27 Fort Street is a substantial three-bedroom mid-terrace property conveniently situated within easy reach of Barnstaple town centre. Requiring complete renovation and modernisation throughout, the property presents an exciting opportunity for purchasers looking for a project and offers considerable scope to create a spacious home tailored to their own individual tastes and requirements. The property provides surprisingly generous and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors and, whilst extensive works are required, the size and layout offer plenty of potential for improvement. This could make an excellent opportunity for those looking to undertake a full refurbishment, whether as a future home or investment, subject to any necessary consents and regulations.

Upon entering the property, a useful entrance porch leads into a welcoming hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and access to the principal ground-floor accommodation. One of the particular features of the property is the spacious kitchen/diner. This generous room provides ample space to create a contemporary kitchen and dining area and offers a purchaser the opportunity to completely redesign the space to suit modern-day living. The lounge/diner is another particularly well-proportioned room, featuring two chimney breasts and offering plenty of space for both sitting and dining areas. The room has considerable potential to become an impressive main reception space once renovated.
Completing the ground-floor accommodation is a conservatory/lean-to, together with a ground-floor bathroom. Both areas require renovation but provide further scope for a purchaser to reconsider the existing layout as part of a wider refurbishment programme, subject to the relevant permissions and regulations.

Stairs rise to the first floor where there are three bedrooms. Bedrooms one and two are both comfortable double rooms, whilst bedroom three provides a useful single bedroom which could alternatively lend itself to use as a home office or study. There is also a cloakroom and a separate bathroom on this floor, both of which require modernisation. From the first-floor landing, stairs continue to the second floor where there is a further attic room. This provides valuable additional space and adds to the versatility of the accommodation.

Outside, the property has a small overgrown garden area to the front which is currently in need of attention. To the rear is a concrete courtyard overgrown with shrubs and trees which similarly requires landscaping but provides an opportunity to create a more attractive and enjoyable outside space. Permit parking is available on the road.


Overall, 27 Fort Street represents a fantastic opportunity for purchasers looking for a renovation project. The property requires complete modernisation throughout, but with four-bedroom accommodation arranged over three floors, generously proportioned living spaces and a convenient position close to Barnstaple town centre, it offers considerable potential to create a spacious and individual home. An internal inspection is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size, layout and potential this property has to offer.
