Property description
Situation
Westleigh is a charming small village situated overlooking the River Torridge & Estuary virtually midway between the principal North Devon towns of Bideford and Barnstaple. The village itself is mostly made up of cottages and older housing with an historic church and well thought of pub/restaurant. There are lovely walks in the area particularly alongside the river on the Tarka Trail which is a haven for cycling and walking whilst there are excellent boating and yachting facilities at nearby Instow.
Description
Converted about 15 years ago from an original Wesleyan chapel the property is of intriguing charm and character with a wealth of pine including doors and floors and the accommodation arranged on 3 floors with a feature being the quite superb and spacious lounge/diner on the first floor with a gas fired coal effect stove, triple aspect windows and views over the village to the River Estuary beyond. The ground floor includes 2 bedrooms and a particularly well fitted kitchen and bathroom whilst on 2nd floor is a large master bedroom with an en suite shower room. Integral to the accommodation is a small garage/store which could be added to the accommodation if required subject to the necessary consents while externally there is a car standing space with surrounding flower borders. Considered ideal for holiday or permanent use the whole of the property has been very well maintained and worthy of a full internal inspection.
