Bishops Tawton, Barnstaple, Devon, EX32

Tucked away in the peaceful village of Bishops Tawton, is this stunning Grade II listed semi-detached period cottage. The current owners have transformed this property over the past two decades into a beautiful family home, with four spacious bedrooms, a separate self-contained ancillary accommodation, and a landscaped rear garden, this property truly has it all.

Its idyllic location offers a sense of tranquillity, while still being just a short drive from the busy town of Barnstaple, providing easy access to all the amenities you could need.

The ground floor is full of period features that give it a warm and inviting atmosphere. As you step inside, you'll immediately notice the exposed wooden beams that run throughout the lounge, dining room and kitchen. The lounge is a cosy and comfortable space, and has the benefit of a wood burner, while the dining room offers a wonderful space for entertaining friends and family. The kitchen, thoughtfully designed for modern family living, also benefits from the rustic charm of the beams and offers ample room for cooking and socialising. Adjacent to the kitchen, the sun room provides an intimate space to relax.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with its spacious layout. The first floor boasts four well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which are generous doubles. The master bedroom is a true retreat, complete with an en-suite bathroom for added privacy and convenience. The family bathroom, also on the top floor, is tastefully finished and serves the remaining bedrooms.

One of the standout features of this property is the additional ancillary accommodation, which has recently been updated to provide a self-contained space, ideal for guests, extended family, or even as a home office or studio.

The rear garden offers plenty of space for outdoor living and relaxation, providing the perfect setting for all occasions. There is even space for a hot tub, allowing you to indulge in the ultimate outdoor experience. Surrounded by mature hedging and trees, the garden feels private and peaceful, creating a real sense of sanctuary.

To the rear of the property, a private driveway offers parking for several cars.
