Accommodation

The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hallway, with stairs rising to the first floor and a convenient cloakroom positioned to the right, complete with a WC and wash basin. A door leads into the spacious and naturally bright sitting room, providing an attractive and comfortable setting for relaxation and entertaining. Double doors open through to a separate dining area, creating a sociable connection between the two reception spaces whilst retaining the flexibility of individual rooms. The dining area benefits from a particularly useful understairs storage cupboard and French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to flow into the room and providing a lovely connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. An opening leads through to the adjoining fitted kitchen, which offers an extensive range of wall and base storage cupboards and drawers, complemented by ample work surface space. Integrated appliances include an electric oven with a four-ring gas hob and extractor canopy above, whilst a sink and drainer sits beneath a window overlooking the rear garden. Additional space is provided for a freestanding fridge freezer and washing machine, with a cupboard discreetly housing the modern combination boiler. An exciting opportunity exists to further enhance the ground-floor accommodation, as the stud partition wall separating the kitchen and dining area could potentially be removed, subject to any necessary checks and consents, to create a more contemporary open-plan kitchen/dining space.

Heading upstairs, the first-floor landing is another bright and spacious area, naturally illuminated by a window to the side aspect. From here, doors provide access to all three bedrooms, the family bathroom and a useful airing cupboard. The main bedroom is positioned at the rear of the home and is a generously proportioned double room, enjoying a pleasant outlook across the established rear garden. Substantial fitted wardrobes provide excellent storage whilst leaving ample space for additional bedroom furniture. The second bedroom, situated at the front of the property, is another comfortable double room, also benefiting from built-in wardrobes. The third bedroom is a good-sized single room, equally suited to use as a child’s bedroom, nursery or home office, and features a useful storage cupboard positioned above the stairs. Serving all three bedrooms is the family bathroom, comprising a panelled bath with shower over, WC and wash basin, complemented by partially tiled walls and an obscure-glazed window to the rear aspect. The property has recently benefited from a comprehensive programme of cosmetic improvements, having been freshly painted and decorated throughout. Brand-new carpets have been fitted to the sitting room, bedrooms, hallway, stairs and landing, whilst new flooring has also been laid in the kitchen, dining area, family bathroom and ground-floor cloakroom. These improvements create a fresh and inviting interior, allowing prospective purchasers to move straight in and enjoy their new home.

Outside & parking

Outside, the property is approached via a tarmac driveway providing off-road parking and leading to a detached garage, accessed through a traditional up-and-over door. An additional parking space is available to the front of the property, where an area laid to shingle offers further convenience. The front garden is predominantly laid to decorative shingle, with an established hedgerow forming an attractive boundary. Mature shrubs add character, greenery and a welcome degree of privacy. A pedestrian gate between the house and garage provides access to a generous side passage, offering a particularly practical space for storing recycling bins, water butts or potentially establishing a small vegetable-growing area. A pathway continues through to the rear garden.

The rear garden is a particularly attractive feature of the home, enjoying a desirable south-easterly facing aspect and offering a beautifully established outdoor space. A paved patio extends across the width of the property, immediately adjoining the rear of the house and providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing in the sunshine. Beyond the patio, a neatly maintained lawn forms the centrepiece of the garden, surrounded by an attractive variety of established shrubs, colourful planting and small trees. A low brick retaining wall creates raised planting beds around the garden, adding further character, texture and seasonal interest to this delightful outdoor setting. Combining generous and versatile accommodation with recent cosmetic improvements, excellent parking facilities and a charming established garden, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a much-loved home in one of Barnstaple’s most sought-after residential areas.
