Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
Link detached 3 bed extended bungalow requiring updating and refurbishment. Set within a most generous corner plot with the main garden enjoying a south facing aspect. Parking frontage for at least 3 cars and with a 32' long garage/workshop. Occupying a highly popular location being an almost level walk from the village shops, facilities and beach. Available for sale with no onward chain.

A mature bungalow originally constructed around the late 1960's of traditional design with labour saving facing brick exterior and a concrete interlocking tile roof covering and since then there has been a number of additions which has increased the accommodation and allowed for greater versatility.

The bungalow itself is in need of updating however the main feature is the generous sized garden plot with the main side garden benefiting from a southerly aspect.

Swanswood Gardens is a popular residential development being within an almost level walk of the village centre shops, promenade and seaside facilities. Westward Ho! has a long sandy beach which adjoins the Northam Burrows the home of the Royal North Devon Championship Golf course and there are also miles of unspoilt cliffside walks.

BUNGALOWS OF THIS NATURE WHICH ARE SET WITHIN SUCH A GENEROUS GARDEN PLOTS ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN AND SO THE AGENTS HAVE NO HESITATION IN RECOMMENDING AN APPOINTMENT TO VIEW.

Regular bus services commute from the village to the nearby village of Northam and the town of Bideford (3 miles).

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
