Property description

A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial and distinctive freehold property in the ever-popular coastal village of Woolacombe, Stable Lea is a beautifully converted former mill building offering four spacious and self-contained apartments. Set over four levels and extending to approximately 3,540 square feet, the property presents an ideal purchase for investors, multigenerational families, or anyone seeking a home with income potential in one of North Devon?s most desirable locations.

The building comprises three two-bedroom apartments and one three-bedroom apartment, each accessed independently and benefiting from oil-fired central heating (all four properties run on the same heating system). Externally, there is off-road parking for several vehicles, a shared communal garden area, and a private decked terrace for one of the apartments. Holiday letting is not permitted, ensuring a peaceful residential setting suited for long-term tenancy or full-time occupation.

Flat One occupies the ground floor of the original mill building and is rich in character, with a generous open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining room featuring a striking stone fireplace as its focal point. The two double bedrooms are well-proportioned, and the accommodation is completed by a modern shower room. Flat Two is the most recently modernised of the four and offers two double bedrooms, both with stylish en suite. The layout flows naturally into a bright and contemporary living and dining area, making it ideal for professionals or tenants seeking modern comfort.

Flat Three, arranged over two levels, is a substantial three-bedroom apartment that features a large lounge and dining room, a family bathroom, and a well-equipped, flood-lit kitchen which opens directly onto a private decked terrace ? A wonderful space for entertaining or quiet enjoyment of the countryside surroundings. This flat also includes a sizeable loft space, ideal for storage or potential workspace use, subject to relevant permissions.

Flat Four is located on the first floor and offers yet another spacious open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining room, opening onto its own private roof terrace, perfect for enjoying the evening sun. This apartment also benefits from a beautifully finished four-piece bathroom suite, adding a touch of modern luxury to a well-appointed and inviting home.

Situated in a quiet and elevated spot within Woolacombe, the property enjoys easy access to the award-winning beach, stunning coastal walks, and the vibrant village centre, which offers a variety of shops, caf?s, pubs and local amenities. Larger towns such as Ilfracombe and Barnstaple are just a short drive away and provide additional services, schools, and transport links.

The Old Mill is a truly unique offering ? Spacious, flexible and full of charm, with enormous potential for income or family occupation. Its freehold status, generous proportions and prime coastal location make it a compelling prospect for a wide range of buyers looking to secure a long-term asset in one of North Devon?s most sought-after destinations.

Agent Notes: To the rear of the property, an attached room is linked to The Old Mill across the road, for which access is required.
