Nestholme is a spacious detached bungalow set in a peaceful Barnstaple Cross setting, offering single-level living with the upside of two additional loft rooms. The house sits on a substantial, level plot with formal lawns, mature boundaries and a generous paved terrace — ideal for outdoor living, gardening or safe play. The sweeping driveway, carport and garage provide ample parking and privacy for multiple vehicles.
Internally the home is presented in good order with a practical layout: three main bedrooms and a loft conversion providing two further versatile rooms used intermittently as bedrooms or home offices. The property enjoys far-reaching rural views and feels tucked away while remaining within reach of local amenities and good primary and secondary schools.
There are a few practical points to note. Services include mains gas central heating and private drainage; council tax is above average (Band E). Insulation is partial (cavity wall, assumed), the property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s so some systems may be original, and there is only one bathroom. Broadband and mobile details vary between reports — broadband has been recorded as very slow in one dataset but FTTC/‘superfast’ is also mentioned; mobile signal reports are mixed. These factors are important for buyers who need high-speed connectivity.
Overall this property will suit downsizers seeking accessible single-storey living, families wanting generous garden amenity, or buyers looking for a quietly located home with scope for modest improvements or extension (subject to planning). It is offered with no onward chain, making for a straightforward purchase for the right buyer.
