About this property

A substantial three bedroomed Edwardian family property having some original period features, a well proportioned lounge, spacious kitchen/diner, three double bedrooms, a self-contained one bedroom 'granny' annex and south facing patio garden. Very conveniently situated for local schools and not far from the town's amenities. EPC D

This substantial and much loved three bedroom family home, has been in the same ownership for many years. It is conveniently positioned for all the towns amenities being a short walk from the main High Street shops and Quayside and also handy for the local Junior and Infant School off Clovelly Road and Bideford Secondary College. The low maintenance patio garden enjoys a sunny, southerly aspect. It has the undoubted benefit of a one bedroom self-contained 'granny' annex.

Bideford is a market town and working port, which is located on the banks of the River Torridge and offers a good range of shopping, schooling and recreational facilities, with the popular Tarka Trail being within easy reach, together with easy access to the coastal village of Westward Ho! with its long sandy blue flag beach. The former fishing village of Appledore, with its quaint narrow streets and quayside and the estuary village of Instow, are both within easy reach. The North Devon regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 10 miles distant and the A361/North Devon Link Road provides a speedy route to the M5 motorway, via junction 27 at Tiverton.
