Situated in the popular seaside village of Westward Ho!, this is a fantastic opportunity to acquire an unusually large 1 Bedroom Ground Floor apartment commanding panoramic views of the sea and Westward Ho!

A particular feature of the property is the private Balcony – accessed from the Bedroom through French doors which offers uninterrupted views over Westward Ho! and out to sea. On a clear day, Lundy Island can be seen in the distance, making the view even more special.

The property has gas fired central heating throughout and is being offered for sale with the distinct advantage of no onward chain.

Considered to appeal as an ideal first time purchase or investment opportunity alike, the property would also make an excellent holiday flat as the lease of this particular apartment allows it to be used for this purpose. The agents advise an early internal inspection to avoid disappointment.

Westward Ho! is a village, lying north of Bideford and west of Appledore. There are many country walks around the village and the outlying areas, including the popular Northam Burrows, Appledore Quay and the nearby Westward Ho! Beach. Originally called Bideford Quay, it was named Westward Ho! after Charles Kingsley’s book of the same name. Nowadays, it’s a bold mix of the old and the modern. It’s a popular spot with families that return year on year. Surfers and horse riders love the long sandy beach.

Local amenities include newsagents, mini supermarkets, take-aways and a post office. There’s also a primary school, health and dental centre and a number of churches in the area. Northam also has a decent public swimming pool and gym too. You’ll never be short of places to eat and drink with Appledore, Bideford and Abbotsham on your doorstep with their cornucopia of restaurants and pubs.

It’s within short driving distance of the Atlantic Highway (A39) that is the main feeder route across the region leading to Wadebridge in Cornwall to the south-west and to the M5 by Tiverton in the east. A very good regular bus services provides access to North Devon’s ‘capital’, Barnstaple. Bus users can also reach Westward Ho!, Bideford, Braunton, Appledore, Croyde and Ilfracombe with ease.

Directions
From Bideford Quay proceed towards Northam bypassing the village and continue onto Atlantic Way. Entering the one-way system, take the first left hand turning onto Kingsley Road. Take the sharp left hand turning approaching Kipling Terrace. Park in one of the visitor bays and one of our agents will meet you at the rear of the property.
