3 bed detached house for sale

Hillcrest Road, Barnstaple, Devon EX32

Nestled on the highly sought-after Hillcrest Road, this unique three-bedroom detached home is being offered to the market for the first time in over 50 years.

Lovingly owned and cared for, the property boasts a distinctive design, being the only one of its kind on the road. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a bright and spacious entrance hall with a striking vaulted ceiling that sets the tone for the individuality of the home. The generous triple-aspect lounge and dining room is filled with natural light and features patio doors opening directly onto the garden, creating an ideal space for relaxation or entertaining.

To the rear, the fitted kitchen offers a range of wall and base units, a pantry-style cupboard, and direct access to the garden via a side door. A separate boiler room provides additional storage. The ground floor also includes a single bedroom, ideal for use as a study or child’s room, along with a convenient WC.

Upstairs, the property offers two large double bedrooms, both of which are well-proportioned and served by a 3-piece suite family bathroom.

While some modernisation is required, the property presents a rare opportunity to create a truly bespoke home in a desirable location.

Externally, the property enjoys a fully enclosed westerly facing rear garden which enjoys a good degree of privacy, mainly laid to lawn with a patio area perfect for outdoor dining. There is side pedestrian access, in addition to a gated driveway for one vehicle and single garage with power and light. There is also scope to expand the parking area by redesigning the front garden if desired.

Offered with no onward chain, this home presents an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking space, potential, and a prime location.
