Encompassed with charm and history, welcome to Geneva Place, a stunning conversion of a former Victorian school that perfectly blends heritage with modern comfort. This one-bedroom, two-storey maisonette offers a peaceful sanctuary that is ideal for first-time buyers seeking a turn-key home, investors looking for a high-quality rental, or those searching for a manageable retirement spot.
The property is conveniently situated in Bideford's historic ”Old Town” quarter, placing you just moments away from the charming Pannier Market with its artisan shops and the picturesque tree-lined quay.
Stepping over the threshold from the communal hall, you are greeted by a handy entrance hall featuring a built-in storage cupboard. To your left, a modern three-piece shower room awaits, boasting a sleek walk-in unit, toilet and washbasin. Continuing down the hallway, the spacious first bedroom offers an abundance of natural light, ample room for freestanding furniture, and a practical under-stairs storage cupboard.
Moving upstairs, the home opens into an impressive open-plan living and kitchen area that serves as a cosy yet spacious place to unwind. The kitchen is well-equipped with dedicated space for both a dishwasher and washing machine, while the entire room is bathed in light from south-facing windows fitted with elegant shutters.
Beyond the interior, the property benefits from efficient electric heating and access to beautifully maintained communal gardens. Practicality is further enhanced by private off-road parking and excellent local transport links, including nearby bus stops that provide easy access to the wider North Devon area. This prime location also places you within easy reach of local amenities. Whether you enjoy a stroll through Victoria Park or a cycle along the famous Tarka Trail, this property offers an exceptional lifestyle in the heart of Bideford.
