The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
Set in the heart of South Molton and arranged over three floors, this is a substantial property with an adaptable layout and a strong sense of space throughout. While it would now benefit from some updating and modernisation, it offers excellent scope for a buyer to improve and personalise a home of real scale in a highly convenient setting.
Entry from the rear leads into a hallway with a ground floor cloakroom, staircase rising to the first floor and access into the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units and work surfaces, with direct access to a separate utility area with plumbing for white goods.
Beyond the kitchen, the sitting and dining room is undoubtedly one of the most memorable parts of the property. This is a notably large reception space with plenty of room for both seating and dining, centred around a substantial stone fireplace with log burner that gives the room real character and presence. There is also a useful understairs cupboard.
On the first floor there are three good size double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk in wardrobe cupboard, while the landing also has a large storage cupboard. The bathroom is a generous size and fitted with a bath, wash basin, WC and corner shower.
The second floor attic room adds further flexibility and is a bright additional space with a rooflight and sloping ceilings. Taken as a whole, the property offers a rare amount of internal space for the town centre, and although some work is now required, it has all the makings of a very spacious family home with plenty of potential.
AGENTS NOTE: The property at 12a Barnstaple Street is subject to a flying freehold arrangement, whereby part of the first floor of the adjoining property, 12 Barnstaple Street, extends over sections of 12a, specifically the rear entrance hall, utility room, ground floor WC, kitchen and recessed area in the lounge.
