Owner's comments
"We have lived in our house for 31 years and we have loved every minute of it. It’s a home full of memories, laughter and love. It’s close to town and we have a great view too. Many of our neighbours have been here longer than we have so it’s a well loved place to live! We want someone to love our house as much as we have."
Accommodation
The front door opens into an entrance with stairs rising to the first floor, and flowing into the main reception space. This sitting room has a window to the front aspect and together with the dining area, makes for a very sociable open plan space. Previously extended by the current owners behind the garage, the kitchen has been expanded to make for a large, modern space with breakfast area before a door heads out to the rear garden. Windows overlook the garden from an elevated position, while the kitchen itself is fully fitted with an abundance of wall and base cupboards for storage, with worktop space aplenty. There is an inset stainless steel sink/drainer underneath the window, with an electric cooker and five-ring gas hob and extractor canopy over. Space is provided for a range of appliances including a counter high fridge and freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer.
Heading upstairs, the main bedroom also forms part of the extension, creating an en-suite bathroom which is fitted with a white suite together with chrome fitments, and includes a WC, wash hand basin and a panelled bath with a fully tiled surround. The bedroom itself stretches to over 20ft in length, while bedroom two is another generous, square double room. The third bedroom is a smaller double room and each are served by a family shower room which consists of a WC, wash hand basin and enclosed shower cubicle.
Outside & parking
A hard standing and brick paved area to the front creates the driveway with space to park at least two vehicles. Access is provided to the left hand side, through a pedestrian gate and down a few steps into the rear garden. Steps lead down from the back door onto a patio spanning the width of the property. Here there is a timber storage shed, veggie patch and greenhouse, as well as a lovely, secluded seating area laid with composite decking. Additionally, there is access to another useful storage space under the house itself.
The property is located conveniently for access into the town centre of Barnstaple, yet just about far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the traffic outside your front door. Every day amenities are within just a few minutes' walk, while Our Lady's Catholic Primary School is just 1/3 of a mile up the road and the well regarded Park Community Secondary School is also walkable in around 25 minutes. Close proximity to the town also comes with easy accessibility to the locally renowned Rock Park, as is access onto the popular Tarka Trail. Barnstaple plays host to numerous well known and independent high street shops, supermarkets, department stores, pubs, cafes, restaurants and leisure facilities. The popular sandy surfing beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are within around 20-30 minutes drive, as is the border of Exmoor National Park. Along the A361, Tiverton Parkway train station with fast services to London Paddington can be reached in approximately 45 minutes, as can the M5 network and beyond, also from Junction 27 at Tiverton. Other notable areas for further shopping include Exeter in around an hour's drive, and the Cornish border within about a 40 minute drive.
