This beautiful, recently converted two-bedroom first-floor apartment, within an attractive four-storey building on picturesque Fore Street, has its own private balcony. The balcony is the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine while enjoying the view of Ilfracombe harbour and the stunning backdrop of Hillsborough Cliffs. A comfortable seat by the balcony doors is ideal for curling up to the view of Capstone Hill, the Bristol Channel and the distant Welsh Coast.
The property is one of just four apartments, recently converted to a very high standard, in this characterful building. The building is situated in a central and convenient location in one of the oldest parts of the town. Some of the best restaurants in North Devon are just a stone's throw away, and coffee shops, bars, a theatre, cinema, and beaches are all close by. Fore Street boasts a variety of independent shops, and the main high street is within 200 metres. Within the town there is a health centre, hospital, library, and schools for all ages.
The apartment would provide a comfortable low-maintenance permanent home or alternatively be ideal as a high-quality second home/holiday let with good income potential. The property is leasehold with a 999-year lease. The freehold is vested in the management company which is jointly run by the owners of the four apartments, with each of the owners holding a ¼ share in the building.
The apartment benefits from gas central heating and double-glazed windows. A video intercom and door entry system provides additional security. High ceilings and tall sash windows give the lounge, kitchen and bedrooms a spacious, airy feel. Decorated in neutral tones throughout, with good quality floor coverings, fixtures and fittings, the apartment is ready for immediate occupation.
The entrance hall has all rooms leading off, with the heart of the home being the spacious, bright and airy 26ft x 15ft living room and kitchen. The kitchen area is well-equipped with a range of modern base and wall units with granite work surfaces, complemented by integrated appliances which include a washer/dryer, hob with extractor canopy over and oven under, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. The kitchen opens onto the lounge area which has double doors leading out onto the balcony. Along the hallway is a modern bathroom and the two bedrooms. The main bedroom is a good-sized double bedroom, while the second bedroom is currently set-up as a small double but would also accommodate bunk beds.
The service charge is £150 a month which includes building insurance, cleaning of windows and communal areas, and a sink fund for repairs. There are no restrictions on holiday or assured shorthold letting and pets are allowed in the building. Parking is available in the nearby public car parks, and reasonably priced residents’ permits are available for purchase online.<br/>Applicants are advised to proceed from our offices in an easterly direction along the High Street. At the end of the High Street bear off left into Fore Street and continue down the hill. Number 52 Fore Street is on the left-hand side a further 100 metres down the hill.
