Property description

An elegant and rarely available Grade II listed Georgian residence, this double-fronted period home is perfectly positioned just a short walk from the centre of Ilfracombe, the historic harbour, and the stunning North Devon coastline. Set in a desirable location, the property offers a unique opportunity to acquire a character-filled family home with generous proportions, a walled garden, and versatile outbuildings.

The property showcases all the grace and symmetry associated with Georgian architecture, including sash windows, balanced proportions, and beautifully retained period features. On entering, a welcoming central hallway leads to two spacious and beautifully presented reception rooms. The formal lounge and elegant dining room both feature striking original marble fireplaces, high ceilings, and large windows that flood the rooms with natural light, offering inviting spaces for both relaxed living and entertaining.

To the rear of the property, a large and characterful kitchen/breakfast room blends traditional charm with functionality. An exposed stone wall creates a rustic focal point, while the gas-powered Rayburn adds warmth and a timeless aesthetic. With plenty of room for a dining table, this room serves as the heart of the home. Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility area with space for laundry appliances and further storage, as well as a downstairs WC for added convenience. Furthermore, there is a two roomed basement, adding further storage solutions.

Upstairs, the accommodation is equally well-proportioned, comprising four bedrooms ? Three comfortable doubles and a well-sized single, which would also make an ideal home office, nursery, or dressing room. Each room enjoys individual character, with the larger bedrooms benefiting from generous natural light and pleasant views. The main bathroom is well appointed, with potential for modernisation or reconfiguration to suit a new owner's needs.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A private walled garden at the rear offers a peaceful and enclosed outdoor space, perfect for relaxing, dining, or gardening. A charming brick-built greenhouse sits to one side, ideal for those with a passion for horticulture or those seeking a unique garden feature.

Of particular note are the generous outbuildings. The property benefits from both a double and single garage, providing secure off-street parking and storage. Above the garages is a spacious and versatile room currently used as a home office, making it ideal for remote working, creative pursuits, or even further conversion, subject to the necessary consents. This additional space enhances the property?s flexibility and potential, appealing to a wide range of lifestyles.

Situated within easy reach of Ilfracombe?s town centre, local amenities, schools, and coastal attractions, this property offers the perfect balance of historic charm and modern convenience. The town is known for its vibrant arts scene, independent shops, and access to scenic coastal walks, all within minutes of the front door.

This exquisite Georgian home, with its blend of period elegance, spacious accommodation, and rarely available outbuildings, represents a unique and compelling offering in one of North Devon?s most desirable coastal communities. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the lifestyle and potential this distinguished home provides.
