Wildercombe House is an impressive and exceptionally well presented substantial property, located in a commanding position as you enter Ilfracombe town, enjoying stunning views overlooking rolling countryside, Ilfracombe town, on towards the dramatic Bristol Channel, and Wales on the horizon.Wildercombe House is an impressive and exceptionally well presented substantial property, located in a commanding position as you enter Ilfracombe town, enjoying stunning views overlooking rolling countryside, Ilfracombe town, on towards the dramatic Bristol Channel, and Wales on the horizon.The former Victorian gentleman's residence was built in 1885 and stands within its own grounds of about an acre, with lawned terraces, a variety of plants, shrubs, mature trees, planted hedgerows, and light woodland to the top boundary, with unsurpassed, elevated views. At ground level, the retaining and boundary walls and courtesy lighting offer security for the parking of up to 16 vehicles.To say the property has been subject to tremendous refurbishment by the current owners, is an understatement! The building was stripped back to the original stone and brick shell, and a complete restoration undertaken, which included a new roof, double glazing throughout, and the installation of 3-phase electricity, gas, and water supplies. Wi-Fi is available throughout the building, along with hard-wired internet access points. Extensions were added at both ends of the building, incorporating a roof top terrace and Juliet balcony on the second floor. Building works included full internal plastering and rendering to the exterior, and decoration to suit. A secondary staircase was installed on the first floor, giving additional access to the second floor. Wherever possible, all bedrooms were restored to their original Victorian magnificence, size and high ceilings are everything. All bedrooms have contemporary en suite facilities. Works were completed in 2012, and to keep up-to-date with current trends, a number of additional alterations and further investment have continued to take place to present the building as you see today. However, great care has been taken to retain the building's history and architecture. It is a most substantial property incorporating a total of 14 en suited bedrooms, a self-contained annexe, two large reception rooms, the commercial kitchen, laundry, and boiler room.The building has 3 independent heating systems (1 - annexe, 2 ground and first floor, 3 2nd floor). Planning permission has been granted for a 2-storey extension, to increase the 'owner's lounge 1' on the ground floor, and to Room 8 on the 1st floor, creating a new bedroom, en suite, and balcony area. The existing Room 8 would then become the lounge and kitchenette, completing the suite.Original features of the property include a magnificent reception hall with Victorian tiled floor, sweeping staircase to the first floor, cornice and coving, Victorian parquet floor to the sitting room, dining room, and lobby. The commercial kitchen is fully equipped, capable of providing all levels of service. The property is arranged on 3 levels, with a lift servicing each floor.The well-proportioned rooms and excellent space allow for tremendous flexibility and scope for the new owner to use the property as a hotel, with the possibility of adding a restaurant and re-instating the bar, although there are far more possibilities which arise from a property of this size. This would make for an excellent "well-being retreat", with therapy rooms. Alternatively, a large family residence, a private member's club, or bar and music lounge. The possibilities are endless. However, again we must say that this property can only be fully appreciated when viewed.Ilfracombe is a good sized Victorian town situated on the rugged North Devon coast. Its central feature is the attractive fishing port and harbour, with the Hillsborough skyline and the 13th century St Nicolas Chapel set aloft on Lantern Hill. The more recent addition of 'Verity' by Damien Hirst, also graces the harbour, and the award winning Landmark Theatre is close by with its iconic double conical design. The town caters well for its inhabitants with primary and secondary schooling, and an excellent range of independent shops and stores along with the Tesco superstore. Ilfracombe Golf Club is close to hand as are the many miles of superb coastal walks via the South West Coastal Path. There are excellent surfing beaches at Woolacombe, voted in the top five in the country, and Saunton, Croyde and Putsborough. Braunton village is 9 miles to the south and Barnstaple, the principle North Devon town, is 14 miles away. Here there are further amenities and access to the North Devon Link Road which provides a convenient link to the M5 motorway at junction 27. The Tarka Rail Line in Barnstaple connects to Exeter in the south which picks up directly from there to London (Paddington).The property is approached from St Brannocks Road via a sweeping driveway which leads up to a large expanse of extensive car parking to the side of the property. Directly to the front there is a large terrace laid with stone chippings, with seating and tables for guest's convenience, with views toward the Bristol Channel and Wales beyond. The secondary lower tarmacadam driveway gives private access to the annexe, including 2 private parking spaces and enclosed private garden.Entrance & Reception Lobbies - 3.96m 3.05m x 3.56m (13' 10 x 11'8) - Cloakroom - A Magnificent Entrance Hall & Lift - 6.10m max x 5.74m (20' max x 18'10) - Laundry - 4.14m x 2.36m (13'7 x 7'9) - Sitting Room - 7.21m x 4.90m (23'8 x 16'1) - Large bay.Dining Room - 7.24m x 5.05m (23'9 x 16'7) - Bay window.Bedroom 1, - 4.63m x 4.57m (15'2 x 14'11) - Disabled CompliantEn Suite Shower Room - Owners' Bedroom A - 4.50m x 3.76m (14'9 x 12'4) - Dressing Area - En Suite Shower Room - Owners' Bedroom B - 4.40 x 4.24 (14'5 x 13'10) - En Suite Bathroom - Owners' Lounge - 4.25 x 3.12 (13'11 x 10'2) - Inner Hall With Boiler Room - 3.53m x 2.64m (11'7 x 8'8) - Main Kitchen - 5.31 x 4.70 (17'5 x 15'5) - Annex Living Room - 5.35 max x 4.32m max (17'6 max x 14'2 max) - Annex Kitchen - 3.45m x 2.92m (11'4 x 9'7) - Annex Wet Room - Stairs To First Floor Annex Bedroom - 5.38m x 4.27m (17'8 x 14' ) - Dressing Room & En Suite Shower Room - First Floor Landing & Lift - Bedroom 2 - 4.66 x 4.6 (15'3 x 15'1) - En Suite Shower Room - Bedroom 3 - 4.22 x 3.79 (13'10 x 12'5) - En Suite Bathroom & Dressing Area - Bedroom 4. - 3.84 x 2.94 (12'7 x 9'7) - En Suite Shower Room - Bedroom 5 - 7.83 max x 5.10m (25'8 max x 16'8) - Irregular shape and lovely viewEn Suite Bathroom & Dressing Room - Bedroom 6. - 5.81 x 5.05 (19'0 x 16'6) - En Suite Bathroom - Bedroom 7 / Lounge - 7.98 x 4.15 (26'2 x 13'7) - En Suite Shower Bath & Dressing Area - Bedroom 8. - 5.98 x 3 (19'7 x 9'10) - En Suite Bathroom - 2nd Floor Landing & Lift - Bedroom 9. - 5.41 x 4.25 (17'8 x 13'11) - With Dressing RoomDressing Room & En Suite Bathroom - Lounge/ Kitchenette - 6.08 x 4.03 (19'11 x 13'2) - Bedroom 10. - 4.52 x 4.17 (14'9 x 13'8) - Access to Store RoomEn Suite Bathroom - Kitchenette - Lounge & Dressing Area - 4.97 x 4.51 (16'3 x 14'9) - Door To Sun Terrace - Bedroom 11. - 5.22 max x 3.90 max (17'1 max x 12'9 max) - En Suite Shower, Cloakroom & Balcony - Bedroom 12. - 4.65 x 4.11 (15'3 x 13'5) - Walk In Dressing Room - 3.03 x 1.92 (9'11 x 6'3) - En Suite Bathroom - Ample Parking With Lighting - Council Tax Band:Annexe - Band B.Main building - zero rated.TenureFreeholdServicesAll mains connected.

The Grange is a superb and extremely spacious and imposing detached family home situated almost anonymously within its own delightful and very private landscaped gardens and grounds of very nearly 3 acres. There is so much on offer at the property. The main house is particularly spacious and has versatile accommodation of approximately 610m2 (6,566ft2), which includes a fabulous 58ft long by 38ft wide swimming pool complex which has a 40ft x 20ft pool, hot tub and changing rooms. In addition to the main house, there is a separate detached annexe building which comprises a 2 bedroom first floor flat of approximately 76.1m2 (819ft2) as well as a snooker/games room beneath and a large integral garage/store. This area of the building is ideal for elderly or dependent relative use or could be let to produce a healthy supplementary income. The set-up of the property offers a great deal of versatility to the new owner. The vast accommodation within the main house is perfect for the larger family or even multi-generational living with the annexe offering further options and different uses and would be ideal for those looking for dual family occupation. At present, the property is used as a very high quality holiday let specialising in events and holidays for larger groups. The main house caters for up to 27 persons at any one time with the living areas and the many bedrooms and bathrooms throughout the property providing very comfortable surroundings for a wide variety of different guests throughout the year. The swimming pool complex, the games room and the extensive gardens and grounds with their patios, ponds, lawns and areas of woodland, as well as the attraction of the 5 alpacas that reside within one of the enclosed paddocks, add a great deal of quality, interest and entertainment to this endearing residence. CURRENTLY RUN AS A HOLIDAY LET BUSINESSAs a business, this property is a highly attractive proposition. The current owners have run the holiday let venture for many years and have been able to establish an excellent and loyal following with many repeat customers. Their guests are wide and varied but are often for special family events, celebrations and occasions where large groups of people can all be catered for and accordingly entertained during their stay. The on-site facilities, of course, are a major attraction and the wider area also has much to offer. Tariffs for bookings are variable and the current owners offer anything from a single night stay to full or multiple weeks at a time. For the 2024 season, the lowest weekly rates start from £4,521 and the highest £8,910. The best year, which was just after the Covid period, brought in a fantastic £223,000 for the 2021/22 season. As an average, £175,000 + per annum is generally very achievable. The property has its own website and the owners have chosen to manage the property themselves. They use a couple of other third party websites and worked hard on their Google rankings to ensure the house is very prominent in search criteria. The property's website and fixtures, fittings and contents are all available to purchase, pretty much as a 'going concern', if required and by separate negotiation.THE LOCATION AND SURROUNDINGSAs mentioned earlier, the property enjoys a great deal of privacy yet is located within easy reach of Ilfracombe's amenities. There are various shops, restaurants, wine bars and public houses, cafes, art galleries and the Landmark Theatre within the sea front area.

There is the immediate feeling of space upon entering the property through the large entrance porch and on into the spacious and welcoming entrance hall with its feature brick archway and the wide staircase which rises to the upper floors. Beneath the stairs there is excellent storage space. There are two generous sized reception rooms either side of the hallway. The 23ft x 16ft lounge has a bay window to the front which frames the views over the gardens to the Cairn and the Torrs. There are high ceilings with coving and a glazed door opens into a conservatory with double door access to the patio at the rear and the gardens. Across the hall is a sizeable dining room, again with a bay window and similar view. A feature tiled fireplace provides a focal point to the room. Adjacent to the dining room is an Orangery which has a terracotta tiled floor and overlooks the garden. Moving along the hall, the commodious kitchen/breakfast room is a practical yet functional living space with plenty of space for casual dining and sitting, relaxing with a morning coffee or breakfast. There is an extensive range of fitted base and wall units complimented by granite work surfaces and including a huge 'U' shaped breakfast bar and a further fitted corner dining table with bench seating. A range of free-standing and integrated appliances include a range style cooker set in a recess with an extractor canopy over, two dishwashers, a wine cooler and a American style fridge freezer with the freezer having a handy deli-drawer for ease of access. There is a door at the rear of the kitchen in to the attached garage. At present, the garage is used more as a games room and has a table tennis table in it and a tiled floor. A electrically operated door opens onto the parking and turning area. There is an electric vehicle charging point immediately adjacent to the garage. Leading from the garage is a plant room which houses 2 gas fired boilers for the heating and hot water. The boilers work in tandem in a failsafe arrangement; if one fails the other will still be able to cope. There is also a substantial 3 phase electricity cable ready for installation if required. The workings for the swimming pool are also in this area with the gas fired boiler, filter and pump. Also from the kitchen is a further door through into a side lobby which connects to the swimming pool complex and the 26ft log utility room which is a great practical area. There is a handy separate toilet as well. At the rear of the house, on the ground floor, there is a large bedroom suite which is perfect for elderly or disabled residents as there is step-free access to it. The bedroom is particularly spacious and has a modern en suite shower room. Moving to the first floor, the expansive landing has doors to 5 bedrooms, the main family bathroom and a staircase which leads to the second floor. There is also a handy linen store cupboard. Bedrooms 1, 2 and 3 are all good-sized rooms and are set-up, at present, to maximise occupancy for the holiday let market. All three have en suite shower rooms with modern fittings. Bedroom 3 is set-up as a family suite with an additional bunk room leading off. Bedrooms 4 and 5 are equally spacious rooms with bedroom 5 having a recessed area which is perfect to site an en suite shower room if required. Provisions are in place beneath the floorboards for water and waste for this. Across the landing is a large family bathroom which has a bath and a separate walk-in shower cubicle and a large airing cupboard.The top floor of the property provides quirky, characterful accommodation that could be used in a variety of ways. At present, due to the property's use as a holiday let, it is used to maximise the amount of people staying in the property. This area comprises a series of rooms which would make a suite, perfect for older or teenage children. There is a large dormer window to the front and various other Velux style windows all of which have electrically operated blinds. There is a further bathroom on this floor as well.The property benefits from gas fired central heating and has uPVC double glazing. Within the house is Emergency Lighting and a Nest Smoke Alarm system which connects to a smartphone to provide alerts and warnings. There is also a heat recovery ventilation system throughout the house as well. There are solar PV panels on the roof of the building that supplement the property's electricity supply and which provide a feed in tariff to the National Grid. There is a three-phase electricity cable within the main house which can be connected and used if required. This would potentially enable more solar PV panels to be added to perhaps help supply the heating system for the swimming pool. The main house and annexe have a separate electricity supply. THE SWIMMING POOL COMPLEXThe swimming pool complex sits immediately adjacent to the main house and is directly accessible from it. The pool room is very impressive and measures an expansive 58ft long by 38ft wide. The pool itself sits centrally within the room and has a tiled surround. The pool measures 40ft x 20ft and has a depth range of 0.9m (3ft) at the shallow end and 2.1m (6'10) at the deep end. There is an electrically operated pool cover and dehumidifiers throughout the room. The pool is heated via a gas fired boiler and is kept at a temperature of around 31 degrees Celsius. Within the pool room is a 6-person hot tub as well. At the rear of the pool room is a changing/shower room with two showers, a hand basin and a wc. There is also access to a further useful storage area.Sliding doors at the end of the room open onto a delightful and very private area of the garden where there is a large paved patio and outdoor entertaining space with a brick-built barbecue and plenty of space for outdoor furniture etc. This whole area provides a fabulous leisure facility and whether for personal use or as a benefit for holiday guests, this amenity really sets The Grange apart from other residences of its type. THE ANNEXE BUILDINGAcross from the main house is a separate and detached annexe building which offers further facilities and ancillary accommodation to the main house. The ground floor comprises a 24ft x 19ft games room. Again, this is a great amenity for permanent residents or holiday guests alike. A full sized snooker table currently occupies the room as well as a dart board. Adjacent to the games room is a 24ft long garage/workshop, great for storage, and with light and power. Steps at the side of the building lead up to the first floor where there is a self-contained flat. Access is via an entrance lobby which has a shower room and a separate wc leading off and a handy store cupboard. The heart of the home is the central 19ft long living room which enjoys pleasant open views over the gardens towards the Cairn and the Torrs. At the rear there is a modern and well-equipped kitchen which has base and wall units and integrated appliances including a hob with extractor canopy over, an oven, microwave, dishwasher and a fridge. Further on, there is a lobby opening into the two bedrooms, one at the front and one at the rear. At present, the rear bedroom is used as an office and has double doors leading directly out onto an area of patio and a garden which is allocated specifically to the annexe part of the property. The garden area comprises a well-screened and private paved patio with outside tap and light. A walkway from the patio leads to the side of the annexe building where there is a further sitting area with a rockery flowerbed. Steps lead up from the two patio areas to a larger area of garden which slopes up and away from the building and is laid mainly to lawn. A small spring feeds a garden pond which sits adjacent to a further patio and provides a particularly private and tranquil sitting area. Further up the garden is a summerhouse with a small deck in front. Beyond the garden area is an enclosed paddock where the five Alpacas reside!The annexe benefits from independent electric heating and uPVC double glazing; there is no gas in the building. As per the main house, there is also a heat recovery ventilation system throughout. Furthermore, the sizeable boarded loft space has skylights, light and power and is great for storage or possible conversion if required and subject to any necessary consent. THE GARDENS AND GROUNDSThe Grange sits within its own extensive landscaped gardens and grounds, approached via a private sweeping driveway. In total, there are 2.83 acres including delightful sunny amenity and outdoor entertaining areas, lawns, ponds, attractive planting and small wooded area. There is also the paddock where the Alpacas are kept. The tree-lined driveway winds up through the front garden, passing a large pond which sits down below the drive on the left-hand side. The drive terminates at a parking and turning area for several vehicles located to the side of the main building and in front of the annexe. There is direct vehicular access to the garage/store within the annexe building as well as the garage to the rear of the main house. The main area of garden sits in front of the main building and is immediately accessible from the house as well as the swimming pool complex. A paved patio/sun terrace stretches across the front of the house and provides a delightful outdoor entertaining area and a great spot for an al-fresco meal, barbecues, sun bathing and sitting out. The patio area extends around the swimming pool complex and there is the provision for an outdoor hot tub in place if required. A large lawned and tiered area of garden stretches out and away from the building and is well-screened, very private and ideal for a whole range of outdoor pursuits and enjoyment. Alongside this area is a further large garden pond which is fed by a natural spring from the hillside. The garden is bounded by mature trees and shrubs. Various pathways lead from this part of the garden and meander through the grounds and lead up and further away from the house over different levels. Around the middle area of the garden is a large and grassed stretch of ground/small paddock and this area is bounded by wire fencing with the Alpacas often allowed to roam through. Beyond that again is a level lawned area with a summerhouse. Beyond the summerhouse the grounds rise up to their apex where there is an area of woodland formed by mature fir trees. The grounds back onto open fields and woods. From the middle section of the garden, further pathways meander through and traverse the culverted spring and lead onto the Alpaca paddock which slopes up and away from the main house and the annexe. The paddock is enclosed on all sides and has a field shelter for the animals. The paddock backs onto the annexe garden area as described earlier. Back down at the bottom of the drive, there is a pathway/vehicular access which leads off to the right and travels towards a very useful stone built store/mower shed. AGENTS NOTE:The very first section of the drive leading off of Kingsley Avenue does not hold any registered title. In addition, the land immediately adjacent to the drive forms the pathway/vehicular access that leads to the stone built store/mower shed as mentioned above. Our clients have owned the property for very nearly 20 years and have always used and maintained the bottom end of the drive and the additional land as their own. The neighbouring property known as The Lodge does also cross the bottom end of the drive for access to their property.Applicants are advised to proceed from our offices in a westerly direction along the High Street. Pass through the traffic lights at Church Street and at the mini roundabout take the left hand exit onto St. Brannocks Road. Continue along St. Brannocks Road for approximately 550 metres taking the second left hand turn into Bicclescombe Park Road.
