Park Avenue, Bideford, Devon

What a truly special and highly sought after location this property occupies. Park Avenue is a charming, leafy lane situated within a very short and level walk of Bideford Town Centre, the historic quay, a well-regarded primary school and, of course, Victoria Park itself. In fact, the property enjoys delightful views across the park from the bay windows of the principal reception rooms, creating a wonderful connection with the surrounding greenery. There is also plentiful permit parking available to the front for those times when the car is needed.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a particularly interesting and versatile period property that is currently arranged as two independent flats - a ground floor residence with direct access to the rear garden, and a spacious first floor apartment - both benefiting from this exceptional position. The property, therefore, offers a range of possibilities, whether as an investment opportunity, dual-occupancy living for extended family, or for those wishing to reconfigure back into a single dwelling, which could be achieved relatively easily with some internal alterations.

The ground floor flat is accessed from the main entrance hall and features a living room to the front with a bay window overlooking the attractive front garden and towards Victoria Park beyond. The bedroom is positioned to the middle of the property and enjoys direct access to the rear garden via a UPVC double glazed door. A centrally located shower room is fitted with a shower cubicle, a dual flush WC and a pedestal wash basin. Undoubtedly, the standout feature of the ground floor accommodation is the impressive kitchen / diner, extending to approximately 23’10 in length, offering an extensive range of units, multiple windows allowing for excellent natural light, a built-in 4-ring hob with extractor over and a built-in oven. There is ample space for dining and entertaining, and French doors open directly onto the rear garden, making this a superb sociable living space.

The rear garden is west-facing and enjoys a pleasant sunny aspect, featuring a paved patio area towards the rear, a stone chipping section for ease of maintenance and a useful side area providing additional seating space or practical storage for bicycles, surfboards or outdoor equipment.

The first floor flat, also accessed independently from the entrance hall, offers equally generous accommodation. The living room is positioned to the front and enjoys fantastic elevated views across Victoria Park via a large bay window. The bedroom is located to the middle of the property with a window overlooking the rear and includes an airing cupboard housing the boiler for this part of the building. A centrally positioned bathroom is fitted with a bath, WC and wash basin, while the kitchen is situated to the rear and is well-equipped, enjoying views over the garden.

Overall, this is a rare and exciting opportunity to purchase a flexible property in one of Bideford’s most desirable residential locations. Whether you are an investor seeking 2 income-producing flats, a buyer looking for multi-generational living, or someone wishing to restore a period home back into a single residence, this property offers enormous potential in a prime setting. An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the possibilities on offer.
