Exceptionally presented detached 2-bedroom bungalow on a generous south-facing plot, recently refurbished and offered chain-free. The accommodation feels bright and airy thanks to large windows, a conservatory-style entrance and a well-proportioned living room and dining area opening to the rear garden. The plot measures approximately 69' x 57', providing a level lawned garden, patio/deck and room for gardening or accessible outdoor seating.
Practical upgrades include a new 2024 gas combination boiler, UPVC double glazing and a recently replaced consumer unit in the garage. Driveway parking for two cars and an attached single garage increase ease of ownership, and the property is freehold with affordable Council Tax (Band C). Its village setting places it about 1½ miles from the Instow estuary and roughly equidistant between Barnstaple and Bideford, suitable for quieter retirement living or downsizers seeking a rural-coastal balance.
Buyers should note a small list of finishing works remain: the bath and shower room are in the process of completion and some floor coverings are due to be laid. The bungalow dates from the mid-20th century (circa 1950–1966) with cavity-filled walls; while recently refurbished, this age means some traditional elements remain. Mobile signal is average and the location is classified as a remoter community, which suits peaceful living but may mean fewer local services on the doorstep.
Overall this bungalow offers comfortable, low-maintenance single-story living with a large garden, recent mechanical upgrades and genuine scope to move in soon once the final refurbishments are completed. It will especially suit buyers looking to downsize or retire to a quiet village near the coast.
