We are delighted to bring to the market 12 Oakleigh Road, a 2 Bedroom end-terrace home ideally situated within easy walking distance of Barnstaple town centre. Having been lovingly maintained for many years, the property now presents an excellent opportunity for a new owner to modernise and personalise to their own taste. Offered to the market with no onward chain, it is an ideal purchase for first-time buyers, investors or those looking for a project in a highly accessible location.

The property is approached via a charming enclosed front courtyard with a low stone wall and gated entrance. Stepping inside, a welcoming Entrance Hall leads through to a well-proportioned Living Room enjoying a pleasant front aspect. The room provides ample space for furnishings and benefits from useful built-in storage together with a Valor gas fire, creating a cosy focal point.

Positioned to the rear of the property, the Kitchen forms the heart of the home. Offering a generous range of wall and base units, there is ample space for freestanding appliances whilst enjoying an outlook over the rear garden. A useful understairs Cloakroom with WC provides additional practicality, and a rear door gives direct access outside.

To the first floor are 2 comfortable Bedrooms, both served by a 3-piece Bathroom.

Externally, the property enjoys a well-established south-facing rear garden arranged over 2 levels. The upper tier provides a patio seating area - perfect for relaxing or entertaining during the warmer months, whilst the lower section has been attractively landscaped with gravel and mature shrubs, creating a low-maintenance outdoor space. A timber garden shed sits to the rear, and a side gate provides useful pedestrian access.
