Set on a large corner plot in quiet Parkes Road, this three-double-bedroom semi-detached house suits families seeking space and convenience in Great Torrington. An extension has created an additional reception/utility area and enlarged bedroom space, so living flows well between the kitchen/diner, lounge and garden. The enclosed wraparound garden and multiple off‑street parking spaces are strong practical benefits for family life and hobbies.
The interior is bright with good natural light from French doors to the garden; the kitchen includes built‑in oven, gas hob and dishwasher, and a utility room provides extra storage and laundry space. Upstairs has three comfortable double bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Heating is by mains gas combi boiler and the house is double glazed (install date unknown).
Practical positives include freehold tenure, low council tax, very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and ultrafast broadband availability — useful for home working or streaming. There is no flooding risk and the property sits in an affluent, peaceful neighbourhood with easy access to schools, shops and the Tarka Trail for outdoor activities.
Notable considerations: the house dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and the extension means some rooms have irregular layouts. Double glazing install date is unknown and buyers should allow for routine updating or surveyor checks. There is one family bathroom only. The plot is large and attractive but will require ongoing garden maintenance if left as lawn and beds.
