Tucked away in a peaceful position along the ever-popular New Street, just a short stroll from Great Torrington's historic town square, this charming and characterful three-bedroom home offers a wonderful blend of period charm and modern-day living. Having been thoughtfully extended over the years, the property now provides spacious and versatile accommodation perfectly suited to family life, entertaining and those seeking a home within walking distance of the town's excellent amenities.
Upon entering, you are welcomed into an entrance hall which immediately sets the tone for the home. The heart of the property is undoubtedly the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. Created through a sympathetic extension, this superb room offers a sociable environment where family and friends can gather with ease. The kitchen provides an abundance of cabinet and worktop space, complemented by a breakfast bar ideal for casual dining or morning coffee. There is also space for an under-counter washing machine and dishwasher without compromising the room's generous proportions.
To the rear, the living area enjoys a wonderful outlook over the south-facing garden. A large sliding door creates a seamless connection between indoors and out, allowing the garden to become an extension of the living space during the warmer months. Benefitting from a southerly aspect, natural light pours into the room throughout the day, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere.
Stepping down a couple of stairs from the entrance hall leads to the original sitting room. Rich in character and charm, this cosy retreat offers a more intimate space to relax, showcasing the home's heritage and providing the perfect setting for quiet evenings beside a lamp or with a good book.
The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms. Two double bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobe storage, while the third bedroom is a comfortable single room, also featuring useful built-in storage. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower over, pedestal wash basin and WC, whilst an airing cupboard provides additional practical storage.
Outside, the south-facing rear garden is a particular highlight and enjoys an excellent degree of privacy. A small patio area immediately outside the property provides the ideal setting for al fresco dining, summer barbecues or simply unwinding with a glass of wine after a busy day. Beyond the patio, the garden rises gently to a lawned area, creating a wonderful space for children to play, pets to roam, or keen gardeners to personalise and enjoy. The greenhouse offers the opportunity to grow your own fruit, vegetables and seasonal plants, making the garden both productive and enjoyable throughout the year. Whether you're entertaining family and friends, creating a colourful cottage garden, or simply enjoying the sunshine from a deckchair, this outdoor space offers something for everyone.
Adding further versatility is a useful outbuilding located opposite the front door. Benefitting from power and lighting, it could serve as a workshop, hobby room, garden store, home office or studio space, depending on individual requirements.
The property is offered to the market with the significant advantage of no onward chain, allowing a smoother and potentially quicker move for prospective purchasers.

The town is perhaps best known for Torrington Commons, an extraordinary 365 acres of common land surrounding the town, providing miles of scenic walking, cycling and riding routes.
