DESCRIPTION
Boasting sea views and easy access to the beach we highly recommend viewing this unique property to really appreciate the size, space, privacy and location of this beautiful beach house.
Rubers Coombe is an exquisitely presented, spacious, period home within a 3 minute walk from the beaches of Widemouth Bay and Black Rock. Set off a small country lane the property offers both privacy & seclusion yet is only a few minutes’ drive from all of the shopping, dining and recreational facilities that Bude has to offer. Built in the 1920’s the property is one of the original properties in the hamlet of Widemouth and was previously the market garden.
The property has been extensively modernised by the current owners whilst retaining the character and original features such as the oak floorboards, handmade doors and Cornish flagstone flooring.
The property would make an ideal holiday home with all four bedrooms featuring sea views, a spacious kitchen/ dining room, two reception rooms and utility/ pantry. There is scope to extend the property further and planning was previously granted (now lapsed) to construct an oak framed garden room which would form part of the kitchen/ dining room.
Occupying a generous level plot the enclosed, private front and rear gardens perfect for children and pets alike. There are multiple options and areas for alfresco dining and an array of outbuildings to provide storage. The gravel driveway provides ample space to park multiple vehicles and room to erect garaging or additional accommodation with holiday let potential if needed (STPP).

Property information from this agent
Places of interest
Kivells can be traced back to 1885 when William Thomas Kivell set himself up in business as an auctioneer and land agent, first in Pyworthy and then in Holsworthy. What follows is an account of the Kivell family over four generations in the development of the firm of Kivells, from its origins as a one-man business in the late nineteenth century to its position today as one of the leading firms of Auctioneers, property agents and chartered surveyors in the West Country. William Kivell went on to grow the business and was joined by his sons forming Kivell and Sons, selling farm property and holding livestock auctions. Kivells is a very different firm from that founded by William Thomas Kivell in 1885, however the nature of the business and its ethics remain the same all be it with a much larger area of operation. The firm has recently became a limited company with one of the five directors being David Kivell, a great-grandson of William Kivell. It is organised around five divisions:- Agricultural sales and auctions (including the 3 livestock markets at Holsworthy, Hallworthy and Exeter and on farm sales throughout the Westcountry). Farm, Residential and Commercial Property (covering sales, auctions and lettings). Professional and Valuation work (including surveys, property management, rent reviews and full project management) Machinery and Heritage department (specialise in the sale of steam engines and all manner of vehicles, agricultural and domestic bygones). Kivells now operate from 5 main offices (Exeter, Holsworthy, Launceston, Liskeard and Bude) and 3 market centres (Holsworthy, Exeter and Hallworthy) and the firm employs around 170 full and part-time staff.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
