Detached house for sale in Mount Pleasant, Bishops Tawton, Barnstaple, Devon EX32

Situated in this sought-after village, this five-bedroom detached family home boasts stunning countryside views. The property has been exceptionally well cared for and maintained, yet offers fantastic potential for new owners to personalise and update.

Externally, the property is well-positioned on its plot, with a sizeable frontage offering ample parking and turning space, along with a double garage. The beautifully maintained gardens, which surround the property, enjoy a lovely south-facing aspect at the rear, with far-reaching views over the countryside, including Codden Hill and the river in the distance.

The accommodation includes a Main Entrance Porch leading into a spacious Entrance Hall with stairs to the first floor. There is a convenient Cloakroom, and the large fifth double Bedroom, which enjoys views to the rear. This bedroom is located near a ground floor shower room, making it ideal for a dependent relative or for future-proofing the home.

The Kitchen/Dining Room provides ample space for dining and includes kitchen units with a built-in double oven and plumbing, as well as an inset gas hob. This room offers tremendous potential and is a wonderful space for socialising and entertaining. A door leads to the impressive 33-foot Living Room, which benefits from abundant natural light due to its south-facing position, featuring two sets of sliding patio doors. The fireplace houses a gas-fired stove, adding warmth and character to the space.

From the Kitchen, another door leads to a side Porch, which connects to a Utility Room, larder, and further access to the double garage.

On the first floor, there are four additional double bedrooms. The smallest of these is currently used as a dressing room, with fitted wardrobes along one wall. The largest bedroom is dual aspect, with a door leading to the roof terrace.

There is a spacious family bathroom with a four-piece coloured suite and a large airing cupboard, as well as an adjoining cloakroom. With some reconfiguration, these two areas could be divided to create two well-sized bathrooms or shower rooms.
