5 bedroom terraced house for sale

A substantial and deceptively spacious five-bedroom mid-terrace residence, arranged over three floors and positioned within comfortable walking distance of Ilfracombe’s town centre, harbour and everyday amenities. 3 Northfield Terrace offers an exceptional opportunity for purchasers seeking a sizeable period home with scope to modernise and add value.

The ground floor provides well-proportioned living accommodation, beginning with a bright front-facing lounge featuring attractive low-maintenance flooring and a character fireplace that creates a natural focal point. A separate dining room continues the theme of period charm, complete with its own feature fireplace and fitted storage cupboards to either side, offering both practicality and character. To the rear, the kitchen provides access to a private enclosed courtyard — a useful and low-maintenance outdoor space — which also benefits from an external WC.

The first floor hosts a recently installed contemporary wet room, stylishly appointed with shower, wash hand basin and WC. This level also accommodates two generous double bedrooms, one of which houses the gas boiler, together with a versatile single bedroom ideal as a home office, nursery or dressing room.

The second floor offers two further bedrooms, providing flexible space well suited to children’s rooms, guest accommodation, hobbies or additional storage.

Although the property would now benefit from a programme of modernisation, it presents significant potential to create an impressive and spacious family home or investment property in a convenient and well-established residential location. The generous accommodation, character features and three-storey layout provide an excellent foundation for enhancement.
