This compact Victorian terraced cottage offers an affordable, chain-free entry to Bideford town centre with genuine renovation potential. With two bedrooms and a combined sitting/dining room, the layout suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a straightforward project close to local amenities and good schools.
The property already has uPVC double glazing and mains services; the EPC is D (68) and council tax is Band A, keeping running costs relatively low. The small, enclosed rear garden is a blank canvas for low-maintenance landscaping or a simple patio, though it is not fully private.
Major updates are required: heating is by electric room heaters, walls are likely uninsulated granite, and the house needs general modernisation. There are signs the building may be susceptible to damp and the area records higher crime and deprivation levels, which should factor into renovation and security plans.
Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, and a central town location near shops, schools and transport. Sold freehold and with no onward chain, the house is ready for immediate purchase and improvement.
