Standing proudly on Ilfracombe’s historic waterfront, 2 The Strand is a Grade II listed mid-terrace property that forms part of one of the town’s most striking and significant rows of houses. Dating back to the eighteenth century, these homes are regarded as an important feature of the harbour, adding character and presence to this much-loved coastal setting. Just a stone’s throw from the harbour and beach, the property offers the rare combination of heritage, space, and outstanding views in one of North Devon’s most desirable locations.
The accommodation unfolds across four floors and is both generous and versatile. On the ground floor a welcoming dining room and kitchen create a natural hub for the household, with a utility area to the rear leading out into a small courtyard with useful storage. The first floor is home to a spacious lounge, a room that makes the most of its position with large windows framing spectacular views over the harbour. Also on this level is a comfortable double bedroom.
Rising to the second floor, two further bedrooms are complemented by a well-appointed family bathroom, while the top floor offers two additional bedrooms and a second bathroom, providing flexible living space for families, guests, or those working from home. The rooms throughout are tidy and well-proportioned, allowing the character of the building and its remarkable setting to take centre stage.
The property’s period origins are still felt in its characterful layout and sense of history, yet it remains practical for modern living. The elevated outlook ensures that the harbour views are among the finest in Ilfracombe, whether enjoyed from the lounge, upper bedrooms, or simply stepping outside the front door.
To the rear, the courtyard provides a private and practical outdoor area, ideal for storage or as a sheltered spot to enjoy a morning coffee before heading down to the harbour. The location could not be more convenient, with Ilfracombe Harbour only moments away, offering an eclectic mix of cafés, restaurants, galleries, and shops. The beach is a short stroll, while the dramatic South West Coast Path and surrounding countryside provide endless opportunities for walking and exploration. Barnstaple and the wider North Devon area are within easy reach, ensuring excellent transport links.
2 The Strand is much more than a house. It is a piece of Ilfracombe’s history, a home with space, character, and views that are simply outstanding. Whether sought as a full-time residence, a holiday retreat by the sea, or an investment in a thriving coastal town, this remarkable property represents a rare opportunity to secure a true harbourfront gem.
