Summary - OLD NURSERIES 2 BARBICAN ROAD BARNSTAPLE EX32 9HW
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Tucked-away five-bedroom home with annexe, large gardens and ample parking — walking distance to town.
Five-bedroom detached house with self-contained annexe
A substantial and individual five-bedroom detached home with a self-contained annexe, tucked away on a private lane yet within easy walking distance of Barnstaple town centre. The house, extended and modernised since its 1970s construction, sits in generous, secluded gardens with multiple patios, decking and extensive off-street parking — ideal for families needing space, multi-generational households or buyers seeking rental income from the annexe.
Internally the layout is versatile: a light-filled sitting room with wood burner and French doors to the garden, a modern high-gloss kitchen, separate reception room and ground-floor WC. Four double bedrooms occupy the first floor of the main house (principal with en-suite) while the annexe provides independent living with its own kitchen, living room and first-floor bedroom with en-suite and Juliet balcony.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating, double glazing, EPC Band C and a large private plot that offers outside living and potential landscaping or garden projects. The property is freehold and benefits from easy access to local transport links, schools and North Devon’s coastline within driving distance.
Notable considerations: the house was originally built in the 1970s so some areas may benefit from updating rather than a full refurbishment. There is a medium flood risk for the location and a vehicular right of way across the front of the property which should be reviewed. Parts of the wider area show higher deprivation indicators; buyers should check insurance and local services accordingly.
