Description

This well-built three-bedroom family home, constructed in 1912, presents a promising opportunity for those looking to invest in property in Bideford. Ideally located with convenient access to the town centre, Tarka Trail, and local amenities, this residence is surrounded by green spaces such as the Polyfield Centre and playgrounds. The property retains some of its original charm while also offering modern touches that will appeal to families and investors alike. A mature hedge at the front adds privacy and enhances curb appeal, complemented by a tidy lawned garden. Inside, the entrance porch features attractive original tiling that leads into a welcoming living room with a large bay window—ideal for relaxing moments. The dining room adjacent provides flexibility in usage, whether for family meals or as an additional reception area. The kitchen is stylishly fitted with contemporary appliances and generous space for essential utilities. A handy ground floor cloakroom adds practicality to the layout. The courtyard garden outside demands minimal upkeep yet offers potential for outdoor entertaining, accessible from both the house and garage. This garage not only serves as parking but could be converted into a workshop or additional storage. Upstairs hosts three spacious bedrooms with the main one enjoying a bay window that enhances its size further. Notably, the loft area has been partially improved and features skylights that allow ample light; with some investment—such as adding insulation and installing a staircase—it can be transformed into an exceptional living space or additional rooms. The bathroom comes equipped with a three-piece suite bathed in natural light through its large window. With a new roof installed in 2017 ensuring durability, this home is available chain-free and holds significant renovation potential—making it an excellent choice for both first-time buyers seeking character and investors eyeing growth potential.
