This stunning property has been furnished and equipped to the highest spec and offers fabulous estuary views, a games garage, an enclosed garden and ample parking, a rarity in the village.

Situated within 500 metres of this iconic village’s bustling quayside and boasting a contemporary layout with carefully-chosen soft furnishings, this reverse-level property offers a large family or group a plethora of creature comforts, as well as being a convenient base to explore North Devon. With room for a trio of four-footed friends, an astonishing open-plan living area ripe for social gatherings, en-suite facilities, EV charging and a south-facing garden, there’s something to suit everyone’s whims and wants.

Scatter across the comfortable seating in the lounge or the breakfast bar’s stools between meals or, on warmer days, head out of the kitchen and down into the south-facing enclosed garden, a private space for children and dogs to play while the adults prepare food for a BBQ on the decked area. The garage doubles as a pool room, perfect for the more competitive amongst your group.

Appledore’s quayside (within 500 metres) is home to an array of bars and eateries, its quaint streets offering independent shops and galleries. The golden sands of Westward Ho! lie 3 miles away and it’s just a short hop along a pebble ridge to the dog-friendly Northam Burrows Country Park, 253 hectares of grassy coastal plains, salt marsh, sand dunes ripe for exploring and just 2.5 from the property.
