Hillsborough Park Road, Ilfracombe, Devon, EX34

Spacious Family Home with Stunning Views & Full Planning Permission for a Second Dwelling

Tucked away in a peaceful and elevated position on the periphery of Ilfracombe, 10 Hillsborough Park Road presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious four-bedroom end-terrace home with exceptional potential.

Set in a quiet residential area, this well-maintained property boasts superb rear-facing views and offers generously proportioned, well-balanced accommodation ideally suited to family living.

The ground floor features a bright and welcoming tiled entrance hall, a large living room, and a beautifully lit dining room flooded with natural light. The well-appointed kitchen/diner provides access to the rear decked terrace — a perfect spot for outdoor dining. Additional ground floor features include a WC and a versatile garage space currently being used as a utility room.

Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to three double bedrooms and one single bedroom. The principal bedroom benefits from a modern en-suite shower room and a walk-in wardrobe. A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The home is equipped with gas central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout.

To the rear, the extensive sloping garden descends toward Hillside Road and offers outstanding gardening potential. A decked sun terrace and a lower patio area provide multiple outdoor seating options. Beneath the property, a large store room offers excellent space for bikes, tools, and garden equipment.

Development Opportunity

A standout feature of this property is the full planning permission granted for the construction of a highly individual, modern detached dwelling within the rear garden. Designed to blend seamlessly into the hillside, the proposed new home will enjoy the same stunning views and include vehicle access via a reconfiguration of the existing property’s ground floor — specifically the removal of the current kitchen, WC, and garage/utility space.

This is an exceptional opportunity for developers or buyers seeking multi-generational living options, a secondary income through holiday letting, or the chance to create a bespoke modern home alongside a traditional one.

Full planning permission:

In summary, 10 Hillsborough Park Road offers a rare blend of comfort, space, privacy, and development potential in one of Ilfracombe’s most desirable and peaceful locations.
