South Street, Braunton, Devon, EX33

An opportunity to acquire a generous and unique period home set in the heart of Braunton village.

This double fronted property dates back to circa 1860 and has accommodation arranged over 3 floors, comprising living room, sitting room/study, kitchen/dining room, laundry room, ground floor WC and rear porch.

On the first floor are 4 bedrooms and a 4 piece family bathroom and on the second floor are 2 additional bedrooms, one having the benefit of an en-suite shower room and good eaves storage.

Outside, there is a low maintenance frontage, whilst the rear is really tucked away and is quite unexpected for a central village property. There is a 5 bar gate which leads to a stone chipped driveway which the current vendors have parked 5 cars. There is also a timber garage, workshop and store in this area. A pedestrian gate from the drive leads to the enclosed rear garden which has a mix of lawn, deck and other seating areas to follow the sun. There is also a shed which formerly housed chickens as well as another timber store/workshop.

All the above along with the character features such as ornate fireplaces, wooden floors, sash windows picture and dado rails, original stove in the kitchen really do make this home something special.

Braunton is reputedly the largest village in England and offers a wide range of amenities including local shops, supermarkets, community centre, medical centre, primary and secondary schools, churches and a range of popular pubs and restaurants. The renowned Tarka trail can be accessed from the village and this follows the Taw and Torridge estuaries. Close by is the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of Braunton Burrows, the largest sand dune system in the UK as are the glorious sandy beaches of Saunton Sands, Croyde, Woolacombe and Putsborough Bays. North Devon has become the 12th location to be selected as a World Surfing Reserve. Saunton Golf Club is near by and with its renowned championship East and West Courses - links golf at its finest – it is a test for even the most experienced golfer.
Coming into Braunton on the A361, at the Velator Roundabout, take the first exit onto Velator Way. At the next roundabout turn right, heading towards Tesco and then take the first right again into South Street. Follow this road up, passing the turning into Barton Lane and then take the lane on the left, just before the first thatched cottage. Follow this lane around to the right and continue across the stone chipped drive and in front of you will be a timber garage and workshop with a 5 bar gate on the right. Park inside the gate and a member of staff from Webbers will meet you here to show you around.
