Martin Road, Barnstaple

ABOUT THE PROPERTY

Occupying a generous corner plot and offered for sale with no onward chain, this three-bedroom semi-detached home presents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to create a home tailored to their own tastes. The property is currently undergoing a programme of updating, allowing the new owners the chance to choose their own decorative finishes and, if desired, undertake further improvements to maximise its potential.

The accommodation is well proportioned and briefly comprises, on the ground floor, an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway, a cloakroom/WC, and a spacious dual-purpose lounge/dining room with doors opening onto the rear garden, creating an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining. The fitted kitchen is equipped with a range of contemporary high-gloss wall and base units, providing ample storage and workspace.

On the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms together with a family bathroom, offering comfortable accommodation for families, first-time buyers or those looking to downsize.

Externally, the property enjoys gardens to both the front and rear. The front garden is enclosed and easy to maintain, while the rear garden is also enclosed and has recently benefited from new fencing to the side and rear boundaries, together with gated access. A mature hedge along the side provides an excellent degree of privacy, and the garden has been designed for low-maintenance enjoyment, complemented by established planted borders.

An external store/workshop, complete with power and lighting, offers useful additional storage or space for hobbies and DIY projects.

With its generous plot, ongoing improvements, and scope for personalisation, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a well-located home with the potential to add value and create a property to suit individual requirements.

NB. We believe that the property may be of non-traditional construction; however, it is currently mortgageable.
