8 Sandpiper Court is a purpose built, beautifully presented, very spacious luxury first floor apartment. One of 11 individually designed units, number 8 provides a very light, well balanced space, which is superbly configured for personal lifestyle and entertaining. The very attractive building occupies a prominent, commanding position in Beach Road, just ¾ of a mile from the centre of the well renowned, highly regarded resort of Woolacombe, on the ruggedly beautiful Atlantic coast in North Devon.

The apartment enjoys breath-taking sea and country views, with a wonderful vista down the valley towards Woolacombe Bay, Baggy Point and the Atlantic Ocean. Across the road from the building, a pretty footpath takes you through fields to the centre of the village and the beach. Sandpiper Court is set within spectacular landscaped gardens and grounds of over one acre which feature palm, cherry blossom and pine trees, as well as an abundance of flowering shrubs and bushes, sweeping lawns, gravel pathways and a natural stream with a waterfall feature. The many sitting areas enjoy sea and country views and there is the added advantage of a brick built BBQ for property owners’ use. The whole area provides a superb, tranquil setting in which to relax.

At the rear of the property is a large gravelled parking and turning area for property owners and their guests and the apartment also has the considerable benefit of a garage “en bloc”. The main entrance to Sandpiper Court has completely level access direct from the car parking area and there is a passenger lift to all floors, as well as stairs. Apartment number 8 is on the first floor, having gas central heating via a combination gas boiler and uPVC double glazed windows throughout the apartment.

The very bright and stylish open plan lounge/diner, features a stunning sea views down the valley which can been enjoyed from the balcony accessed via uPVC sliding doors. The balcony itself is completely private and benefits from attractive, low maintenance composite decking, with ample space for outdoor furniture, making it ideal for alfresco dining. With its stunning sea and country views, the balcony is the perfect place from which to enjoy the magnificent sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a comprehensive range of base and eye level units and matching drawers in a Shaker style, along with fully integrated appliances, which include an 4 ring gas hob with a stainless steel extractor hood and electric oven and fridge. There is a double stainless steel sink unit that is inset as well as tiled splashback and floor.

The hallway with its two double wardrobe style cupboards leads to the spacious master bedroom. It is here two double built in wardrobe provide ample storage space as well as an en-suite bathroom, complete with standalone rolled top bath, wash hand basin and low level WC.

The main shower room has a wonderfully nautical theme with a shower cubical, low level WC and wash hand basin alongside an airing cupboard and plumbing for a washing machine. The spacious second bedroom has a fantastic view over the communal gardens and the nearby countryside.

An intercom and camera system linked directly to the main communal entrance provide extra security. Outside, the property is approached via a driveway at the side, leading to a very large gravelled car parking and turning area for property owners and visitors. There is a block of garages along the southern boundary, with apartment 8 owning the third garage from the right hand end. The garage has an up and over door with light and power connected.

The landscaped gardens and grounds are an absolute delight and are a haven for birds of all descriptions At the rear there is a two tier terraced garden with a gravelled pathway leading alongside the stream up to a natural pond. A bridge access crosses the stream and leads to the upper level, which opens up to a large lawned area with delightful sea views, which is totally un-overlooked and secluded from the apartments in the building. The brick-built BBQ is surrounded by outdoor benches and tables and the whole area backs on to delightful farm land.
