3 bed detached house for sale

Guineaford, Barnstaple EX31

Situated in a quiet unspoilt village, yet only 3 miles North of Barnstaple, a contemporary cottage-style detached 3 bedroom house with scope for improvement and extension (subject to planning permission) - set in compact mature gardens backing onto open farmland with garage adjoining.

Guineaford, is a sought after village where properties rarely become available. It is surrounded by open farmland with lovely walks, yet is only 3 miles from the easily accessible Pilton side of Barnstaple, the regional centre of North Devon, with it's hospital, shopping centre and leisure facilities. Places of interest nearby include Croyde, Saunton, Instow and Woolacombe with the rugged beauty of Exmoor National Park within easy reach. There is a primary school at Marwood (which also has a well known garden) and a pub, just over a mile distant.

Traditionally constructed by the sellers family, the property was built on cottage lines and whilst neat, clean and tidy and generally well maintained could benefit from some cosmetic updating or even extension, subject to the necessary consents.
