8 bed detached house for sale

Beach Road, Westward Ho, Bideford EX39

Introducing The White House, a striking detached property just a short stroll from Westward Ho’s magnificent sandy beach, its lively selection of shops, cafés and bars, and the renowned Royal North Devon Golf Club. With its distinctive whitewashed façade, generous parking and instantly appealing presence, this iconic home is designed to catch the eye the moment you arrive.

The property has proved itself equally successful as a comfortable family home and as a thriving bed and breakfast. It is thought to be ideal for an investment buyer wishing to continue the bed and breakfast business, or for a multi-generation family, particularly as there is a superb 2 Bedroom detached annexe set within the garden.

From the front, the house enjoys impressive kerb appeal with a wide driveway providing plentiful off-road parking, complemented by an attractive front garden with an ornamental tree. A crazy-paved path leads around to a large lawned side garden, which, in turn, connects to the rear garden and the entrance to the annexe.

The main house offers considerable versatility and can be arranged to suit a variety of preferences. It is currently laid out over 3 floors, in addition to a large cellar.

The ground floor is arranged to include a modern Kitchen with breakfast bar, an impressive formal Dining Room, a Utility Room and 3 spacious En-suite Bedrooms. On the first floor there are 3 further Bedrooms (1 En-suite) together with a 4-piece Bathroom. This level also benefits from a superb elevated Conservatory, perfectly positioned to enjoy exceptional sea views.

Stairs rise again to the upper floor where 3 additional rooms can be found. These have limited ceiling height and require some upkeep, which is why they have not been included in the official bedroom count.

To the rear of the house lies a fully enclosed lawned garden with a patio area and a couple of useful storage sheds.

The 2 Bedroom annexe is very well-presented and offers an open-plan living space incorporating the Kitchen, Dining and Sitting area, along with 2 double Bedrooms and a Shower Room. An area of decking to the front provides a pleasant spot to sit out and relax.

The White House represents a rare opportunity to secure a truly exceptional property in a rapidly growing coastal location. Whether you are seeking an inviting permanent residence or a lucrative bed and breakfast venture, this home delivers remarkable potential.
