Description

Nestled in a serene rural setting just north of Barnstaple, this spacious bungalow offers a rare investment opportunity for those looking to put their personal stamp on a property. Having been lovingly maintained by its owners since 1985, the bungalow is set within approximately one acre of mature gardens, presenting ample space for further enhancement. The large double garage/workshop adds valuable utility and storage options, while the property features essential amenities including LPG central heating and double glazing throughout. Internally, the generous living/dining room benefits from abundant natural light and charming period features, while the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast area holds potential for modernization. With three substantial double bedrooms and an additional versatile room that can be repurposed as an office or small bedroom, there’s flexibility to accommodate family needs or create dedicated spaces. Notably, significant loft space presents opportunities for expansion (subject to planning permission), allowing for even greater living space. Surrounded by picturesque countryside views and private terraces, this home not only promises comfort and tranquility but also encourages creativity in renovation, making it a unique prospect for discerning buyers looking to invest in North Devon’s desirable landscape.
