Details
The Forest is a beautifully presented, three bedroom semi detached home that combines a contemporary open plan layout with the warmth and character you’d hope for from a new home in the heart of North Devon. **Please note the internal pictures are of The Amethyst and all pictures have been digitally enhanced.**
As you arrive, an enclosed entrance porch gives a welcoming first impression. It’s a practical spot to kick off muddy boots after a walk on the Tarka Trail or a morning on the beach at Saunton, before you step into the hall. Inside, the quality of the specification is clear from the outset. The ground floor is finished throughout with stylish LVT flooring and benefits from underfloor heating, giving a comfortable and cohesive feel across the whole level. A cloakroom WC and a useful store cupboard sit just off the hall, keeping everyday clutter neatly out of sight.
At the heart of the home is a superb L shaped kitchen, living and dining space, measuring over 18ft across the rear of the house. It’s thoughtfully designed to bring the household together, so you can cook, eat and relax in one sociable room. The kitchen comes fully equipped with an induction hob and extractor, integrated dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge freezer, oven and microwave as standard. A choice of kitchen finishes and upgrades is available, subject to stage of construction, so there’s a genuine opportunity to put your own stamp on the space from day one.
The real showstopper is the wide set of aluminium bi fold doors spanning nearly three metres of the rear elevation. They flood the room with natural light and open straight onto the garden, so on summer evenings the living space spills outdoors for al fresco dining and long, light evenings.
Moving upstairs, the landing leads to three well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a lovely, calm retreat with a built in wardrobe and its own en suite shower room. Bedrooms two and three are both comfortable doubles, ideal for growing children, guests or a home office. A well appointed family bathroom serves the rest of the floor. Everything is finished with elegant Roca sanitaryware and brushed steel fittings, and there’s an airing cupboard on the landing for extra storage. Carpet throughout the first floor adds warmth underfoot.
The Forest delivers modern family living at its very best. Its open plan design and premium specification are backed by a 10 year Advantage warranty for complete peace of mind.Evergreen Way is a delightful cul-de-sac of bungalows and houses set on the outskirts of Barnstaple. The development as a whole holds an enviable position on the edge of Barnstaple with striking, uninterrupted views of the town extending out over to Saunton Sands with Lundy Island and the sea in the distance.
