5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Shirwell Road, Barnstaple, Devon EX31

Positioned in an elevated setting within Burridge, on the outskirts of Pilton and Barnstaple, Grasmere is a spacious five-bedroom semi-detached family home enjoying far-reaching countryside views to both the front and rear.

Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated in recent years, the property offers generous and versatile accommodation throughout. The layout includes five well-proportioned bedrooms, with an en suite to the principal bedroom, a family bathroom, a snug, and a large open-plan lounge/dining room. Both main reception areas take full advantage of the panoramic front-facing views, while a striking double-aspect log burner creates a warm and inviting focal point between the lounge and dining room.

The well-equipped kitchen features modern fittings and an electric range-style cooker, complemented by a separate breakfast room, ideal for everyday family living. The ground floor also benefits from a WC and a practical utility room with an excellent range of fitted cupboards, including a useful larder, together with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

Outside, the property continues to impress. To the front, there is ample driveway parking alongside a generous garden. Gated side pedestrian access, complete with a built-in log store and outside tap, leads through to the enclosed rear garden, where a patio and lawn provide an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining. Backing onto a track and open fields, the garden further enhances the property's attractive semi-rural setting and enjoys beautiful countryside views.
From Barnstaple, proceed towards Lynton, passing North Devon District Hospital. Continue past the Ilfracombe turning, and after a short distance the entrance to Grasmere will be found on the right-hand side, clearly marked by a For Sale board.
