Details
A spacious two-bedroom bungalow set in a highly desirable location, within easy, level walking distance of Westward Ho! village, its fantastic amenities, and a regular bus route linking you to Bideford, Barnstaple, Braunton and Ilfracombe. The property makes an excellent retirement home and also offers scope for further development into the roof space (subject to the necessary planning consent).
Approached via a private, level driveway, there is ample parking for a couple of vehicles, along with level access to the single garage and a side gate leading to the rear garden. The front door opens into the entrance hall, which provides access to a large lounge featuring a bay window and fireplace, creating an attractive focal point.
Opposite the lounge is one of the bedrooms, a good-sized double that could alternatively be used as a dining room if desired. Further along the hallway is another double bedroom, as well as the main bathroom, which has been tastefully updated and now features a modern white suite and a convenient walk-in wet room shower.
The kitchen/diner is located at the rear of the property and provides an excellent space for entertaining family and friends. There is ample room for a four- to six-seater table, and the kitchen offers a range of built-in storage cupboards along with plenty of preparation space for those who enjoy home cooking. Leading off the kitchen is a charming sunroom, providing additional seating space or an ideal area for coats and boots. There is also a convenient WC.
Externally, the property is designed for low maintenance. The front driveway is concreted, with an attractive border to the right-hand side, and the frontage offers an ideal space for pots or raised beds. The rear garden is private and features a patio area, perfect for outdoor dining and enjoying the majority of the day’s sunlight. It also includes a useful timber shed and is fully enclosed, making it ideal for pets. There is pedestrian access to the garage, as well as an up-and-over door.
