3-4 Union Terrace, Barnstaple, EX32

A delightful and spacious first-floor apartment set within an elegant Grade II listed Regency building, enjoying an elevated position overlooking Rock Park with glimpses of the River Taw. Ideally located, the property is within an easy, level walk of the town centre and is offered for sale with no onward chain.

The accommodation briefly comprises a communal entrance porch and hallway with stairs rising to the upper floors. Inside, a private hallway leads to a bright sitting room featuring two sets of French doors opening onto a private balcony, perfectly positioned to take in the south-facing views. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units, a built-in oven and hob, and a newly installed gas-fired boiler providing both hot water and central heating.

There are two well-proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom completing the internal layout.

Externally, the property benefits from attractive communal gardens to the front, while to the rear there is an enclosed private parking area, a garage, and additional communal parking.

In our opinion, this is one of the finest apartments within the building, thanks to its elevated setting and sunny aspect. Rock Park lies directly opposite, offering excellent walking opportunities along the river and onward to the Tarka Trail, while the town centre—with its wide range of shops and amenities—is just a short, level stroll away.
