4 Greystones for sale freehold Greystones sits in a secluded and quiet spot within St Helens Close. In addition to ample parking either side of the house with two separate driveways off different lanes, the property also includes a self-contained detached, one bedroom studio annexe that offers exciting rental opportunity or secondary accommodation. Braunton and Georgeham are both a short drive away and both provide very good schooling that cater for all ages of children. The property itself is ideal either as a principal residence or as a holiday home and would be ideally suited as an investment property as well. It is perfect for surfers. The property is approached down a no through road and the private driveway provides ample parking for at least eight cars or boat trailers. There is also secondary access to the property off Sandy Lane that provides parking for another four cars or boat trailers. It is from this rear driveway down Sandy Lane that the beach is a short walk away. In addition to the five bedroom family home there is also a one bedroom detached studio annexe within the twin garage block. The front door leads into an entrance hallway off which is a spacious double shower that is perfect for surfers coming from the beach. The entrance hall leads into a lovely spacious and airy reception dining room off which is the kitchen.

5 Double doors leading out to the decking in front. The reception dining room has a high vaulted ceiling and, similar to the entrance hall and double shower room, has underfloor heating. Beyond the reception room is an inner hallway off which are four bedrooms, three of which have en-suite bath/shower rooms. At the far end of the house on the ground floor is a sitting room with an open fireplace and double doors leading out onto a covered veranda and the garden. Stairs lead up from the inner hallway to the first floor landing off which is the principal bedroom, dressing room and bathroom. This bedroom enjoys some of the best sea views from the house. The detached garage block consists of two single garages and a self-contained one bedroom annexe with a shower room. It could be rented out to produce an income stream. The annexe has its own small private garden and the main family home has a wrap-around garden and lawn with a rear entrance leading onto Sandy Lane. The property is tucked away in a quiet and private position away from the main road. It is perfectly situated lying equi-distant between the centre of the village with the pubs and shops and coffee bars and the beach. Croyde & Georgeham Village Croyde and Georgeham enjoy a welcoming community of permanent and holiday home families, and individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit welcoming old and new businesses. Croyde has thriving surf and surf-lifesaving clubs and is a destination of national significance for surfers throughout the country and in Europe. There is a strong community of families that have relocated from London, Bristol and elsewhere to maximise their family s quality of life; a supportive commuter network for those dual-living between working in London & Bristol and living in North Devon due to the strong & reliable transport links. North Devon Coast, Croyde Beach The North Devon Coast is arguably one of the most sought after seafront locations and is the perfect setting for this fantastic beach front waterfront home. This area of North Devon is noted for its coastline of spectacular cliffs, much of it in the ownership and protection of the National Trust, secret coves and sandy beaches, with a hinterland of wild moorland, sparkling river valleys and lush rolling hills. West Buckland School near Barnstaple is close by with a daily bus service 2 mins from the property in Croyde. It is well respected and offers nursery, preparatory and

6 senior education for children from the ages of 3 to 18. The property is also within the catchment area for the sought after Georgeham Primary School 1.5 miles away. The village of Croyde, also a popular surfing beach, has a number of pubs, restaurants, Deli & Café and shops suitable for everyday amenities within a 2 minute walk. The Thatch in Croyde is a very popular pub with both locals and visitors to the area. The renowned gastro-pub, The Rock, is about 1 ½ miles away in Georgeham whilst more extensive shopping can be found in the nearby towns of Braunton and Barnstaple, which has a shopping mall, Green Lanes, a daily pannier market, a leisure centre and the Tarka Tennis Club with 6 impressive indoor tennis courts. Exeter, about 1 ½ hour s drive away, which has a wide selection of all the familiar high street brands. Few UK beaches can match the raw beauty of the North Devon Coast. As well as being a world class family beach, Croyde, Putsborough and Saunton Sands are also renowned for some of the best surf in the country. Backing onto the Atlantic, a good swell can produce line after line of beautiful long, slow rollers that prove to be an irresistible draw for surfers from all over the country. Generally, Saunton is better suited to longboards and Croyde better suited to shortboards. In addition to surfing there are many other sporting activities that take place on Croyde, Putsborough and Saunton Sands beaches; kitesurfing, kayaking and paddle boarding to name a few. Saunton Golf Club is nearby and is regarded as one of the best links courses in the country. The North Devon link road, only a few miles away passing through Barnstaple and Tiverton, provides access to the M5 Motorway and national network at Exeter. The mainline railway station at Tiverton Parkway provides an intercity rail service to London Paddington (from 1 hour, 58 minutes). Exeter Airport is about an hour and twenty minutes drive away and offers a number of regular daily flights to most European Cities. It also caters for private and chartered jets and helicopters too.
