The property

For those seeking a holiday beside the sea, you might be hard pushed to find somewhere closer than Oceanside Penthouse.

Perched on the enviable top floor of the Oceanside apartments on Capstone Crescent in Ilfracombe, the position is just a moments walk from the coastal footpath and the pretty harbour of Ilfracombe, guarded by the famous bronze statue 'Verity' created by Damien Hirst.

A charismatic seaside destination, Ilfracombe once made popular by the Victorians is now one of the most thriving resorts on Devon's North Coast.

A walkers paradise, Ilfracombe is a central location for some of the finest walking countryside in England and suitable for all levels and abilities.

On the edge of Exmoor National Park the scenery in this region is quite spectacular and encompasses some simply breathtaking walking routes across cliff tops, valleys and moorland.

The town offers a plethora of modern cafes, restaurants and a variety of shops and beaches, the famous Tunnels Beaches with its turquoise blue waters and shallow rock pools providing safe bathing and paddling for all ages.

Beach lovers who prefer long sandy stretches and rolling waves for surfing can enjoy the award winning Woolacombe and Croyde, both within a short car journey and perfect for family day trips to the beach.

A trip to this area wouldn't be complete without visiting the Valley of the Rocks and the famous funicular railway at the picturesque Lynton and Lynmouth often referred to as Devon's little Switzerland, and where Exmoor meets the coast. Breathtaking, uninterrupted views of the sea greet you as you enter this modern contemporary apartment.

Step through patio doors onto an impressive balcony its top floor position benefiting from day round sunshine, a perfect spot for an evening drink whilst the sun sinks slowly beneath the horizon.

The light and airy open plan living space is arranged to take full advantage of the incredible sea views, where on fine day it is possible to see the Welsh coastline.

There is a useful mezzanine level providing additional seating with a TV and desk for anyone needing to study or work.

Positioned on the third floor, there is lift access from the ground hallway.

Enjoying a central position close to the harbour, you can enjoy morning strolls to enjoy coffee on the harbour side or lunch in one of many restaurants and cafes in the town.
