Property code: OC-89696

This single-storey apartment is situated in The Links development and offers the best of both worlds. So, whether you’re looking for a calming retreat to rest and recharge or a place to get outdoors and embrace your adventurous side you can be sure to achieve both here. Surfers and kiteboarders enjoy catching waves at this popular beach and the state-of-the-art water sports centre provides tuition for those eager to try something new. Next door to the development is the ‘Royal Porthcawl’ golf club (0.5 miles) which offers spectacular sea views as you’re teeing off. Enjoy taking in the same stunning scenery on foot or bike via the coastal path which leads from Rest Bay to Kenfig Nature Reserve (less than 2 miles).

Drive through the electric gates taking in this splendid development before parking up and heading into the centre courtyard of this development. Once through the main external door, you can head through the front door of this calming and contemporary designed apartment into a spacious hallway where you will find plenty of storage space for all your beach things and outdoor accessories. You will feel cosy inside whatever the weather as the property benefits from underfloor heating throughout. Step through into the bright and light main living area, where you have a spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with large sliding doors leading out to the terrace area. Here you can curl up on the soft sofa with a good book or watch a movie with the family on the Smart TV and refuel your bodies for the next adventures within the well-equipped kitchen/diner that has everything you need for those family meals. Heading back through the hallway you will discover a large family bathroom with a shower over bath and WC. Across the hall is the first of the two bedrooms, a twin bedroom with day and night roller blinds and plenty of wardrobe space for your clothes. The master bedroom situated at the end of the corridor has its own large en-suite shower room and WC and a sumptuous king-size bed to provide you with a good night's sleep ahead of the day's explorations.

Enjoy a sundowner on the patio furniture in front of the main living area in the quiet courtyard. Bike storage is available in the courtyard, and you can walk straight down to the beach and coastal bath from your front door.
