Details
We are delighted to offer to the market, this well presented 3 bedroom semi detached family house. Due to the stunning, far reaching views, this is one of the most sought after roads in the village. Only when viewed can these views be full appreciated. Down Lane is set the very edge of Braunton and is elevated over the village, so can be clearly seen when entering Braunton from Barnstaple.
The house offers many features but the first thing you notice are the bright south facing rooms. There are attractive stripped doors with white handles an finger plates and the picture rails are still in situ and some floors have been stripped. The front room has a woodburner with Portugese granite lintle over.
You enter the house from the side porch and entrance hall. The front living room takes full advantage of the south facing views with full height windows which allow the maximum light to flood in. This is a very comfortable room with a door giving easy access out to the wonderful front deck which has a hot tub and pergola. The good size kitchen/ dining room also has a wood burner whilst the kitchen is nicely fitted with a good range of base units with beech work surfaces. Wall cupboards have under lighting which add warmth and there is a built in gas hob, double, eye level cooker and dishwasher. There is a door to the outside and under stairs storage area. The landing to the first floor has a door to each room. There are 3 good size bedrooms, 2 of which have stunning views, whilst the shower room is very well appointed.
To the front, there is an off road parking deck for 2 cars. Below this is a very uesful covered store area which allows for hanging clothes during rainy days and, there is a gardeners loo and laundry area with plumbing. The gardens are a delight. Immediately from the living room is a wonderful and good size decked area with a built in hot tub. A wisteria covered pergola provides shade whilst you sit and take in the spectacular views, or simply relax in the hot tub and survey the view over Braunton and beyond. The lawned garden leads to a vegetable space. At the the bottom of the garden is a good size gym/ office which is ideal to work from home.
We highly recommend a full viewing in order to appreciate this very comfortable home which offers a pleasing and relaxing atmosphere. The views are breathtaking and these can be fully admired from the front rooms especially the comfort of the living room, or the hot tub and the deck which could be througout the year!!

These are a mecca for surfing enthusiasts and renowned throughout the world. Saunton also offers an excellent golf club with two championship courses.
There is a regular bus service which connects to Barnstaple, the regional centre of north Devon, approximately 5 miles to the east. Here a wider range of amenities can be found including The Queens Theatre, a brand new leisure centre, covered town centre shopping at Green Lanes and out of town shopping at Roundswell. There are further super stores on offer whilst The North Devon Link Road provides a convenient route to the M5 motorway at junction 27.
