Summary - Bobbin Lane, Barnstaple, Devon, EX32 EX32 7FN
3 bed 2 bath Apartment
Characterful three-bedroom open-plan apartment ideal for first-time buyers.
Grade II listed converted mill — historic character, may restrict alterations
Set within the Laceworks development, this three-bedroom apartment blends industrial period character with contemporary open-plan living. Tall ceilings, large arched windows and exposed brick create a bright, airy interior that suits social living and home working. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite; two further bedrooms and a family bathroom provide flexible space for a small family or sharer household.
The building is a sympathetically restored Grade II listed former lace mill (built 1825), so the apartment benefits from historic charm and quality finishes. The open-plan kitchen/dining/living area is designed for everyday use and entertaining, with generous worktop space and modern fittings. A useful store cupboard adds practical storage.
Buyers should note the listed status may restrict future alterations and could add complexity or cost to repairs and permissions. The property is freehold, 981 sqft overall and set in a city/major town location with nearby schools rated Good, and is a short drive from North Devon’s coastline. The surrounding area is described as very deprived, which may affect local services and long-term resale considerations.
This apartment suits first-time buyers and professionals seeking characterful, low-maintenance living in a converted mill with modern comforts — subject to the constraints that come with a listed historic building.
