Features and description

  • Three-bedroom semi-detached house
  • Front and rear gardens
  • Sea views
  • UPVC double glazing
  • Gas central heating
  • No chain
Set within a convenient position and enjoying sea views, this deceptively spacious semi-detached home presents a superb opportunity for buyers looking to put their own stamp on a property. The property offers front and rear gardens, gas central heating and UPVC double glazing. While the house now requires general updating, it provides an excellent canvas for modernisation and to add value.

The main entrance opens into a welcoming hallway with useful storage and stairs rising to the first floor. The lounge/diner is a good light-filled space, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. To the rear, the kitchen enjoys garden views and offers scope to reconfigure or extend, subject to the necessary planning and consents. On the first floor there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, making this an attractive option for families, first-time buyers or those looking for a coastal home. The bathroom is fitted with a traditional three-piece suite. A home with genuine potential in a sought-after setting.

Ilfracombe is a historic Victorian seaside resort and provides shopping facilities as well as other amenities such as a building society, library, post office, schools, cinema etc. There are a number of attractions within walking distance including Damien Hirst's now famous Verity statue situated on the harbour, the new watersports centre, the award-winning Ilfracombe Aquarium, the unique Tunnels Beaches and many more. You will find numerous events and festivals throughout the year, many based on the quayside at the historic harbour and at the prestigious Landmark Theatre on the seafront. There are many fine and award-winning beaches close by, from secluded coves to wide stretches of golden sand with crashing surf. Visit Hele Bay to the east of the town for good bathing and rock pool exploring. Putsborough, Woolacombe and Croyde are within easy motoring distance, whilst North Devon's regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 20 minutes' driving time.

Directions
From our Ilfracombe office with the premises on your right-hand side, proceed along Ilfracombe High Street and take the first right-hand turn onto Springfield Road. Continue up this road to the very top and take a left turn onto Highfield Road. Proceed to follow this road and take the third right turn into Whittingham Road. Continue up this road for a short distance where the property will be found on your left-hand side with a number plate engraved on the entrance gate.

Outside, the front garden is designed for ease of maintenance, while the rear garden is a good size, mainly laid to lawn with a decking area and perfectly positioned to enjoy the coastal outlook. Ample on-street parking is available nearby.
