Bickington, Barnstaple, EX31

FOR SALE BY PUBLIC AUCTION (UNLESS PREVIOUSLY SOLD) A very spacious 4 bedroom end of terrace house - formerly a farmhouse - in need of general updating and refurbishment but benefitting from a sizeable level South facing garden and large garage/workshop.

The property is best described as "back to front" in that it actually fronts onto the main Bickington Road with pedestrian access but is usually approached from the rear, where it is tucked away off Tewsley Close with its level garden and garage at the far end. 

The ground floor comprises an Entrance Hallway, a cosy Living Room with an open fireplace, a large Dining Room with a gas fired Rayburn cooker and water heater that provides partial heating, a dual aspect Kitchen/Breakfast Room plus a Ground Floor Utility Room/Cloakroom. The First Floor provides 4 Bedrooms and a Large Bathroom with a coloured suite.

As previously stated considerable modernisation is required and this is reflected in the Auction Guide Price.

The village of Bickington is only 2 miles from Barnstaple and has a general store, post office, 2 public houses, hairdressers and Primary School in Tews Lane and an excellent bus service (21) to Barnstaple, Instow, Bideford and Ilfracombe. Barnstaple, the regional centre of North Devon, has a comprehensive range of independent shops and national retailers and the area includes well known beaches at Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe as well as Instow (4 miles).
