Chapel Street, Tiverton, EX16

Tucked away on Chapel Street, just a short stroll from the vibrant heart of Tiverton, this delightful three-bedroom home blends traditional character with thoughtful modern updates. From its inviting open fireplace to the newly fitted doors and windows, it strikes the perfect balance between period charm and everyday practicality.

Step inside and you are greeted by a welcoming hallway that hints at the warmth and personality to come. To the rear lies a bright and airy kitchen-diner, where triple windows overlook the garden and flood the space with natural light. It’s a room designed for both family life and entertaining, with ample space for a dining table, a well-equipped kitchen, and direct access out to the garden for effortless indoor–outdoor living.

At the front of the home, the lounge is all about character. Exposed beams and wooden flooring give it a rustic warmth, while dual windows keep the space light and welcoming. The star of the show, however, is the open stone fireplace — a focal point that promises cosy evenings by the fire. Cleverly positioned media points within the chimney breast mean modern comforts are seamlessly incorporated without detracting from the room’s timeless feel.

Upstairs, fresh new carpeting flows throughout, creating a sense of continuity and comfort. The main bedroom, with its alcove perfect for fitted wardrobes, is spacious and serene, while the second bedroom offers another generous double. A versatile third room, currently used as a home office, looks out across the garden and would work equally well as a guest room or nursery. The family bathroom completes the picture, with its modern white suite, shower-over-bath, and heated towel rail.

The garden is another highlight. Set over two levels, the lower area is designed for low-maintenance enjoyment, with gravel and a raised deck that makes the perfect spot for al fresco dining or unwinding in the afternoon sun. Above, the upper garden offers a blank canvas for green-fingered buyers to create their own outdoor retreat.

Of course, a home is as much about location as it is about bricks and mortar, and here this property excels. Tiverton’s bustling market town centre is less than a quarter of a mile away, offering everything from independent cafés and shops to supermarkets, healthcare, and leisure facilities. Beyond the town, the rolling Mid Devon countryside is on the doorstep, while Exmoor National Park and the North Devon coastline are within easy reach for weekends away.

For commuters, Chapel Street is ideally placed. The North Devon Link Road connects quickly to Barnstaple and the coast in one direction, and to Junction 27 of the M5 and Tiverton Parkway in the other — where fast trains whisk you to London Paddington in around two hours. Exeter and Taunton are also close by, putting the cultural, retail, and business hubs of both cities well within reach.

With its blend of period detail, modern touches, and a location that combines convenience with lifestyle appeal, this is a home that offers far more than just a place to live — it’s a place to belong.
