The property occupies a generous plot with ample parking for four to five vehicles.

With a strong community spirit, four characterful (and sometimes lively) pubs, a nearby school, and a local church, there truly is something here for everyone.
Stepping inside, you’re welcomed by a spacious entrance porch, ideal for coats, boots, and shoes. The hallway leads through the bungalow to a generously sized lounge, which enjoys views towards Saunton – a perfect space for relaxing or entertaining family and friends.
The recently refurbished kitchen includes an open-plan kitchen/breakfast area, great for social gatherings. It features a range of built-in storage cupboards and plenty of preparation space – ideal for those who love to cook.
Down the hallway are three well-proportioned bedrooms and the main family bathroom, which features a shower over the bath and a modern white suite.
