Set in a peaceful hamlet near Barnstaple, this detached two-bedroom bungalow occupies a large sunny plot with sweeping valley views. The bright lounge opens to a sun room and flows through to a dual-aspect dining room, creating generous, adaptable living space. A separate kitchen and walk-through utility provide practical daily use, while a four-piece bathroom and fitted bedroom storage add convenience.
The property offers clear scope for improvement and modernisation — the bathroom, some internal finishes and systems would benefit from updating. Heating is oil-fired with an older boiler and the double glazing was installed before 2002. These factors present an opportunity to add value for a buyer prepared to refurbish.
Standout extras include a fully insulated workshop with power and lighting (useful for hobbies or possible conversion), a lean-to garage, and extensive driveway parking for up to ten vehicles. The large front and rear gardens feature wild lawn, mature shrubs, productive areas, greenhouse and raised beds — ideal for gardening or outdoor hobbies.
Located close to woodland walks, Exmoor and North Devon’s coast, the bungalow suits someone seeking a quiet, semi-rural lifestyle within easy reach of Barnstaple and local village amenities. Freehold tenure and very low local crime add practical reassurance. Buyers should note the property’s renovation requirement and rural setting when considering access and future running costs.
