Turnkey freehold chalet in secluded forest setting, ideal as a holiday retreat or cash purchase.
Freehold two-bedroom chalet, sold fully furnished
A rare freehold, fully furnished two-bedroom chalet tucked into the peaceful Hartland Forest Golf & Leisure Park. The lodge offers bright open-plan living, private decking, and two parking spaces — an easy, low-maintenance escape for weekend breaks or longer stays. Set in a quiet, rural location between Bideford and Bude, some of North Devon’s most dramatic coastline is within easy driving distance.
Practical benefits include a separate electricity supply, double glazing, and communal upkeep covered by an annual service charge (approx. £2,815.72) that includes water, grounds maintenance and access upkeep. The site has very low local crime and excellent mobile signal, making it comfortable and connected for short-term occupation.
Important drawbacks to note: standard residential or buy-to-let mortgages are not available against these lodges, so purchase requires cash or specialist finance. Broadband speeds are very slow and main heating is by electric room heaters, which may raise running costs in cooler months. The plot is small and the layout suits holiday occupation more than full-time family living.
This lodge will appeal to buyers seeking a turnkey countryside retreat, a holiday base close to beaches and golf, or a furnished holiday letting opportunity for cash buyers. It’s presented well and ready to enjoy, but assess heating and broadband needs and financing arrangements before committing.
