ABOUT THE PROPERTY

Glenrowan represents a substantial elegant residence which has dramatically evolved with significant enlargement since constructed centuries ago. The seven bedroomed accommodation extends to almost 5500 sq ft, providing tremendous versatility and space throughout and may suit those seeking dual occupancy or multi-generational living. Glenrowan occupies an extremely private tucked away position providing an established and exclusive setting within the desirable Orchard Hill area of Bideford, just a short distance from the town amenities. The property is attached by just one original wall to the adjoining private residence, Glenville. Glenrowan in all, extends to about 0.36 Acres.

This wonderful unique residence is believed to have started life hundreds of years ago as a traditional Devon long house, combining the adjoining dwelling and was home to the Vincent family in the late 1800s where the façade was added as part of an extension programme to cater for their large family. This family owned Vincent & Duncan's Collar factory within Bideford at that time. Later, the house was owned by local businessman, Thomas Burton, who established the Burton Gallery in 1951 in Bideford.

Despite its heritage, Glenrowan is not listed and exhibits many original and period features, including marble fireplaces, oak panelling, cornicing, picture and dado rails, Victorian sash windows and an impressive double hearth chimney which was unearthed by the current owners in what is now a cosy living room. The current vendors have tastefully modernised and transformed the property back to the glorious house it once was allowing further opportunity for purchasers to add their mark to this beautiful family residence.

Enjoying lots of natural light, the adaptable accommodation comprises; a glazed entrance veranda, large hallway leading through the central section of the property and to the attractive stairwell to the first floor. Living room with dual chimney's one housing a woodburning stove. A smartly appointed and open plan farmhouse style kitchen/dining room with secondary stairs to first floor together with a rear entrance. Drawing room/study and an impressive dining room with feature fireplace. A large wet room, utility and adjoining studio with further shower room and store with mezzanine above are also situated on the ground floor. From the main hall, an additional stairs lead to a lower ground floor games room, which would make a superb cinema room. The first floor offers a galleried landing providing access to seven well proportioned double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom.
