understand that the core dates from the 1930s, however the property has been extended and remodelled in subsequent years, and has undergone complete refurbishment in recent years to include the creation of a new first floor master bedroom suite and balcony. The property now provides bright, spacious, stylish, versatile and well presented accommodation, which could suit dual occupation, or some home / income use, or alternatively, makes an ideal single main residence or second home. The property presents whitened rendered elevations, partly relieved by stone quoins, all beneath a slate roof, with terracotta ridge tiles. Notable improvements by the current vendors include new wiring, new plumbing, new roof, new kitchen and sanitary ware, new gas central heating system, new double glazing, new soffits and downpipes, and the gardens have been cleverly landscaped as a series of external rooms. There is ample parking / garage space. We understand that planning permission has been obtained to allow the owners, if they so wish, to add a conservatory in one or two different places. The layout of the accommodation with approximate dimensions is more clearly identified on the accompanying floorplan, but comprises;

OUTSIDE
To the front, the property is approached from the lane, over a gravelled driveway, which rises to the front and left of the property, where there is ample turning, parking and space for garaging subject to planning permission. The driveway continues as a lower gravelled terrace, and is bounded by well-stocked herbaceous beds and borders with rustic edgers. Paved steps then lead beneath a rustic arbour to the front door which is flanked by terraces which wrap around the entire front elevation of the property, and where to the left of the front door, there is an extensive sun deck to enjoy the best of the view, which is an ideal area for al fresco dining. Beyond this is a further gravelled terrace and rockery above, a series of gravelled pathways with rustic edgers then meander, zig zagging through the rear garden, between further well stocked herbaceous beds, to an upper level, where there is a fixed stone seat, once again to enjoy the marvellous views. To the right of the property, is a WORKSHOP with power and light connected and below this, a large GREENHOUSE in two sections. Below that there are two areas of fruit and vegetable gardens, featuring a number of raised beds with rustic edgers, and returning around to the front of the property, there is an area of sweeping lawn crossed by stepping stones returning to the drive.
