An exceptional opportunity to secure a stylish and highly adaptable architecturally designed family home in one of North Devon’s most desirable residential areas off Raleigh Hill. Quietly positioned in a quiet side road, Stone Leigh is a generously proportioned detached property that combines contemporary design with superb everyday practicality.

Offering five bedrooms, a beautifully arranged west-facing garden, and a substantial multi-purpose outbuilding, this is a home perfectly suited to modern family life. Its location places you within easy reach of Bideford town centre, Victoria Park, and The Quay.

On arrival, the property immediately impresses. A broad, bloc-paved driveway set across two levels provides extensive parking and gives access to both the main residence and the detached outbuilding. Secure gates lead into an attractively designed, low-maintenance front garden, bordered by charming stone walls that create privacy while enhancing the overall kerb appeal.

Inside, the sense of space and natural light is immediately in abundance. The welcoming Living Room serves as the social hub of the home, featuring wide bi-fold doors that open directly onto the garden, effortlessly extending the living area outdoors. This flows into the beautifully appointed open-plan Kitchen/Dining Room, complete with a central island, integrated appliances, and sleek contemporary finishes, ideal for both family gatherings and relaxed entertaining. A separate utility room adds day-to-day practicality, while solar panels contribute to energy efficiency and reduced running costs.

The ground floor is completed by a versatile fifth bedroom/study and a well-placed cloakroom, offering excellent flexibility for guests, home working or multi-generational living.

Upstairs, the master bedroom offers a luxurious space overlooking the front of the house. A striking vaulted ceiling enhances the sense of space, while the Juliet balcony invites natural light and provides a lovely outlook. The room is complemented by a beautifully designed en-suite shower room, adding a boutique, hotel-like feel. bedroom two also enjoys its own Juliet balcony with views over the rear garden, and two additional bedrooms are served by a sleek and contemporary family bathroom, ensuring ample space and comfort for family and guests.

Outside, the west-facing garden is one of the property’s standout features. Expertly landscaped, it has been arranged into a series of inviting terraces, each creating its own atmosphere — from sunny seating areas to a charming pergola, perfect for alfresco dining or simply unwinding while taking in the surrounding countryside.

Further enhancing the home’s versatility is the substantial detached outbuilding, offering a wealth of potential uses. The ground floor provides an oversized garage with electric door and an adjoining workshop, ideal for hobbies or storage. The first floor has been thoughtfully converted into a fully carpeted studio/office, complete with Velux windows that flood the space with light. With services conveniently close, this building could be adapted into a dedicated home office, creative studio, or even a self-contained Airbnb-style annexe, subject to any necessary consents.
