Accommodation

Entering in through the front door, the hallway provides access to all the main areas of the home. Both bedrooms are to the left, each double rooms also benefitting from fitted wardrobes and storage. The bedrooms are served by a modern shower room which was replaced only in 2023 - partly tiled with an enclosed shower cubicle, wash basin and vanity unit, WC and chrome heated towel rail. Additionally there is a handy storage cupboard in the hallway, while light floods in from the glass window and door into the main living space...

Walking in through here, you'll see the updated kitchen to the left, which is neatly compact with an array of wall and base units and drawers. There is also a range of built in appliances which include a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge & freezer, electric cooker and induction hob, while the composite sink is set into ample worksurface space. A partition wall divides the reception area, which has plenty of room for a dining table and chairs, along with a sofa suite and an electric fire providing the perfect focal point to the room. Undoubtedly one of the key highlights of this home is the stunning riverside views, direct from two newly replaced sash windows. The elevated sight over the water makes for a wonderful feature, as you can look towards the bridge and the town centre in one direction, while in the other towards Rock Park, both of which are just a short walk away.

Outside & parking

An allocated parking space belongs to the property, with additional visitor parking available too. On the ground floor of the building, there is a useful external storage cupboard which is handy for any tools, bikes, mobility scooters etc. Communal gardens to the front are beautifully kept with a wide range of established shrubbery and attractive plants filling the area with colour. A small seating area provides a peaceful place to sit and enjoy a spot of lunch, a casual coffee or host a BBQ.

Location

The property is located within the heart of the town of Barnstaple, conveniently positioned for every day amenities. Taw Court is accessed via Litchdon Street, although the rear of the building sits on Taw Vale and features gorgeous views over the river. In addition, the notorious Rock Park is just a stone's throw away, as is access onto the Tarka Trail. Barnstaple town centre is accessible by foot within just a couple of minutes, along with numerous well known and independent high street shops, supermarkets, department stores, pubs, cafes, restaurants and leisure facilities. The popular sandy surfing beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are within around 20-30 minutes drive, as is the border of Exmoor National Park. Along the A361, Tiverton Parkway train station with fast services to London Paddington can be reached in approximately 45 minutes, as can the M5 network and beyond, also from Junction 27 at Tiverton.
