Property information from this agent
About this agent
The office conducts the sale and letting of all town, village and country property and land throughout North Devon. As the regional office, Barnstaple works closely with Stags' two other North Devon offices at Bideford and South Molton. The Barnstaple office covers an area from Instow to West Exmoor, and inland to meet the boundary of South Molton. This includes an extensive stretch of coastline, as well as the Taw and Torridge Estuaries, which keeps the firm's Waterside Property Department extremely busy. North Devon is a wonderful place to live, work and visit. It is special for its people, its culture and its beautiful environment - most of it is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
