Set on the edge of Ashford village, this traditional stone terraced cottage delivers spectacular, far-reaching estuary and coastal views from the rear garden and upper rooms. The house offers comfortable, flexible living across two reception rooms and a well-kept kitchen, with three double bedrooms upstairs. Off-road parking for two cars and a large plot add practical value for families or those wanting outdoor space.
Practical benefits include solar panels with a feed-in tariff and immediate availability with no onward chain. There is potential to add a second bathroom if required and the sizeable rear garden offers scope for landscaping, extension or other external projects. Extra adjoining land is available via separate negotiation for buyers seeking more privacy or further development potential.
Be realistic about running and retrofit costs: heating is via electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, and the stone walls are assumed to have no insulation. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, which may affect home-working. These are straightforward issues to address but important for budget and lifestyle planning.
Positioned a short drive from Barnstaple and North Devon’s popular beaches, this cottage suits families or coastal lifestyle buyers who prioritise outlook, outdoor space and a peaceful village setting. The property is well maintained and ready to move into while also offering clear scope for improvement to increase comfort and energy performance.
