Set right beside the sand at Widemouth Bay, this three-bedroom coastal house places families, friends, and surf lovers directly beside one of north Cornwall’s wide sandy beaches. Part of a small development of six houses, it has been designed to sit sensitively within the coastal landscape, with the beach reached across the lawn, through a gateway, and down six steps. Widemouth Bay is known for its open skies, sandy shoreline, craggy cliffs, and surf conditions suited to beginners and more experienced surfers, with lifeguard cover throughout the summer season. Other activities available along this stretch of coast include coasteering, windsurfing, kitesurfing, kayaking, canoeing, bike hire, and archery. The coastal town of Bude is 3 miles away, with a choice of shops, restaurants, and activities.
This is a split-level property with reversed accommodation. The living spaces are on the first floor and the bedrooms on the ground and lower ground floors. A large double-height entrance hall opens onto stairs leading up to the open-plan first-floor living area, where floor-to-ceiling windows and a wide patio door frame panoramic sea views. The living room area has ample seating for all to relax, with a Smart TV and wood burner as focal points. A dining area with table that seats six sits alongside, and the kitchen also has a sea view. The property’s environmental credentials include electricity sourced from solar panels and topped up by a green energy tariff, solar thermal panels for water heating, grass roofs for insulation, air source heat pumps and Triple A-rated appliances used where possible. On the ground floor, a twin room with chalet-style bunk beds, a single above a small double, has a built-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room with shower enclosure and a WC. Down some stairs, the lower ground floor has two bedrooms with king-size zip-and-link beds that can be arranged as twins on request, floor-to-ceiling windows, and patio doors opening onto a private furnished terrace with sea views. One of these bedrooms also has a built-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom with a large rainfall shower enclosure, a freestanding bath, and WC. The other bedroom is served by the family bathroom, which has a shower over the bath and a WC.
A private terrace overlooking the lawn and sea is furnished with recliners and a firepit. The garden is enclosed by fencing. On the first floor, a full-width balcony accessed from the living area provides further outdoor space with sea views. A lawn area, shared with guests in the other properties within the development, leads down to the beach via six steps. Private parking is available for two cars.
