The Esplanade, Woolacombe, Devon, EX34

FOR SALE BY INFORMAL TENDER - ALL BIDS TO BE SUBMITTED BY 12 NOON ON 30TH JULY

STUNNING SEA VIEWS, FABULOUS SUNSETS AND EASY ACCESS TO THE GOLDEN SAND BEACHES.

Occupying one of the most enviable positions on Woolacombe’s highly sought-after Esplanade, Resthaven represents an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached seafront residence in a location where properties seldom come to the open market. Set in a commanding elevated position directly fronting the coastline, the property enjoys uninterrupted sea views across Combesgate and out over the Bristol Channel, capturing the very essence of coastal living in one of North Devon’s most celebrated seaside destinations.

Resthaven is currently arranged as three self-contained apartments, offering an impressive degree of flexibility and immediate versatility. For those seeking an income-generating coastal investment, the existing layout lends itself particularly well to holiday letting or longer-term rental use, taking full advantage of Woolacombe’s enduring popularity and year-round appeal. Equally, the property offers exciting potential to be reconfigured back into one magnificent private residence, creating a landmark family home of considerable scale in an unrivalled coastal position, subject to any necessary consents.

The scope here is significant. Whether retained as separate apartments, transformed into a substantial single dwelling, or explored as a wider redevelopment opportunity, subject to planning, Resthaven provides a breadth of possibilities rarely found in such a prime Esplanade setting. Its generous plot, private driveway, garage and spectacular sea-facing position further enhance the appeal, making this a truly compelling proposition for buyers seeking location, lifestyle and potential in equal measure.

Flat 1 is positioned on the first floor and benefits from its own private external entrance. Generously proportioned throughout, the apartment enjoys outstanding sea views from its front-facing rooms and comprises a kitchen, spacious dining/living room, four bedrooms, bathroom, shower room and internal lobby. A substantial loft space provides significant potential for further development, subject to planning.

Flat 2 occupies the ground floor and also enjoys its own private entrance. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, living room, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms, offering comfortable and practical living space.

Flat 3 is a maisonette, arranged over the ground and first floor. There are two bedrooms, living room with double doors leading out to a balcony, kitchen, two bathrooms, wc, utility and dining room.

Resthaven sits within a generous plot and is approached via a large private driveway providing ample parking for multiple vehicles — a particularly valuable asset in this prime coastal setting. There is also a single garage with an up-and-over door, power, lighting and water supply.

While the property would benefit from modernisation and updating throughout, this only serves to underline the exciting potential on offer. Resthaven is not simply a coastal property; it is a rare chance to shape a significant seafront residence in one of Woolacombe’s most prestigious and tightly held addresses.

With Woolacombe’s award-winning beach, Combesgate Beach, the South West Coast Path and the village’s amenities all within easy reach, Resthaven combines a truly exceptional setting with scale, flexibility and future potential. Opportunities of this nature on The Esplanade are few and far between, making this a standout proposition for private buyers, investors and developers alike.
