Tucked away in this peaceful cul-de-sac in the heart of Swimbridge is this lovely, detached, 2 Bedroom bungalow that is situated within walking distance of the communities’ amenities, schools and pubs.

The bungalow, inside, could benefit from some modernisation and is the perfect blank canvas to add your own personal stamp!

The accommodation briefly comprises a light and large Lounge, an open-plan Kitchen / Diner enjoying views over the garden and surrounding countryside, 2 good size double Bedrooms and a family size Bathroom.

The outdoor space offered with this bungalow is wonderful. There is a large private driveway to the front with parking for several vehicles leading to the Garage together with a lawn. The large lawned garden to the rear of the property wraps around the side elevation.

The property offers ample space and has the potential to extend, subject to the necessary planning permission. It is offered for sale with no onward chain.

The charming village of Swimbridge is nestled in rolling North Devon countryside conveniently located between the market town of South Molton and regional centre of Barnstaple.

Local services and amenities include an excellent village primary and pre-school, an historic parish church hosting a twice weekly post office service, a village hall and the well-known Jack Russell public house.

A regular bus service runs between South Molton and Barnstaple.

Barnstaple Town Centre, the historic and regional centre of North Devon, is surrounded by beautiful countryside and some of the area’s best beaches. As the commercial centre of the region, the town centre offers a variety of banking, schooling and recreational facilities including a theatre, cinema, leisure centre, restaurants and the North Devon District Hospital. The vibrant town combines modern shopping amenities with a bustling market atmosphere.

The A361 North Devon Link Road provides convenient access to the M5 motorway network and beyond. Exmoor National Park and North Devon’s famous surfing beaches at Croyde, Putsborough, Saunton (also with Championship golf course) and Woolacombe are all within about half an hour by car. The nearest International airports are at Bristol and Exeter.
