Summary - FORT HOUSE, ALEXANDRA ROAD, BARNSTAPLE EX32 8FD
5 bed 2 bath Not Specified
Substantial period property ideal for investors or dual-family living, chain-free.
Two-bed ground flat plus 2/3-bed maisonette with separate access
A substantial period property arranged over three floors, Fort House offers clear rental and multi-occupancy appeal. Internally the building is configured as a two-bedroom ground-floor flat plus a separate 2/3-bedroom maisonette, each with independent access — an arrangement that suits dual-family occupation or strong lettings demand. Off-road parking for four cars and additional residents’ parking close by is a notable asset so near the town centre.
The accommodation blends period character with modern comforts: UPVC double glazing and gas central heating provide practical efficiency, and many rooms are ready for immediate occupation. A small private courtyard garden provides outdoor space for the ground-floor flat; there is scope to reconfigure external areas to give more private garden space to the upper maisonette if required. The property is offered chain-free for a swift transaction.
Important considerations: the building sits in an area with high crime levels and pronounced deprivation, which will affect tenant profiles, resale positioning and may influence rental yields. The plot is modest and some images/notes indicate parts of the property will benefit from updating or cosmetic attention — factor refurbishment costs into any purchase calculation. Tenure details are unknown and should be confirmed.
For investors or households wanting multi-generational living close to Barnstaple town centre, this mixed-use layout and central location present a practical, adaptable opportunity with clear income potential. Early inspection recommended to assess condition, layout options and any necessary works.
