Property description & features

  • Currently operating as a thriving holiday rental.

Introducing a rare gem on the property market, this delightful 90-year-old timber frame former cricket pavilion offers a blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Currently operating as a successful holiday let, this unique property provides an excellent investment opportunity.

Nestled within walking distance to the beautiful and famous sandy beach at Widemouth Bay, it promises both tranquillity and accessibility.

The pavilion sits on a generous plot of land measuring approximately 0.19 of an acre, surrounded by lawn gardens that offer ample space for relaxation and outdoor activities. The property benefits from parking facilities for up to three cars, ensuring convenience for residents and guests alike. Given its age and historic value, the pavilion has retained many of its original features, adding character and charm to its appeal but would only suit cash buyers due to the nature of its construction.

Significantly, the property presents great potential for redevelopment, subject to planning permissions and any necessary consent with the possibilities for creating a modern dream home or further enhancing the holiday let business being realistic, bearing in mind the neighbouring development.

This property has never been available on the open market before, making it a truly unique offering.

It is available with no onward chain, allowing for a smooth and swift purchase process but completion cannot take place until November 2024 due to the holiday let commitments.

Bude is a popular coastal resort located on the North Cornish coast, nearing the very northerly border of Cornwall into Devon.  This part of the coastline is extremely rugged with very high cliff tops and tucked away coves.  The best known beach in the area is Widemouth Bay, just to the south of Bude, which is a lovely sandy beach ideal for surfing.  There are two sandy beaches within very easy reach of the town centre called Crooklets and Summerleaze respectively. Bude has a historic past with the Canal and lock gates being an important part of the heritage of the town along with Bude Castle which is now a gallery, museum and restaurant.  The canal side has just been rejuvenated with new businesses opening and the town's library is also located there.  Bude was a prosperous Victorian seaside resort with the trains and canal providing access to and from Exeter.  Bude still is a town by the sea rather than a seaside resort, so although we do have a busy tourist period, the town remains vibrant with many things to do for all age groups throughout the year.
