A mature individual 3 bedroom, 2 reception room detached bungalow backing onto orchards & enjoying pleasant views in sought after village. EPC Band E.

Situation and amenities

Wayside enjoys a non-estate position, on the edge of the village, adjoining orchard and enjoying views over surrounding countryside and the River Taw valley. The village offers community facilities including a primary school, butchers shop / store, two pubs and regular bus service into Barnstaple. From the village, there is access to many fine walks in the district, including the Tarka Trail, and Bishops Tawton is always regarded as a popular village location in which to live, given its close proximity to Barnstaple, about 3 miles. As the regional centre, Barnstaple houses the area's main business, commercial, leisure and shopping venues. The town is also well known for its exclusive range of outlets, including all of the high street favourites, as well as a diverse selection of local stores. The Pannier Market dates back to the Saxon period, and trades in general goods, local crafts and collectables. The North Devon Leisure Centre provides many indoor pursuits, along with the Tarka Tennis Centre, both in Barnstaple. Live theatres are accessible at Barnstaple and Ilfracombe, and at Barnstaple, there is also access to the North Devon Link Road, through to Junction 27 of the M5, where Tiverton Parkway allows access to London Paddington in just over 2 hours. Exmoor is easily accessible, as are the safe, sandy, surfing beaches of Croyde, Saunton, Putsborough and Woolacombe. Fishing is available locally on the Rivers Taw and Torridge, whilst there are golf courses at Saunton and Westward Ho!.
