Property description
A splendid modern detached 4/5 bedroom house set on an elevated position off a quiet road offering well presented accommodation with superb views over Braunton old Village and old Chapel Mount. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an extremely well presented detached family home which, due to its split level design, offers tremendous potential for B & B opportunities. In this respect the present owners have accrued a good income with little outlay.
Sunset Heights also represents a rare opportunity to acquire a most comfortable family home located to the very edge of Braunton and occupying a good size elevated site which commands superb views over Braunton old village to St Brannocks Church and also the ancient Chapel Mount which is a protected site. The property is in a tucked away, yet convenient and accessible, position to the north of Braunton village and is accessed via a sweeping drive which opens to the front of the property. To the side of this, there is ample parking space and triple garage facilities.
The property has been well maintained by the present owners and now benefits from uPVC double glazing and gas fired radiator central heating. Built to a split level design, the ground floor accommodation comprises: master bedroom with built in furniture and an arch leading to an en suite dressing room and shower room; there is a further bedroom and a family bathroom with large jacuzzi bath. To the first floor there is a 22' well fitted kitchen/breakfast room, which has access from the side, and is a useful utility room. The good sized sitting room has large double aspect picture windows taking full advantage of the views. There is a dining room, two further bedrooms, a study and a shower room. There is ample storage with some built in wardrobes and cupboards to both halls.
The property stands on a good size plot that has been well tended and designed to offer lawns and shrubs on either side of the sweeping drive which also gives access to a very private sun deck and summerhouse. There is a double and a single garage with steps to the side leading up to a very good size patio/barbeque deck, also with views. There are further steps that lead up to a level lawn where there are some fruit trees and this backs on to a lightly wooded area.
Braunton is a most sought after village being approximately 5 miles from the market town of Barnstaple and connected by a regular bus service. There is a wide range of amenities including primary and secondary schools, medical centre, post office, police station and a variety of local shops and businesses. The sandy beaches at Croyde and Saunton are only a few minutes drive to the west whilst, at Saunton, there is the renowned golf club with its two 18 hole courses.
Legal Fees will be paid subject to T&C's.
