The regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 10 miles away. There are also good transport opportunities via the A361 Link Road which connects to the motorway network at Junction 27 of the M5 motorway or via the railway to Exeter
Description - One of Bideford’s finest period properties, this substantial Regency Town House presents painted rendered elevations beneath a slate roof. We understand that the property, originally known as Stowford House, dates from around 1820 and is Grade II listed as being of Architectural and Historical interest and boasts many original period features including detailed ornate coving, full-length sash windows and French doors. The accommodation is around 3560 square feet, arranged over 3 storeys, is versatile and could potentially cater for dual occupation. Externally the property boasts a large and private south facing walled garden which is a quiet, secluded oasis and a real rarity in this location. The property represents an ideal opportunity for a purchaser to 'stamp their mark' and is being offered with no onward chain.
Accommodation - The ground floor boasts an elegant entrance hall with mosaic tiled floor leading to a dual aspect drawing room and a double bedroom both with original sash windows and shutters to the front. To the rear of the entrance hall is a useful utility room/boot room, WC and door to the rear porch with access to the garden.
The first floor includes three impressive and versatile reception rooms, all benefitting from original French doors which lead out to balcony enjoying fine views. The family bathroom is also on this floor and includes a bath, shower cubicle, WC, sink and linen cupboard. The kitchen/breakfast room is a wonderfully light room with French doors to a raised terrace with steps to the garden. The kitchen includes a range of units, stove with electric hob, inset sink and space for all white goods.
The second floor includes five well-proportioned double bedrooms, benefitting from the original fireplaces in four of the rooms and all enjoying some fine views.
The lower ground which can be accessed from the rear garden offers an extensive cellar room with ample storage. electrics and access to the front.
Outside - The rear walled garden is private, secluded, south facing and larger than most would expect in this location. With a large terrace area, ideal for alfresco dining, stairs to the first-floor terrace with access to the kitchen/breakfast room and an almost ‘secret garden’ to the very back which is mainly laid to lawn and includes the original summer house with seating. A quiet, secluded oasis which is a blank canvas for the next owner.
