Description

This spacious 3-bedroom family residence presents a prime opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. Located within close proximity to Bideford Town Centre, this home offers easy access to local amenities, the scenic Tarka Trail, and recreational spaces such as the Polyfield Centre and various playgrounds, making it an appealing choice for families. Built in 1912, the house retains some original features that enhance its character but also indicates areas where modern updates could elevate its appeal further. The property boasts a charming front garden screened by mature hedges, contributing both privacy and curb appeal. Inside, the entrance porch welcomes visitors with attractive period tiling, leading into a spacious living room that benefits from a bay window and built-in window seat – perfect for relaxation. The separate dining room provides versatile space that could function as either a dining area or second reception depending on your needs. The kitchen is more contemporary, equipped with essential appliances and sufficient room for additional white goods. A ground floor cloakroom adds convenience while housing the recently installed gas boiler. The enclosed courtyard garden ensures low maintenance while providing an outdoor space for enjoyment. Among its unique features is a large garage which offers parking or workshop potential; additionally, there’s scope to create more parking space subject to planning permission. Upstairs reveals three generously proportioned bedrooms with ample natural light; notably, the main bedroom features its own bay window. An exciting aspect of this home is the partially developed loft space fitted with skylights and great ceiling height; this area holds potential for conversion into extra living space such as an ensuite bedroom or multiple smaller rooms if desired. Benefitting from a new roof installed in 2017 and being sold with no onward chain, this property blends character with practicality and presents an excellent opportunity for buyers keen on making their mark through renovation efforts.
