Property description

Enjoying picturesque views over Bicclescombe Park, this well-maintained three-bedroom detached chalet bungalow boasts a generous rear garden, offering both space and serenity in a sought-after location.

Nestled in a highly sought-after and peaceful residential area of Ilfracombe, this beautifully presented 3/4 bedroom detached bungalow enjoys a truly enviable position?elevated to provide sweeping, uninterrupted views across the picturesque expanse of Bicclescombe Park and the rolling countryside beyond. With the tranquil sounds of the park's stream and the lush greenery just moments from your doorstep, this property offers a rare blend of suburban comfort and the serenity of nature.

Bicclescombe Park, widely regarded as one of Ilfracombe's most cherished open spaces, is quite literally on your doorstep. Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee watching the sunrise over the park's well-tended lawns and ornamental gardens, or taking a leisurely afternoon stroll along its winding paths, tennis courts, and duck ponds, the lifestyle this location affords is truly idyllic. This unique setting makes the property ideal for families, retirees, or anyone who appreciates peaceful surroundings with easy access to green space.

The bungalow sits in a commanding position, enhancing its sense of privacy and affording light-filled interiors that take full advantage of the panoramic views. Inside, the home has been lovingly maintained and offers flexible and generous accommodation throughout. The wide and welcoming hallway leads to a bright and airy living space that can be configured as either three or four bedrooms, or alternatively as one or two reception rooms, depending on your lifestyle needs.

The principal bedroom, located on the first floor, is a particularly lovely retreat featuring its own en-suite, perfect for added privacy. A well-equipped kitchen, spacious utility room, and a contemporary family bathroom ensure the property meets modern expectations while retaining a warm, homely feel.

Adjoining the rear of the bungalow is a versatile garden room/workshop, which is complete with a shower, wash basin, and W.C. In the past, this area has been integrated into the main living accommodation and could easily be repurposed again?perhaps as a home office, guest suite, or hobby room.

Outside, the landscaped front garden welcomes you with mature planting and steps leading to the front door. Ample unrestricted on-street parking is available, ensuring convenience for both residents and guests. However, it's the rear garden that truly captures the heart?with beautifully maintained lawns, a sunny aspect, and elevated vantage points that frame the park and surrounding scenery in ever-changing seasonal beauty. Whether entertaining guests or enjoying a peaceful afternoon in the sun, this garden is a private sanctuary.

Ilfracombe's vibrant town centre is just under a mile away and easily reachable via a relatively level walk, while essential amenities such as the local medical centre and a nearby bus stop are within a short stroll. This combination of accessibility, charm, and location makes the property an exceptional opportunity.

In summary, this delightful bungalow not only offers comfortable and flexible living, but its prime location right beside Bicclescombe Park makes it a rare find in the local market. Early viewing is strongly advised to appreciate all that this wonderful home has to offer.
