High Cross is a spacious four-bedroom detached home set in the heart of Bishops Tawton, elevated to take in far-reaching countryside views. The house blends period character — high ceilings, large rooms and granite walls — with practical updates including a modern kitchen, double glazing (post-2002) and gas central heating. The property comes to market chain free and is ready to occupy while offering clear scope to personalise further.
Ground-floor living is generous: two reception rooms, a contemporary kitchen with utility area, a convenient WC and a rear porch that opens onto a private, well-landscaped garden. The rear aspect and upper converted loft capitalise on the views and provide flexible space for a home office, playroom or guest suite, subject to any required consents. There is a garage plus off-street parking for more practical day-to-day living.
Buyers should note a single family bathroom serves four bedrooms, which may prompt reconfiguration for larger households. The house was constructed before 1900 with granite walls and assumed no wall insulation, so further insulation or energy-efficiency works could be beneficial. Overall condition is described as good, but buyers seeking a turnkey modern specification should allow budget for targeted updating.
Located within walking distance of village amenities, local primary schools rated Good, and scenic walks on the doorstep, this property suits families or professionals wanting village life with easy access to Barnstaple. Broadband speeds are fast and council tax is described as affordable, supporting practical family life in a peaceful rural setting.
