The property
A terraced former police house in the village centre of Braunton, this charming cottage is just three miles from the beautiful North Devon Coast. Located in the heart of the village, you are surrounded by village shops, surf shops, traditional village pubs, contemporary restaurants, bars and cafes, and also close to the bank and cash point. With sandy beaches and golf courses, this is an ideal holiday cottage for all the family. The Old Police House has been beautifully converted, with some of the interesting original features retained. The kitchen with its large dining area leads out to a utility room and surfboard storage area. The sitting room has plush sofas and a large TV, and makes a really cosy, relaxing family room. The former ground floor cell has the original viewing panel and now serves as a bedroom with bespoke bunk beds, and the wide staircase used to take criminals up to the first floor has a fabulous feature window, letting in plenty of light to the upstairs landing. The three bedrooms on the first floor are spacious; the Kingpin Room with a king-size bed, the Garden Room with a double bed and patio doors leading out to the garden, and The Family Room which can either be made up with a super king-size double and a single, or with three single beds. The enclosed rear garden is reached via the inner hallway or the utility room, and several steps lead up to extensive decking across two areas. The decking can also be reached from one of the first floor double bedrooms, being on the top level, and it has wonderful views across the village, providing a sunny spot to relax around the barbecue. A short stroll into the village provides easy access to a bistro, pubs, cafes and shops and a three-mile drive leads to the fabulous long sandy beach at Saunton, which is backed by Braunton Burrows, a vast area of sand dunes, designated an AONB. A welcoming cottage with a wealth of charm, close to beaches and family fun.
