Broadclose Road, Sticklepath, Barnstaple EX31

A strong-value canvas for someone wanting to shape a substantial family home rather than pay for a recent makeover. At £400,000, the asking price works out at about £185 per sq ft, well below the local average of £320 per sq ft—a compelling entry point for a detached house with three reception rooms, three double bedrooms, two garages and generous, established gardens.

The photographed interiors look usable but dated, giving scope to refresh finishes and flooring and consider how the separate living spaces could work best. The kitchen is also stylistically dated but appears intact. The maintained gardens, workshop/garden room and potential to remodel or extend subject to consents add to the project’s appeal. The £7,000–£16,000 renovation range suggests a light-scale refresh; the overall opportunity is especially strong on price and economics, while location is a more average part of the picture.
