The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
This impressive period residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire a flexible and income-generating property within easy reach of Barnstaple town centre. Arranged across three generous floors, the building is currently configured as two self-contained dwellings; a well-proportioned two-bedroom apartment on the ground floor and a spacious 2-bedroom maisonette above, each benefiting from their own private entrance.
The property combines classic character with practical modern living. Both units are ready for immediate use, whether for owner occupation, multi-generational living, or as a strong investment. The ground floor apartment offers comfortable living space, two bedrooms, a modern kitchen, and a contemporary shower room with separate WC, along with direct access to a private courtyard ideal for low-maintenance outdoor use.
The upper maisonette occupies the first and second floors and provides particularly versatile accommodation. Alongside two large bedrooms, there is an additional room suitable for use as a home office, dressing room, or nursery, plus access to a flexible loft room illuminated by a large Velux window. A well-designed kitchen/dining space, utility room, WC, living room, and a stylish family bathroom complete the layout, enhanced by high ceilings and retained period features.
One of the standout features of this property is the off-road parking provision, with space for up to four vehicles — a rare benefit so close to the town centre — alongside additional residents’ parking. There is also scope to reconfigure part of the parking area to create an outdoor space for the maisonette, should a buyer wish. The private courtyard garden provides outdoor space for the ground floor apartment.
Available with no onward chain, this substantial and adaptable property presents an outstanding opportunity for buyers seeking flexibility, character, and strong rental potential in a prime North Devon location. Early viewing is highly recommended.
