"A mature detached 5 bedroom residence set in 1.33 acres at end of no through road close to the centre/seafront of this popular coastal village.
SITUATION AND AMENITIES Combe Martin lies at the centre of some of North Devon's most spectacular coastal scenery, and is situated in a beautiful and fertile valley on the western edge of Exmoor. The approach to Combe Martin along the coastal road offers a visitor glimpses of some of the most stunning views in North Devon. The two headlands of Great and Little Hangman dominate the sea as one journeys down to the pretty sheltered harbour below. The beach at Combe Martin is a mixture of sand and pebbles, which, at low tide extends into large areas of firm, clean sand. There are also a number of small, secluded bays within the village centre, Wild Pear Beach, Sandy Cove and Newberry Beach are close by. Footpaths head off in many directions from the village, and are popular with walkers who enjoy the unspoilt coastal views. The village offers a good range of local shopping facilities providing for day to day needs. More extensive facilities are available at Ilfracombe, about 5 miles, whilst the regional centre of Barnstaple is about 12 miles, and offers excellent shopping facilities including many of the well known high street stores and out of town superstores. The surrounding countryside and coastline provide excellent recreational facilities with the popular resorts of Croyde, Woolacombe and Saunton are all within half an hour. DESCRIPTION As the name suggests, the property was constructed within the site of a former quarry and many of the original rock facades are still on display today. This is a most unusual setting, as the house itself is on a level plateau at the end of a no through road, sheltered within the original quarry, as well as landscaped gardens and woodland, which provide a good deal of seclusion, privacy, as well as peace and quiet. At the same time, village amenities and the sea front are within a healthy walking distance, and we are advised that when the leaves are off the trees, there is actually a sea view from the balcony on the first floor. The grounds are dog proof, and the woodland provides a natural haven for wildlife. The house itself was constructed in 1984, and presents elevations of brick, half colourwash rendered, beneath a tiled roof, with attractive shutters to some of the first floor windows of the front elevation.
