Upstairs, the first floor comprises four double bedrooms, all of which are spacious, along with a large shower room which includes in addition a wash basin, WC and large airing cupboard.

Outside, the property offers a driveway and a double garage, ensuring ample parking and storage. To the left is a mature area of trees and flowers, while to the rear, a large, mature beautifully landscaped and well-maintained garden, with bountiful apple trees, lawn, wild flower meadow, patio, and fish pond, provides a peaceful and sunny retreat. In one of the two greenhouses attached to the side of the house is a mature vine which provides delicious, sweet, seedless grapes in the Autumn. A small shed and enclosed gazebo complete the external buildings.

With its generous living space, excellent location, and proximity to local amenities and schools, this property represents a wonderful opportunity to create a long-term family home in a truly desirable part of North Devon.
