Accommodation

The property is approached via a small private road, with the front entrance conveniently positioned to the side of the home. Stepping inside, a spacious and welcoming entrance hallway immediately creates a favourable first impression, with natural light filtering through a skylight above. Positioned towards the rear of the property is the stunning newly fitted kitchen, undoubtedly one of the home’s standout features. Forming part of an attractive extension, this impressive space enjoys an abundance of natural light courtesy of its fully glazed roof, creating a bright and inviting environment for everyday living. The kitchen has been finished to an excellent contemporary standard, incorporating a comprehensive range of stylish wall and base storage cupboards and drawers, complemented by generous work surface areas. Integrated appliances include an eye-level electric oven, four-ring induction hob with extractor canopy over, and dishwasher, whilst additional space is provided for a large freestanding American-style fridge freezer. A composite one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer is positioned beneath a window overlooking the rear garden, and a glazed external door provides direct access to the patio. Underfloor heating runs throughout the entire ground floor, adding to the high specification finish. The combination of contemporary fittings, extensive glazing and thoughtfully designed accommodation makes this a particularly attractive addition to the original home, providing a striking contrast to its more traditional features.

Also accessed from the entrance hallway is a useful utility room, which doubles as a convenient ground-floor cloakroom. This practical space provides room for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with eye-level storage cupboards, a WC, wash basin with vanity unit and chrome heated towel rail. Completing the ground-floor accommodation is the wonderfully spacious sitting and dining room, extending to approximately 25’9” in length. This impressive reception area offers ample room for comfortable seating and dining furniture, making it an ideal environment for entertaining guests or enjoying time with family. An attractive exposed stone wall provides a charming focal point, complemented by a tiled fireplace and traditional sash windows overlooking the front aspect. Newly laid tiled flooring extends throughout, providing a stylish and practical finish, whilst useful built-in cupboards and understairs storage add further convenience. The room successfully combines the character of the original building with the clean lines and fresh presentation of the recent refurbishment.

Stairs rise from the reception room to the first-floor landing, providing access to two bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom two is a particularly generous double room positioned at the front of the property, enjoying a pleasant dual aspect with an impressive, almost floor-to-ceiling sash window to the front and an additional window to the side. Two attractive curved alcoves positioned either side of the original fireplace recess provide further character and offer useful opportunities for bedroom furniture or decorative features. Bedroom four is positioned towards the rear and provides a versatile additional room, suitable for use as a smaller double bedroom, nursery, home office or guest accommodation, depending on individual requirements. A window overlooking the rear aspect provides natural light. Serving both bedrooms is the beautifully refurbished family bathroom, featuring a contemporary suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, WC and wash basin. The room benefits from a fully tiled surround and enjoys natural light from windows to two aspects.

A further staircase rises to the second floor, where a window to the side aspect illuminates the landing and provides access to two additional double bedrooms and a separate shower room. The principal bedroom is an excellent-sized double room, enjoying a bright dual aspect and offering generous space for bedroom furniture. Its elevated position and attractive proportions make it a particularly appealing main bedroom. Bedroom three is another comfortable double room, positioned towards the rear of the property and enjoying pleasant elevated views across the surrounding countryside. This is another versatile space, equally suitable for family members or visiting guests. Completing the accommodation is a stylishly appointed second-floor shower room, finished to the same impressive standard as the remainder of the property. The contemporary suite includes a generous walk-in shower enclosure, WC, floating wash basin with vanity unit and chrome heated towel rail. Fully tiled surrounds create a smart and modern finish, whilst a window to the rear aspect provides natural light and ventilation.

Throughout the accommodation, the comprehensive refurbishment is immediately apparent, with fresh decoration, newly fitted flooring and carpets, contemporary downlighting and updated fixtures and fittings contributing towards an exceptionally well-presented home. With the extensive renovation works already completed, the property provides a wonderful opportunity to move straight in and enjoy a beautifully finished home from day one.

Outside & parking

To the rear is an attractive and deceptively spacious garden, which has been newly landscaped to provide an appealing combination of outdoor entertaining space and lawn. Directly accessed from the kitchen is a newly laid paved patio, creating a delightful setting for outdoor dining, garden furniture and enjoying the warmer months. This area provides a natural extension of the kitchen and offers an ideal space for entertaining family and friends. A couple of steps rise from the patio to a newly turfed lawn, which is slightly elevated and neatly separated by attractive brick edging. New fencing has been installed along the right-hand boundary, whilst a brick wall defines the opposite side, creating a smart and well-presented outdoor environment.

The garden enjoys a pleasant open feel and offers a surprisingly generous amount of outside space, particularly considering the property’s convenient position close to Barnstaple town centre. A further notable advantage is the private gravelled driveway to the rear, providing off-road parking for two vehicles, where there is also a handy EV charger hooked up. With the gardens newly landscaped, the interior comprehensively renovated and the property available with vacant possession, this impressive home is offered for sale with no onward chain and represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a characterful property in truly move-in-ready condition.
