This is an amazing opportunity to acquire this almost iconic house which is situated in the very sought after village of Heanton Punchardon. The house stands in a commanding central position looking down through the road with views towards Braunton Burrows and on to Lundy Island in the distance. As it's name suggests, this unmistakable red brick house has shuttered windows and is very pleasing to the eye. The house offers NO ONWARD CHAIN, so it can be purchased very quickly. without any delays.

Red Brick House offers delightful accommodation which, although is very livable, requires improvement and up grading. However, there is plenty of scope and potential to extend the property into the very large garage which is attached to the side. This will provide further living space to the house but will still allow for a good size garage. We recommend a viewing to fully appreciate the character and potential of this charming house.

To the first floor there are 3 good size bedrooms which have lovely open aspects to Lundy in the distance. There is a large bathroom and separate WC which require updating. Furthermore, there is a very useful study which could make for an occasional 4th bedroom.

There are some flowers, shrubs and gate to the front and double side gates.The rear patio garden has flower beds and shrubs which provide privacy. There is access to the garage and rear garden gate.
